Lorsque les musiciens le demandent, Orange réalise leurs désirs? Pensée suite au succès planétaire de nos têtes d'ampli Dark Terror et Dual Dark, la Micro Dark n'est pas là pour amuser la galerie mais bien pour sortir le vitriol !! Tout d'abord, elle dynamite : sa section de préamplification à lampe 12AX7 est revue et corrigée pour offrir un déluge High Gain sans précédent, des distorsions jamais entendues sous un format aussi petit? Ensuite, elle disperse : son réglage Shape fait de vous le maître des mediums. Ce simple potentiomètre offre une interaction complète sur l'ensemble du spectre sonore. Passez de la virulence trashy d'une égalisation aux médiums creusés à la puissance punchy d'overdrives riches en mids d'un simple mouvement de potar? Enfin, elle ventile : sa sortie HP en 8-16 Ohm vous permet de brancher sa furie sur tous les baffles, sa prise casque avec le circuit CabSim offre en écoute une simulation de HP 4×12? Voice Of The World, sa boucle d'effets bufferisée à basse impédance assure une transmission du son sans compromis à vos pédales?Habillée du revêtement noir de la série Dark, c'est avec classe qu'elle délivre tout son potentiel. Faut reconnaître? c'est du brutal !!!

Q et R
Question: Is this loud enough to gig with?
- demandé le Oct 12, 2024
- demandé le Oct 12, 2024
Répondre: That would depend on the gig.
20 watts of solid state power will be enough for small gigs playing jazz or acoustic music.
It will not be loud enough for hard rock or heavy metal.

this little amp kick some major butt, matters not what cab I've used, 8" 12" and my 4x12, and if you think 20 preamp Watts won't come to life in a 4x12, boy ... have I got news for you !!! only using HOF2 reverb, and an Empress Heavy .... not many on board knows and only 1 switch, for power, no footswitch for effects loop as such, and why would there be another switch for effects, they turn on and off on their own.
I love the dark tones, and only play metal for the most parts, have a TC 30 for that, but that's another review lol

I don’t usually write reviews but for this one I had to… can’t say enough good things about this! The sound is immense and super loud, it’s so light and portable it’s not even funny! The gain is so well saturated, the fx loop is fantastic. For this price you can’t go wrong. I have my heavy watt tube amp for live gigs and band practice but for jamming at home, save your tubes and get one of these!

I got his little amp to have something small to practice at home and Jam, it is Loud, sounds amazing and looks freaking cute with the 1x8 matching cab...Works great both as pedal platform or on his own. BUT my issue was with the FX loop, when you se the Fx loop there is a lot of noise and the volume decreases, I tried with different pedals on the Fx loops and always happened the same, looked online and seems to be a known issue. So if you are planning to get it for the FX loop, think again, but other than that signal loss the amp sounds great.

This thing is crazy. Through a 2x12 or 4x12 you can get huge rock tones, metal as well, but honestly needs a boost to really scream. Another cool thing is since its just 1 preamp tube, you can experiment freely with tubes. Hot Ax7’s , Gold Pin tubes work killer with this(smooths out the top end), 12at7’s for cleaner and crunch style stuff! Now the headphone jack is cool. Sounds fine , though not amazing, it doesnt sound like crap like someone said, just nothing super amazing. There is no effects loop switch popping sound because there is no fx loop switch, so no idea what that other reviewer is talking about. There is an fx loop though and its great . The think I dont like too much about this amp is using the headphone/emulated cab output for recording. Again its okay and nothing horrible, but would never use for an album or anything. Thats where Orange should have somehow gave an option to turn the cab sim off so you could use your own cab sims. Heres the good news. Since this amp has a Solid State power amp you dont need a load attached, so heres what you can do. Go from the Speaker output into your Interface(line in) and that will give you the raw signal from the preamp and power amp with no cab emulation. Then you can use your own. The downside is you cant mic a cab and record a direct signal (at least not that way) . You could use a line splitter to do it. Also you could then use the headphone output as a direct monitoring solution with 0 latency, but if you wanted the sound of your cab sim in the Daw, that would be just fine and latency shouldnt be an issue. Anyway Ive gigged and recorded with this amp and its a no bull straight up rock machine. Killer for taking on trips or for mobile recording/practicing. Its not a novelty, its kcks serious but. Is it as harmonically rich and nice as.a 4000 dollar tube amp. Maybe not, but its its own sound none the less, and oh ya, its super super loud. Can hang in any band or live situation.. The tone knob is very versatile as well and usuable across the whole range.

This amp, like everyone else says in their review, is exceptionally loud. I know for a fact it is loud enough to Use in a live band situation. I use it at home however for practice and it is an excellent pedal platform, as it has a wonderful clean sound. If I wanted to use the amp’s natural distortion at home I would go deaf doing so. So I push it with a overdrive or a big muff pedal. Sounds excellent. What a great amp.

What a killer little amp! If you want to rock, roll and scream, this little guy will do it. I hook it up to a Marshall 4x10, a single 12 Celestion Cab or a custom cab loaded with Celestion Ten Thirties, and it always exudes tons of character and grit. The effects loop makes it really easy to hook up a reverb pedal, just in case you miss the 'verb.
But don't stop there!
Reduce the gain, turn up the volume and tweak the shape knob, and you can dial in a gorgeous jazz tone. Yes, jazz. Jazz as in Wes/Lenny/Grant smooth, clean, warm lovely jazz. Same cabs with my Eastman archtop and I'm in II-V-I heaven.
If I'd spent twice as much I'd be just as happy.
By the way, I only gave it 4.5 /5 for features because of the lack of reverb, but that's not really a big deal. Oh, and if you want to have even more fun, undo the four screws that hold the top on and swap the 12AX7 for other varieties of tube.

I like this hybrid head & 1 x 8 ext. cab. This is good enough for my practice sessions in my condo & is a step up from my old Dean Markley K20X.. I just wish it was actually made in the UK.

I've always liked hybrid amps. I was looking for a lighter & less expensive hybrid (or tube) amp-which isn't easy to find.
I had considered various Orange models including the Micro Terror & Micro Dark.
I liked the Micro Dark better due to the midrange control. It allows me to dial in a variety of usable tones.
I played it through the matching cab & through a 4x12--and it sounded great on both.
Unlike some other reviews here--I like the headphone sound, but it sounds best through a cab/speaker.
It does cost more than the Micro terror, but is worth the extra for the midrange control & if you like an effects loop you get that too.
I got mine used so I paid less than a new Micro Terror as well.
I would recommend checking it out.

Went into the L&M with the intent of buying a Katana 50. Tried the Katana and was "meh"..impressed. Noticed Orange in the corner and decided to try it and wow..I put this through a Marshall 4X121960A and it was just amazing. I also put it through a 2x12 (can't remember the cab) and it was fantastic too.
I ended up buying it, without regret or hesitation even though I don't have cab yet :) That should say something...I've always gave the smaller, digital modelling and solid state amps support..but after trying a true tube amp. There is no comparison. 20 years of playing and never having a tube amp, I can honestly say "Yes, tubes are worth it and yes, you will notice a difference."
L&M staff were very helpful, as always, assisting me while I tried this through 3 different cabinets (2 different Marshalls). The 1960 sounded..alive and full! There is a reason these are sought after.
This amp has basic tone controls which may seem lacking but it really isn't. The tone is pure, simple, and great. You really can achieve a vast variety of sounds using the gain, contour and presence alone. I could get a warm blues tone to a full metal overdrive and then go back to a subtle tube crunch. The tube breaks up when it should and colors the sound so well.
In terms of volume: I couldn't believe this small thing put out so much without effort. I had it pushing pretty loud without the volume near 50 percent and there was more room available if needed. Keeping up with a drummer or filling a pub would not be an issue with the right cab.
The Headphone output is not a valuable feature to this. It does represent the audible output even close. I'm thinking it may be useful if you want to capture the shaped sound in a DAW and then apply a cabinet I.R.
After my test drive, I plugged back into the Katana and now that my eyes and ears have been opened, there is not even a moment of consideration for the Katana at this point.

This little amp is likely the best value in the lunchbox category. Sounds great clean (dial the gain down, and volume up). Lots of crunch on tap when you start turning the gain up. I've used this to drive both the 8" and 12" cabinets. Surprisingly loud for its size!

Played this little amp in store and was blown away by its tone and volume. I run it through an old marshall 4x12 cab and I run pedals through it on a cleaner setting. Played a small basement gig the other day and it kept up with my buddy's 30w crate amp. The effects loop and headphone jacks are a nice bonus. This little amp is great for metal and nicer on the ears than the micro terror. If you're on a budget and can't afford a 1000$ amp , buy this thing you won't regret it!!!

this is the greatest little amp I've even had and the best value I've ever spent in my life, on Anything. all I really wanted was a preamp 'pedal' for feeding the guitar to the PA. this little guy has an emulated DI built into the headphone jack, so I figured.. why not? I was so impressed I bought a 1x12 cabinet to go with it. the clean tones are amazing, and the dirty tone is phat and juicy. what more could you want? dual channels and a footswitch? (yeah.. sure.. ok).. but for the money? this is the single best amp on the market. hands down.

I have the Micro Terror and got this as an extra mostly due to the effects loop feature. Amazing tones and huge sounding. I play this through a 2x12 cab and it can hold it's own with a drummer and for small to medium live gigs. A must buy!

FIRST OF ALL I do have to mention something about the amp. IF you prefer using an FX Loop instead of running pedals to the front of the amp then you should use buffered pedals OR have the first pedal in the path be a buffered pedal. Otherwise you will get that horrible popping sound some others have mentioned. Other than that slight issue the amp is great! It has gotten me over a drummer and cuts through a mix pretty well. It can do some really sweet cleans and some really nasty aggressive metal tones without getting muddy and flubby in the low end when you set the tone control right. It currently is my main amp because I really only play at home or at a small venue such as a bar so I dont need anything big. If you are gigging at any larger of a venue then you may want a different amp, but this definitely will give you more than what you need if you only play small shows.

I gotta agree with the other reviewer on this one. This amp good, but not great compared to the other amps in this series. The headphone option is very disappointing, it`s one the reasons I bought it. This amp doesn`t even compare to the Micro Terror, that thing is a freak. I also own the Dark Terror and doesn`t come close to it either. It does sound pretty good through a Mesa 1x2 cab and it sounds great through a Marshall 4x12 cab.

I just picked this up to take with me when I visit family out of province. It really does sound great through a cab with good speakers, and it's loud if you need it to be. I put a BBE Sonic Stomp, TC HOF reverb, TC Corona Chorus, and an MXR 10 band in the loop and it takes the amp to a new level. However when I switch the loop effects on/off there is a POPPING sound that's very annoying. Also the headphone jack sounds like ass! Very harsh. If that is what an Orange 412 cab is suppose to sound like I would never buy one.lol. Could be my headphones, but they sounded great when used with a Line6 PODXT pedal.
Overall, it's a great sounding little amp when used with a good cab, but due to the issues with the loop and headphone quality I have to say it's not worth the money I paid for it (just over $300 with tax).

Protégez votre investissement avec la Garantie de fiabilité Long & McQuade.
Une bonne garantie est souvent un facteur décisif au moment d’un achat. Étant donné qu’une réparation peut être très dispendieuse, les manufacturiers n’offrent en général qu’une protection limitée d’un an couvrant seulement les défauts de fabrication. Lors d’une acquisition aussi importante que celle d’un instrument de musique ou d’une pièce d’équipement, vous voudrez avoir l’assurance que votre achat sera protégé de façon adéquate.
C’est pourquoi Long & McQuade offre une année GRATUITE de sa Garantie de fiabilité sur la plupart de ses produits. Cette couverture, qui bonifie celle du fabricant, vous procurera la tranquillité d’esprit que vous recherchez.
En quoi la garantie Long & McQuade se distingue-t-elle de celles des autres fabricants?
