Nine and a half minutes before they go through a few settings, then only do teh metalz!
Chappers is knob, but do like the dark terror.

Too much distortion for me.
I liked Iron Man riff tho

.

BTW cool name for amp, sounds like something that Ozzy would dig

It does sound pretty sweet for the liquid metal sounds though

I went to town at lunch today and played on a Dark Terror. Was good fun. Ridiculous amount of gain on tap. Difficult to dial in a really nice medium crunch tone, but I guess that that's not what this amp is about. Had volume at around 10 o'clock and with the gain around the same place it was staying relatively clean. Proper gain seemed to kick in around 12 o'clock and anything after 2 o'clock was too much gain to be useable for me.
The tone was good though, not as fizzy as I had expected, nice meaty bass...but not really tight enough for really tight metal riffing if you ask me. But then Orange amps are not those kind of amps generally.
I think that coupled with a Tiny Terror and an ABY box, that would make a quality set up. However, for that price I'd just get a two channel Orange head.
Didn't have chance to try the fx loop but is a great addition for the old reverb if nothing else.
Overall, really fun to play, but I won't be getting one as it doesn't do anything one of my other amps can't do.

I was playing one today... I think it's really good !! and I thought it was tight and very defined. Shape knob is great !!

... where as the standard is too dark (ironic) and wooly in comparison. Thumbs up from me.

Would like to spend some more time trying it though.

It's like watching Top Gear. They even have a Stig.
