Axe " Matchless DC 30 " ..... looking for video / audio clips ?

Hi all

I'm a current non-Fractal owner -but- am on the waitlist for an AX8.

I am looking for / trying to find audio/video clip examples of the Axe doing the Matchless DC 30 - in particular the EF86 side [ Ch 2 so to speak ].

Anyone here have any such clips or has links to any such clips.

Many thanks,
Ben
 
Didn't know that :(

I have a DC30 [ clone ] ...... and don't get me wrong - the 12AX7 side [ Ch 1 ] is fantastic -but- the EF86 side [ Ch 2 ] grinds and cuts like no other EL84 amp I have ever used ...... glorious is the only word that comes to mind.

I'm quite surprised - the DC30 [ original ] is arguably the best sounding [ EL84 ] amp ever designed ... its the ultimate Vox Normal/Top Boost Amp ..... but better ....... more harmonic chime ..... a touch more mid-range body and [ like the old Vox's ] the use of the EF86 in Ch 2 just takes it to another level ..... it is almost the original "boutique" amp.

Would be interesting to know why Fractal chose only to model the 12AX7 side [ Ch 1 ] and not the EF86 [Ch 2] side ......... its like modelling a Vox AC30 Normal Channel but not the Top Boost Channel ....... doesn't make any sense to me ?
