Two Notes Torpedo C.A.B. M+ Speaker Sim

Magic box

10 years ago I would not have believed in such sorcery.

It really simulates a cab. Very good if you have an amp head and want to play into the headphones or to record during the night.

Too bad it does not have an attenuator so it's hard to play with your amp output switched to high settings.

It has a lot of free virtual cabinets to use, also it offers may more for sale.

Good magic box.

Great Cab Sim, Studio and stage gear!

Got it for my home studio. Spent some time to figure out all the functional and was very surprised and happy when dialed my first sounds. I like to use real guitar preamps as sound forming gear and my goal was to use my own IRs. And Torpedo does well! Ever more: I liked some of internal cabs for my music. And for Bass guitar it is the best gear I ever had even after real Ampeg SVT stack! I just picked bass cab, turned on preamp and amp simulation and that's it! Very powerful rock bass, very versatile and sounds like real recorded stack! For guitar there are millions of options. I have 6 string strat and 8 string guitar. They both sound great with CAB M+. Will use in studio. Thanks!

Best pedal on my board

By far the best pedal I own, this completely gets rid of my need for an amp and ensures that my guitar sounds the same in every venue I play in. 10 out of 10

Great on bass

Bought this to be able to play in my apartment, but I think I’m bringing this to the stage as well.

Great on bass, pretty cool on guitar. Lots of possibilities.

Great tone, but everything else... like a cheap toy yet

Sounds great! E.g. here I play with Torpedo only:

And now BUTs!

- Onboard pre-/power amps produce white noise. Not related to guitar (you can unplug everything, but noise remains) nor to ground lift, because it is internal noise of the software like some free plugins have. You can play with it, but if you want to record - you will have it audible on the record. If I connect any of my tube amps instead of onboard pre and power amps, there is no noise, everything is quite. So, real amps with all transformers and tubes are much more quite than digital modeller in CAB M+ :) Friend has CAB M - exactly the same noise. Google it - others have it too.

- Constantly disconnects from phone. On the second day app on the phone does not see my Torpedo at all. So, can not use phone to tweak anymore. But tweaking with knobs is a headache...

- Did the last update and it ruined the noise gate. Now at any settings if you don't play for a several seconds, it goes into some hibernate state and then first note will come always witha long fade in!

A must-have for me

I bought this product because of several reasons, and this one suits them very well.

I live in London, a rent a room, and I can’t play on my Deluxe Reverb amp.

I need to use the AUX and headphones input.

I was skeptical about amp simulators, but when I tried this, I almost don’t see a benefit to carry my amp around London on public transport anymore. It’s not possible to carry an amp all the time and everywhere.

If you know that the location will provide a PA, you can take this one, and you can have a sound of any amp you want.

I play in a duo. I have an acoustic guitar and an acoustic Marshall AS100D amp, I play R’n’B, Motown, and Soul stuff, so I need to carry my Marshall because a singer can plug a mic in. But to play my repertoire on acoustic guitar, after a gig I feel that my fingers will fall off, I would like to play my Gibson ES-335, but it’s not a good idea to plug it into my acoustic Marshall. So now I can take my C.A.B. M+, plug into my acoustic amp, and have a sound of any other amp. I would like to carry my Deluxe Reverb but then a singer doesn’t have where to plug a mic. So this gadget solves this problem.

It’s like a D.I. box, so I can use it when recording. I can send my sound to the FOH. Or easily connect my electric guitar in any radio/broadcast situation.

The choice of amps is fabulous, you can try them for free and purchase only the ones you love. No need to have a huge collection of amps in your room.

There are an EQ and reverb control, it’s more than enough.

The app is amazing. Controls are simple.

Cons

I would love this to have a MIDI control.

There is no ON/OFF switch.

I don’t look at this as extra stuff, it’s a must-have for me. I cannot imagine my playing an electric guitar without it.

Excellent outil

Première chose, un fois deballé, il faut mettre à jour le produit pour avoir toutes les denières fonctionnalités. Facile, on branche le cable et on se laisse guider par le support de Two notes. On gagne un simulation de pre ampli, un noise gate, une reverb et une égalisation 5 bandes. Autant de pédales dont J#ai annulé l'achat.

Je l'utilise soit au bout de mon pedalboard ou soit entre mon ampli et la load box (il faut donc 2 cables speaker, important).

J'utilise soit l'interface sue l'ordinateur, soit celle via bluetooth sur le téléphone mais je fais pleins de choses avec les 2 boutons et le petit écran aussi. Ayant untilisé pendante des années un Boss GT-3, J#ai l'habitude des eptits écrans. Etrangement, pour démarrer l'application sur mon téléphone, je dois etre en mode avion puis reconnecter le téléphone au réseau, sinon l'apllication prend des heures (sans exagérer) pour démarrer.

Niceau qualité du son, c'est vraiment très bon. Du coup j'ai revendu mon Mooer radar. Toutefois, le logiciel Hall of Fame vendu avec les torpedo captor sonne un tout petit peu mieux à mon avis mais c'est vraiment marginal.

Un achat que je conseille.

Easy to use and fantastic sound

This unit works very well with my Ampeg PF-50T for silent practice. The amp can run wihout load (cab) and I'm using the DI out into the pedal by using an XRL->6,3mm jack adapter cable. I use it in IR Loader mode and it just sounds absolutely killer. The phone app works great to tweak and store my preset. It's a set and forget pedal for me. Some people might want to switch between a few different setups but I'm just looking for that one good tone. This pedal does that very nicely.

The software is very bad!

I really liked the tone from the default presets, but the software is very bad and I couldn't make it work. The two notes support did not reply so I decided to send back the unit. The control flow from the knobs on the unit is also not very intuitive.

I also got the cab M and not the cam M+, which was disappointing since there is a different feature set and a different set of cabinets included.
