ENGL® are back with a vengeance with their latest capture series to grace the Two notes Archives, the X-Series!

Enter the ENGL® E412 Vint80 XS Heat, inspired by a vintage 80’s ENGL® E412 cabinet retrofitted with Eminence®’s Texas Heat and Swamp Thang drivers mounted in an X pattern; with this capture, the primary mic’d driver is Eminence®’s Texas Heat.

When you’re in the market for an all-American guitar speaker with a touch of British voicing thrown in for good measure, Eminence®’s Texas Heat is a one-stop-shop! Pushing a well-rounded warm and fat tone with lashings of top end bite and clarity, it’s primed for a bluesy tone that cuts through any mix with ease. For this capture, ENGL® raided their legacy archive and unearthed a true gem – a vintage 80’s ENGL® E412 enclosure. In a nutshell, it’s everything you need to empower your tone with the perfect blend of vibe, power, presence and definition, all underpinned with ENGL®’s legendary next-level tonal prowess!

For players seeking even more tonal versatility, pull back the mic and brace yourself for the thick, chunky and expansive tone of the companion Swamp Thang driver. Better yet, open GENOME and load this in parallel with its sister ENGL® E412 Vint80 XS Rougarou capture for the ultimate twin-driver mic’ing experience – trust us, it’s your fast-track to unleashing the full potential of this capture in all its might!

It’s a stone hard fact: If ENGL® puts their name on it, it meets their exacting standards when it comes to the all-important tone department. The ENGL® E412 Vint80 XS Heat has been expertly captured using an in-demand collection of mics and is available individually, or as part of, the ‘ENGL® X-Series’ DynIR cabinet collection.
