Orange has delivered: The new Terror Bass is a monstrous bass amp in a diminutive package, delivering 500 watts of pure power (at four ohms, 250 watts at eight ohms) along with an all-valve preamp section to coat your bass tone in warmth. All types of bass players have been considered within the redesign, as the Terror Bass contains a Pad switch (-6dB) on the front to accommodate those with active pickups, as well as an all-new Clean toggle that increases clarity and headroom and smoother tone. The back of the Terror Bass includes a Limiter switch that prevents the four-ohm output from driving the speakers too hard. The familiar three-band EQ and Gain knobs return once again to terrorize your bandmates and audience. - Hudba

Scott, this has to be one of the better demos I've seen for a bass amp. Thank you. I also appreciate that you didn't have to "slappa da bass" like many other demo videos to showcase its versatility. Instead, you focused on what the amp does well, which allows the bass player and instrument to create a fundamental bass tone (lacking in a lot of Class D amps). When I have the financial means, I'll be sure to pick up one of these for myself. Also, I'd be interested to see how the amp plays with different pedals.
actually it's because this amp doesn't sound so good with this technique
Bingo... my sentiments exactly! A major factor for me would be "How well does this thing handle Steve Harris bass lines?", and this thing crushes it!
I always say out loud, when is "insert demo player" going to play the bass and stop slapping it? Even Larry Graham only slapped occasionally; he spent most of any song playing his bass.
couldnt agree more my friend
Loved the Joy Division in the beginning.
And The Stone Roses followed by The Smiths.
Sounded like Public Image by Public Image Ltd
@@beardybeerreviews2720 its definitely shadowplay by joy division
Great demo. Excellent job.
One of the best bass overdrive tones on CZcams,fantastic video and playing
Sounds amazing! Definitely getting one.
Such clean playing.
An excellent demo with sensible bass playing and great explanation....I'm having one!
Man that amp sounds gooood. Great playing too dude. Love that Precision.
Really loved the joy division intro. Saw your band like 20 years ago, good times.
What a awesome video. This amp sounds great. A little tube monster. Very impressive
The best amp around. Def want this new version.
excellent demo - perfect really - not too much chat and a lot of varied demonstration - I think I need this!
Jhon Baker thanks so much man. I tried to throw it all down on this one. Song clips, isolated clips, Controls, practical usage, etc. Hopefully it gives everyone an solid idea of what does. It’s classic Orange basically!
I have the original....when Orange discontinued this, I shook my head...glad they brought it back.
Great Demo! Think I want one...
Loved the Hush! I had the Terror 1000 it was very nice. I got darker tubes and was very nice. I decided to go with the Ampeg PF 800 and it seems to give a little more authentic old school sound. But I love them all........
Some great demos on this amp out there, but this was by far the best. I just bought this amp and play an Epiphone Jack Casady, so was stoked when I saw you playing that in this demo. Killer playing and super informative. Just subscribed. Thanks man!
How are you liking the Terror Bass thus far? I really want one and love the tone from this review. I read in forums that Orange amps have a mushy tone that gets lost in a mix. You know how forum talk goes! Any thoughts?
The deep purple sold me on this bad boy! Orange is thriving right now!
Still digging the OTB500?
I learned Hush because I heard the bass line is this demo and was like, whooaaaa, I got play that.
And now I'm itching for this amp. I haven't pulled the trigger yet.
That was great. Thanks.
Great demo, great playing. Seems like a quality amp :)
That sounds bloody good!
Dammmn that was a good demo!!
Awesome player and sound.
Wish these had footswitchable drive, but damn that sounds amazing!
I love that you said it will power an 810! Ive been searching everywhere for an answer to this as every video has it paired with the new 112 cab they are trying to sell. Im mainly a guitar player and the only bass cab I have is an ampeg 810 and a lightweight head would help a ton as that cab weights a ton! Thanks for this review!
Yeah, I figured many people would be wondering. It’s not even working that hard powering it either. I don’t know how they come up with these ratings, it’s got significantly more juice than my Aguilar Tone Hammer.
I had the old version of this amp and loved it! Found it suited a passive bass better than an active one. Loved setting it so it would break up if you really dug in.
How's the midrange character? From this video, seems that the midrange is nice and present (not scooped).
Nice review
Great demo of that amp... looking for a bass amp the Terror might be what I need!
Tower of Power. I can dig it.
Came here as I'm going to be borrowing this for a gig on Friday, really looking forward to playing it now! Have a feeling I'll go out and get one myself afterwards :-)
How was it? Did you buy one?
@@jake-qc2wu Really enjoyed playing it, sounds great and very portable. Owner was really happy with it too! Not sure I'm playing enough yet to warrant my own, but if I was going to buy an amp this would be it!
Damn dude, you're kinda fucking awesome!!! Smashing all vids start now!
Man so tubey sounding. Think I’m in love!
Clean , dirty, muffled, all great tones most guitar players and/or producers would yearn for in a bass player...And, a real bass player giving a review...
underrated vid
P-Bass and Orange...match made in heaven! I
Thanks for the demo. This amp is a bit too muddy for my tastes but it def has its own flavor.
Nice. The Smiths. I heard that.
@3:23 sounds so good!!!!!
Um dia ainda chego lá!!! 🤘🏼
🤘🏼Não costumo fazer isso, mas esse eu faço questão de compartilhar 🤘🏼
Sounds great for rock. Would you recommend this amp for a funk, jazz or R&B player?
Hello man, can you compare Ampeg PF 500 vs this Orange T.B.? I have Ampeg in rehersal room with AMPEG 8x10cab, but that is the rig of band member, so wondering what could be nice for me. Favourite genres are black and sludge/stoner/doom. I think Cab will do big difference too, but still curious, how worthy Orange is.
Is that little amp very expensive it sounds great combined with THE ORANGE box I really like it I would. Love to own this 😅
I have the original 500 watt terror bass. Fantastic amp. It’s been through some stuff and still works like a charm. Only thing which broke was the small black impedance switch on the rear 😂 I believe it’s stuck on 8ohms would be great to know though aye,.. eager to get it fixed though as I want to run two cabs for a gig incoming soon!
How does this compare with the old model?
Thanks for the vid! Sounds great
Love this. Not crazy about a single 12 for 600 bucks. 3x10? That would have been awesome.
That's the best non standard (fender jazz pj) bass sound .
What is the cabinet used in this AMAZING review? Thanks
I think it's an Orange 1x15.
7:27 "Bring it up a little more"
*Cranks the treble knob all the way up*
The name of this track ? 2:15 (Great amp by the way!Most probably gonna purchase this Christmas.)
Did I hear some Jane‘s Addiction around 8:07?
YOU KNOW IT
What was that song for the 60's combo vibes demo?
“You’ve Got to Funkifize” by Tower of Power
@@bassadelica awesome, thank you!
If they had to add one or maybe two things without getting too crazy and ruining a good thing. 1. A foot switch out for the gain stage so I don't have to walk over to the amp and press the button. 2. di level out that does not change your front end volume. Other then that great amp, plenty of power and good tones for dirty clean and dirty dirty.
I LOVE the "P" sound.Is it an american Prec?Original pickups?What compressor is used after the signal chain?
Danijel Brezec it’s a stock 78’. No compressor
@@bassadelica Wow , you have incredible touch and technique.Terror 500 will be my future live amp.Thanks for posting quality videos for bass players.
@@bassadelica Excellent P bass tone. What strings do you use on it?
Eduardo Omana thanks so much brother, they are Thomastik-Infeld flatwounds. Many years ago, a friend had asked Pino Palladino what he used, so I tried them and love them. Expensive, but they’ll never need replacement (unless I break one!)
@@bassadelica Thanks man, I have to try those!
fun fact about speakon jacks...you can just plug a 1/4" into the middle of it.
Any one used this with a fender 4 x 10 rumble cab only.. whats the verdict??
Anyone run this through an Ampeg Classic 810e?
You along with so many other people are presuming that all eq at 12 oclock is flat, which is not the case. Bass and treble are boost only (flat full ccw) and mid is cut only (flat full cw)
flat full counter clockwise for bass and treble?...and flat full clockwise for mid?
any one know the difference between the new and old versions? Is it the pre section?
asarge519 yep, the input section is completely different. Modeled after AD-200. The first version didn’t have the clean switch and was more of a one-trick pony. I believe the cooling system was also improved, which is critical on these Class D amps.
@@bassadelica hi, i realise old reply from you but the latest one ( with clean switch) therefore is better built, sound better and more reliable ?
@@virgomonkey68 yeah both, it sounds better and more versatile than previous, but is also more reliable because they fixed cooling issues that the 1st version had thermalling and shutting down
@@bassadelica thankyou so much...nearly got involved in buying an older one as i type...luckily i looked closely...and thanks to you...appreciated
If I use two cabs from from both the speaker out puts. (Cabs are 4 ohms) …should the amp be at 8 or 4 ohms???
4 + 4 = 2ohms / 8+8=4 ohms
Damn it I really wanted to see you play that Casady Epiphone
would you suggest the 15 cab or go with 2 12 inch cabs ?
A dark green pickguard against a white body is a criminally underused color combination for guitars and basses. I recently bought an Olympic white MIM Fender Mustang PJ bass. The mint pickguards for these basses were a terrible decision by Fender.
Mint looks okay with Olympic White, but they sell the same pickguards with Torino Red, Sonic Blue, Buttercream, Capri Orange, Lake Placid Blue and Seafoam Green. I think, that mint looks pretty bad with about half of those body colors.
This guy's bass looks pretty nice and modern, with that green aluminum look, but I'm an old guy, so went with something a little more retro-ish. I bought a pearl green pickguard to go with my cream colored Dimarzio replacement pickups. I have all the parts and I can tell that it's going to be beautiful. I already have the pickguard on now and my bass looks like a piece of delicious candy. Ha ha!
this and a 4x10 will be my touring rig. sold. :)
Can you share you're experience? I'm about to purchase the exact same setup! Thanks in advance
Hey man, would you mind telling us how it went with that rig? Looking at something similar :) Thank you!
covid19 cancelled our east coast thing i havent bought it yet. Bummer
@@xTOILETMASTERx Right...that. Didn't realize how recent your comment was. Oh well, thanks for the response!
Please check how the EQ works! At 12 it's not flat.
True, but it is mid-way in the controls’ functionality
Did the P bass have flats on? Thanks
Yes. All the other basses had rounds. Thanks (trying to appease everyone)😂
So many players wanna go EQ crazy. Flat is the designers vision for the optimum sound.
Yes if you want to EQ do it before the amp.
What mic did you use to record the Bass?
M Audio “Sputnik” (inexpensive tube mic)
I prefer the Ob1
why?
@@pattonPwr The OB1 is a class A/B solid state head with a footswitchable overdrive section.
I have both the older Terror Bass 500 & the OB1-500. Both are really good, both have their place. I'd say the OB1 has a more sensitive EQ, a little more versatility.
What’s plays clean tone best
Would have liked to hear more clean volume to see how the ss compared.
What is he playing at 11:54?
lokilxix sounds like the song “begin againers”
Barbarism Begins At Home?! Hell yeah lol
What strings did the P-Bass have?
These are Thomastik Infeld flats
2:12. Bitchin
What’s the last song plz?
Bongwater Jones “You’ve Got To Funkifize” Tower of Power
ugh Class D
I heard the fans on these are kind of loud. Any thoughts? I’ve never used one.
tom cobb redesigned cooling system actually which was part of the issue with the original thermalling. It’s not obnoxious at all. Basically no louder than any other Class D on the market, but I will say with all that space and ventilation it should last longer.
Thanks for the great demo! Just enough talking and lots of actual playing. The line at 3:24, which song is that from? Cheers!
Iron Maiden - Wrathchild
What the riff at 11:47 ?
Some improvised thing I’ve meant to make a song out of for about a decade 😂
Damn, I think my VCR must be acting up, keep seeing squiggles ...oh wait...;)
Shadowplay
Are Dishwalla still a thing?
No footswitch?
Anton Giusti What terror do you know of that has channel switching ?
aunt jenifer Obviously none, but surely it would be useful to switch channels?
It has only one channel so what do you want to switch?
🤣🤣
The Smiths!
MAIDEN!!
Joy Division, The Stone Roses, Fuckin' Maiden...
is this amp capable of big stage?
if you can't play a big stage with 500w you're doing something wrong
Looks like it should running a grow light
Orange, for the people who want to spend a thousand dollars so sound like shit
I'm sure Geddy Lee and Glenn Hughes agree....

Well, it's good to be in the lead for something!
