FROM BEDROOM TO HEADROOM | TWIN CHANNEL | APPROVED BY BRENT HINDS
A TRUE CHANNEL SWITCHING TERROR
With an individual voice and character the Brent Hinds Terror is its own beast. Designed in collaboration with Mastodon’s Brent Hinds, the amp features two channels and a new gain structure that makes it a completely unique Terror.
The single control on the natural channel has been redesigned with more bottom end but retains the finely balanced and highly playable character of the Rocker series. The dirty channel has a different 3 stage gain structure. It’s brighter at lower gain levels and fattens up the more you dial the gain in. The new gain structure also means that the gain comes in more quickly.
Power switching options of 15, 7, 1 and 0.5 Watts make it perfect for bedroom, studio, and stage. Using the beefy Terror transformers, the Brent Hinds Terror is able to take full advantage of the EL84 output section, giving players the ability to create warm valve compression and saturation at neighbour friendly volume.
“I’m honored and proud of how great this amp sounds! It’s a representation of my dream tone!”

That’s got a lot of meat to it!
Super versatile, totally transportable.
This amp offers a lot in a small package and puts a bit of a spin on the classic orange tone!
If you can’t afford a motorcycle, BUY THIS AMP INSTEAD!!!
Chris Vinnicombe demos the Brent Hinds Terror
It’s easily my favorite of all the Orange amps I’ve played
If you’ve been longing for some grinding, fizzy, Mastodon tones, this is well worth a try.
Rich high-gain sounds. Beautiful clean tones. Portable and affordable.
ALL ANALOGUE | CLASS AB | PROPRIETARY CLASS A COMPRESSION
Amplifiers for the most discerning bassists
The 4 Stroke Series is our offering to the demanding modern bass player – everything you need, and nothing you don’t. Featuring all-analogue circuitry throughout, the 4 Stroke 300 & 500 speak with genuine authority, delivering powerful tones with a natural and rounded emphasis that leaves Class D amps in their wake. The Class AB 4 Stroke stays crystal clean and expressive all the way up, without ever becoming sterile or fatiguing.
The centrepiece of these amps is the uncompromising tone stack which allows for an unparalleled level of control over the EQ without the fussiness that plagues so many. The active four-band parametric EQ covers an enormous range and opens up limitless possibilities. Whether you need to sculpt your signature sound, bring out the character of your instrument or combat troublesome acoustic environments, the 4 Stroke deals with all comers in an instant. For the finishing touch, our proprietary Class A compression circuit tracks seamlessly, adding further punch and fatness. On the rear, you’ll find the usual essentials: two parallel speaker outputs (min. total load 4 Ohms), plus balanced and line level outputs. Available in 300W and 500W configurations, the 4 Stroke Series is the perfect tool for the contemporary bassist – powerful, usable, musical.
All Analogue Design
Trusting our ears and moving away from Class D technology altogether, the 4 Stroke is 100% analogue throughout. At the point of entry, the 4 Stroke features a new all-discrete Class A input buffer circuit. This contributes to crystal clear note definition and a highly detailed response, accurately reproducing even the most subtle nuances under your fingers. The Class AB output section (available in either 300 or 500 Watts) ensures these amps stay composed and assertive, whatever the venue. This design also means the 4 Stroke can also be used without a speaker load, perfect for direct recording in the studio.
Active Four-Band Parametric EQ
The Four-Band Parametric EQ gives you complete control over your sound. Featuring four independent frequency controls, each with up to 18dB of cut or boost, the 4 Stroke’s Q curves have been engineered to achieve the perfect balance between precision and usability. Below are some examples of the sounds you can achieve.
Rock Grit Sounds
To give you that real old school punk/rock bass tone, boosting the frequencies is the way to go, cutting the low mid frequency around 220Hz also helps the other frequencies to jump out. 3000Hz frequency being boosted to near full will give a crunchy tone.
Smooth Sounds
Getting a smooth bass sound is simple with the 4 stroke, as seen below boosting the treble and cutting the lower and upper mids will give you a perfect rounded bass tone.
Parametric bands:
- Bass: 40 – 400Hz
- Low Mid: 80 – 800Hz
- High Mid: 250 – 2.5kHz
- Treble: 550 – 5.5kHz
(Crossover between bands allows for even more cut/boost when required)
Footswitchable Class A Compression
Rather than a common hard limiter, the 4 Stroke’s Class A compressor design maintains the transients of the input signal for a dynamic playing response. The carefully developed sidechain has a fattening effect on the core tone at lower compression settings, whilst increasing the amount of compression adds a springy character to the attack, great for heavy thumb work. With just a simple level control (much like many classic studio units), the compression can also be engaged or defeated remotely with the optional FS-1 footswitch.
Slap Bass Sounds
Using the 4 Strokes inbuilt compression in conjunction with the 4 band EQ by boosting the bass and treble while cutting the mids will give your slap bass a real punchy sound.
Class AB output stage. This is for a different animal. We have a 4 band parametric EQ which you can dial in any bass sound that you want.

600 WATTS | EMINENCE NEODYMIUM SPEAKERS | ISOBARIC DESIGN
HIGH POWER, ISOBARIC DESIGN
Building on the success of our SmartPower series, the new OBC212 is our best isobaric bass cabinet yet. This clever design positions one speaker behind the other, creating an airtight, phase coherent chamber for outstanding projection in a more compact enclosure than a traditional 2×12. Featuring a pair of 12” neodymium Eminence speakers, 600 Watts of power handling and parallel speakon jacks the OBC212 is a perfect mate for a wealth of bass amplifier heads.
ISOBARIC DESIGN
OBC212 positions two front-facing speakers, one behind the other. The space between the front speaker’s magnet and the rear speaker’s cone is airtight, ensuring that both speakers vibrate in conjunction with one another, thus keeping them in phase. Combined with a slot port for extra low end the OBC212 delivers a seriously punchy sound with a much smaller footprint than a conventional 2×12″.
EMINENCE NEODYMIUM SPEAKERS
Two 12″ Neodymium speakers for high power handling, super fast attack and reduced weight.
DAISY CHAINING

THE AMP OF CHOICE FOR ROCK AND METAL GUITARISTS
KEY FEATURES:
Two Master Volume Channels with Four Stages of High Gain
From sparkling cleans to overdrive to aggressive distortion. Both channels deliver the versatility demanded by the best guitarists
Footswitchable Global Attenuator
Output stage saturation at ‘conversation volumes’. The Attenuator circuit is located after the master volume controls and determines when and how the amp distorts after the preamp stage. This means the overall volume level can be reduced, whilst keeping control over the amp’s output clipping characteristics. Unlike a loadbox, our design ensures the all-important relationship between the output transformer and the speaker remains intact, so even at very low volumes the amp remains springy and responsive. Turning the Attenuator control clockwise reduces the overall output level (i.e. increases the attenuation), which can be remotely defeated via a footswitch for a volume boost on either channel for lead lines.
Switchable Output Power
Switching the amp’s output power allows for more control over the headroom and breakup from the output valves. Reduce the output for greater output valve clipping and saturation at lower volume levels. The Dual Dark 50 can be switched between 50 and 25 Watts
Engineered to be played
At Orange, we expect our amps to work for a living. For the best possible tone and durability, the Dual Dark 50 uses 8 section output transformers. The chassis-mounted switchgear is secured to a welded steel enclosure and housed in a sturdy 18mm plywood cabinet.
Valve Buffered FX Loop
For the purist who loves their pedals, our highly transparent effects loop is buffered by a single 12AT7/Ecc81, ensuring an all-valve signal path from input to output. You won’t find any op-amps in the Dual Dark 50.
“I wanted to design a series of amps that could go as clean or as dirty as you want on both channels. Don’t be fooled by the dark appearance, these are versatile bits of kit.”

Made in the UK, it’s heavy and solidly put together with superbly applied tolex and piping, metal corner covers and chromed facia protectors. All the cooling vents are metal, and everything is screwed down so tightly it can only inspire confidence.
Taking it’s place among the elite super-high-gain heads, Orange’s all tube Dual Dark 50 is equally proficient at producing modern, ear melting gain and yesteryear’s British Chime.
I don’t believe that the ‘perfect’ amp exists but the Dual Dark comes frighteningly close. Amazing Stuff!
….the Dual Dark 50 is a pro-level amp for players who are serious about getting heavy, and nobody does heavy quite like Orange
“It cleans up really nicely, you can get some really nice jangly tones…it’s a pretty friggin great amp!”
The Orange Dual Dark series is freaking awesome!
EVEN DARKER
100 Watts of 100% Valve Darkness
Our highest gain amplifiers to date and our very first amps to offer four stages of gain on two channels, the Dual Dark heads are both aggressive and flexible at the same time. With gain and master volume controls on both A and B, either channel can serve up clean, overdrive or insane levels of distortion, making these amps incredibly pliable despite their obvious Metal leanings.
Channel A is a completely new design with a voicing that reveals a fat and powerful EQ with strong open mids and a tight response. Channel B takes its roots from our much loved Dark Terror, with a lightning fast attack perfect for percussive down-tuned riffing. The intuitive Shape control, first appearing on our acclaimed Thunderverb series, affects the midrange response whilst interacting with the bass and treble. Dial in a range of tones using just one control, from a full-on scoop, to a rich lead sound with pronounced mids and rounded highs.
Compared to its 50W brother, the Dual Dark 100’s bigger output section allows for even greater control over the huge level of preamp gain on offer. The bottom end punch and midrange clout is truly staggering, and if you like your distortion happening at the front end, you’ll love the Dual Dark 100! For a different flavour, the output can be tamed from 100W down to 70W, 50W or 30W for earlier output valve clipping and saturation at reduced volume levels.
Meanwhile, our footswitchable attenuator circuit allows for control over when and how the amp distorts after the preamp stage. Use the amp’s master volume controls to push the output stage into submission, then reduce the volume level with the attenuator, right the way down to ‘conversation’ levels. This feature can also be defeated remotely for a volume boost in a live setting. Unlike a loadbox, our design ensures the all-important relationship between the output transformer and the speaker remains intact, so even at very low volumes the amp remains springy and responsive. Finally, the amp is equipped with a highly transparent, low impedance valve buffered effects loop to take full advantage of the masses of gain available when using time-based effects.

Our first ever signature amplifier is based directly on the Dirty Channel of Jim Root’s own Rockerverb 100 MKII. The ‘Pics Only’ styling pays homage to his self-confessed love of vintage Orange amps although the sounds within are unmistakably modern. A powerful 3 band EQ and four stages of high gain capture the trademark savage riffing tones that have propelled the Slipknot ace to the status of a contemporary Rock legend. Along with switchable output power and the addition of a valve-driven FX loop, this little head would be a seriously potent addition to anyone’s arsenal. Pair with its matching #4 Jim Root PPC212 cabinet for a compact but menacing half stack.

But damn, what a sound! Truly a thick, fat distortion and still with a beautiful tone.
It’s such a big throaty drive sound that for alt-rock and hard rock, single-coils work remarkably well and open up a wealth of bluesier tones with judicious use of the amp’s onboard EQ and your guitar’s volume control. Despite the livery, one-dimensional this ain’t.
It packs a seriously satisfying crunch that outperforms many more expensive high-gain heads.
This amp just made me want to play and play and play. That, for me, is a sure sign of an excellent product. We’ve no choice but to award it our joint highest ever score . Well done Orange!
There’s something extremely satisfying about dialling through its spectrum of cool rock and blues tones en route to unleashing the fury.
