Fractal Talk

It really does. But all we need is a capture of that cab and speaker. The amp itself isn't all that different from what we have now.

Isn’t Joe a big fan of using the Jubillee Rythm channel w a boost or the clip engaged

I’ve also been late to check out the JVM stuff. I know I recently dug one of the ToneX JVM caps from the Satch vault, but in Fractal land the IIC++ is my go-to for high gain 100% of the time and then I figure out what I’ll compliment it with, which is almost always a 5150 or boosted JCM800.

It’s been a while since I’ve done any scooped chugga metal, I’ve had my head up Plexi/Marshall ass for months now, to the point I’m reconsidering my next amp purchase from being a Mesa Mark to a Ceriatone King Kong because I’m not feeling quite as modern chuggy as used to.

The problem with the real amp IMO is that it is really noisy but so is a 5150
The red modes also have to much gain and can get fizzy but the Orange od1/2 are great

My recollection of the zeitgeist back then was that you should get a Recto, a Mark, a Splawn or other boutique offering, or a boosted jcm. The JVM seemed to have leprosy for reasons I don’t really remember. Seemed like you could hardly give one away at one point in time.

IMO; the Fractal JVM is better than the real thing. He said, with love. I had it but that loop implementation and level problems I had with it were deal breakers. If they did a revamp and addressed those things; I would be day 1 buyer.

I don’t really consider it that noisy for a 100w high gain amp. I’ve never even bothered with a gate on mine.

Gotta recycle those oldies every so often to give off the illusion of productivity!

That amp follows a Dumble ODS topology.
