New amp; inbound. FINALLY \M/

[laxu]

Honestly; I would LOVE to have a JVM110H Just that brutal 3 mode OD channel with a loop that lets me kill it with maxed Channel Volume settings Tones are up there with the GOATs \m/

Synergy should do a module with nothing but that channel.

Hire Santiago to design it \m/

How cool would a small module with 28 knobs be!

traditionally two channel amps sell much more than single channel amps... so I'm sure there will be a clean channel shoehorned somewhere in there

So how did you envision people switching from the clean channel to the OD channel? The volume difference is TOUGH to mitigate in everything I have tried other than just using a preset.

As far as stacking into the clean channel; I hit it with an SD1---OCD---Silver Horsie and it was OD channel green with that combo was nice but pulling a couple of ingredients out of that mix into the OD orange was sublime as well.

This amp makes me wish I kept my Powerstation vs. needlessly buying an LXII I don't use

what I mean is that I don't think a company like Marshall would "bother" putting a high gain 1 channel amp in the market. It would be like the currrent 2 channel JVM or a DSL with shared controls. The old JVM1 had a single Clean volume for example.

In the 4 channel JVM, the way I thought the amp was:
1- set your clean green gain to wherever you like (no channel volume in this one)
2- set the master to your desired playing level
3- set the other channel's volume controls to match/balance well against the clean

there can be some challenges if you want to use the 3 clean modes but that's why I added the clean volume control. Also, the amp was thought as a 4 channel amp, not a 12 channel amp, although I tried to make everything balanced and usable.

This is cool as F!

You are a musical treasure!

HX Effects at 3:00 mark!

he's been using it for quite a few years already!

 

[JiveTurkey]

The reverb on this amp is pretty damn fantastic. Clean channel with it is great with drives on top

I had no idea. I assumed they are still using the JMP-1s .

They switched things up some time ago. Adrian is (obviously) running JVMs and Murray has moved to Fractal. Not sure about Gers.

 

[KHAAAAAAANNNNNNN!!!!!!!!]

This is cool as F!

Adrian is fucking cool!!!

Kind of funny that he plays stadiums with gear that he doesn't even know what it is. And we (mostly) play bars, clubs or at home and focus so deeply on minutia.

Betcha he could tell you every detail about his signal chain with Smith/ Kotzen, though. Maiden stopped being a band a long time ago and is now a large company.

At least he knows he tunes down a half step and he uses 10's with Kotzen.

I would imagine he’s only hands on with the guitars he uses in Maiden, and lets the guitar tech worry about the amps and effects.

I think by the late 2000s they were still with JMP1 and ADA MP1, usuing a DSL and EL34-100-100 rac stuff as power amps. Janick as well.
Then Adrian started using the JVMs and haven't moved on. Even in his vidos at home he has one there. Dave kept using the JPM1/DSLs till recently. I'm not sure Janick but I'd not be surprised if he is still with the JMPs

It is the "old school" thing, it works for them, why changing? I'm pretty sure, after they finish a gig in front of 50,000 people, won't be asking the fans how they found their tone

In the video their tech even says they could go for e.g Axe-Fx, but then they would have to spend a lot of time figuring all the sounds.

We often don't think about this but when you have written so many songs over the decades, each requiring some fx switching etc...it can take ages to figure out how to replicate all that with a new rig. Even if that new rig would be less gear and cost to transport.

That won’t be a problem soonish. Others will follow I bet.
