Some NAM profiles for y'all

Ladies & gents - my take on this legendary circuit: the Peavey 6505 1992 Original "MultiLoad" NAM pack.

ℹ️ “MultiLoad” - what’s this about?

The cabinet (or load) a tube amplifier interacts with has a considerable impact on the tone & feel.
For this pack, I used 3 iconic cabinets and reamped all AMP and POW settings with each cab.

✅ All profiles calibrated
✅ 3 iconic guitar cabs used as loads (no reactive load):
➡️ Mesa 4x12 OS Straight
➡️ Mesa 2x12 Horizontal Rectifier (standard, not compact)
➡️ Marshall 4x12 1960BV with Marshall G12 Vintage speakers
✅ AMP, PRE & POW profiles for maximum flexibility
✅ DI and MIC-ed up flavors for each AMP and POW profile
✅ STD and REVyHI architectures
✅ Anti-aliasing signal leveraged during reamping
✅ High-fidelity signal chain used during reamping
✅ Stompbox / OD profiles included

Since it's quite a beefy pack, I decided to shoot a quick video walkthrough of the Peavey 6505 1992 Original "MultiLoad" pack.

The sole purpose of the vid is to help people get the most of these profiles & share some info on how the overall pack's structured.

For whoever's interested in the pack, hope this helps & I appreciate your support!

Hi 2dor you are quite famous on telegram I asked a nam group to recommend me a nam pack for hi gain two people recommended yours
I'll buy it next month. Regarding JVM410 or JVM205H do you think one day you can capture those amps? All the JVM amps on tone3000 sound horrible.
Btw I heard Tone3000 will try to convert all the current files (A1) there to A2, do you think this is going to impact your default profiles? I will your default A1 file sound better on a weaker device once it's converted to A2 ?

Oh, I wasn't aware of gear chats on that platform; hard to keep up with all the socials nowadays. It always puts a smile on my face when I read / hear that people like these profiles - helps make the process feel less of a grind sometimes.

@PippPriss has some pretty darn good JVM profiles on Tone3000 and Ko-Fi:

@MirrorProfiles also did a NAM pack for the JVM410 head:

Both of the above authors are solid & their profiles are definitely worth it.

As far as me doing one of these, yeah, it is possible; these are easier to come by around these parts than some of the other amps I profiled.

A2 is something I'm really looking forward to having read up on Steve's documentation on it so far; it should be quite a step up in accuracy and most importantly efficiency; plus you can always customize it further to create even larger models etc. much like we do nowadays.

Tone3000 aren't converting existing profiles to A2 though; they're using the audio files users have uploaded when training profiles and re-training A2 models as well.

The most likely result of this is going to be A2 models are going to show up in all packs which were trained on Tone3000 sometime this year.

In that sense, the existing A1 profiles will still be there and sound as good as they sound today. As to how good A2 will be, nobody here can say (well, not to my knowledge anyway) how much better they're going to be than A1 but I have a feeling they'll be received quite well. Steve's been working on this for quite some time now & is aware of what the user base is looking for.

Thanks for your suggestions regarding JVM profiles, I'll test later, appreciate it

So Tone3000 still has in their database all .wav files that were used to convert to standard A1 format and now they will convert these files to A2?
I'm asking this because I contact them a few weeks ago and they told me about they weren't 100% sure but they thought of converting all files to A2, when I read the reply I thought "well they were simply going to convert A1 to A2". I confess it didn't make sense to me I thought "well there must be a reason for this". Now that you mention they will convert the wav files to A2 it makes sense, absolutely.

I'm curious about A2 because let's say converting the current A1 to devices that play nam (think of Valeton, Mooer, even Nux announced yesterday NAM support) it must have some impact for the better, even if the sinewave used to convert nam to their proprietary format is the same.
As for the devices that play nam natively the best thing I can think of is the companies behind them making more NAM spaces so you can run 2 or 3 nam files per chain. Let's say a drive nam, an amp and a nam file of some old multitrack recorder that gives that "ultimate analog studio" feel to it. Or even running two NAM amps at the same time, in stereo, since A2 might have the option consume less DSP.

(I purchased Mirrorprofiles JVM for Tonex, absolutely loved them. I think I might grab for NAM next month)

A2 will most probably be good.

The Slimmable feature will allow those efficiencies though to be leveraged on hardware units. A2 and "slimmable NAM" are different things, just advertised / packed together.

I've tried the slimmable NAM models and plugin Steve included in his paper / research on the topic and going down from 8 channels, I started to hear a very noticeable difference at about 5 channels (out of 8) so there's room for sizing these models, if they were trained with the slimmable process, to fit within the processing constraints of various units.

you are correct, A2 and slimmable nam are two different things
I guess in the next plugin for MAC and windows there will be a slider in the advanced settings to run at different "qualities" right? I couldn't find any beta on the github though, hopefully they release an update before the end of this month
I also interested in how will this slim thing work in devices that convert nam to their proprietary format. I guess the device will have set a fixed value, some value that trim nam to smaller CPU usage without too much loss or no loss in quality.
