The Peavey 5150 (OG) Model Thread

I had to turn the output on the 6505 down a little - but otherwise I didn't change any settings between the two (I copied your settings from your Nolly screenshot) -

I don't know why they turned out so quiet compared to your uploads - all levels in Logic seemed fine to me but it's a clear difference, and I also like your Nolly tone better than the Nolly tone I recorded.

Nolly sounds a touch more aggressive in the upper mids and leaner in the lows. I quite like the 6505 model, but IMO it just needs the depth lowered a bit. It's often a fine tuning act between bass and resonance depending on guitar tuning, the key of the song, the riff etc. The song in my example weirdly didnt have much palm muting which sometimes allows for a different kind of low end to sounding with a lot of mutes.

It's actually pretty cool having variations of the same amp, kind of like how you can have multiple speakers captured from the same cab.
