Use a solution with or without spdif. You'll have to deal with latency anyway if you plan on reamping.

But you can't get 3 different signals using spdif only of course.

Finally put my money where my mouth was:

1988 MIJ JEM. Plays like butter obviously. Got it for a little less than 2k$ which is a good price. Plan on keeping it forever though

Wow sounds great. Who's singing?

Quote from Sollazzon

spidf can give you DI and the Entire ( 1 and 3 ) at the same time and a TS cable form Monitor Out (with cab off enabled) will give you the Amp only ..your 2.

Did You try this?

I suspect 1 should be stereo here.

EDIT: missed the no-cab part. My bad.

Record Git/Stack on spdif for 2 and 3?

Master stereo on the main outs for 1?

Edit: missed the no-cab part.

Lucky bastard

Not sure if related but I find that you need totally differente mix levels depending on whether you feed a mono cab or a stereo FRFR system (or FOH for that matter).

I'm thinking maybe something related to a pan law or similar. But I don't know.

I did but I took them down to make it truly blind again. I'll post again later.

Ok. I you have time I would appreciate a dm

Quote from drew_fx

I posted clips. Decide for yourself:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/41u…5L2gFGX-IRoA8huIN1ba?dl=0

6 clips there.

3 are the real amp.

1 is the Quad Cortex.

The other two are the Kemper - refined, and not refined.

I liked 3 for the top-end and 5 for the punch. Rest sounded OK as well but pretty much the same.

Did you post the result?

Quote from Zappledan

It cannot.

Should be a relatively straight forward mod though.

Because I can't leave well enough alone !!!!

So I added some eq'd versions ( I'm just learning how to work with this Two Torpedoes Captor 8 reactive load box )

These additional profiles were uploaded into the exchange today:

1959RR Captor cab solo eq b

1959RR Captor Cab rythmn eq b

1959RR Captor Cab Dark

I also gave a whirl at profiling my 1966 JTM50 BlackFlag Marshall, same 1960ax cab and signal chain.

JTM50 Captor A rythmn dry(ish)

JTM50 Captor B rythmn flanger

JTM50 Captor rythmn mid scoop

JTM50 Captor wide

JTM50 Captor dark

There are two profiles for this JTM50, A & B and some additional presets where I played around with effects and curves. The dark preset is closer to the original amp sound. I'm still trying to find a balance between brightness and 'recordability' in the daw without having to eq much in a dense mix. These profiles seem to like the rythmn pickup on my Lespaul.

All in all, I find Marshalls the hardest amp to get 'right', there is this sound the choke seems to impart on this JTM in particular, it's a nasal kinda thing, but I felt I should capture it before it no longer works. This amp was dimed full max on 10 for volume, and I won't be doing that much more. It also has a rectifier tube, so maybe it's not quite a 50 watt.

Have played around some more with these. I really really like (also like the "original"). The way you dial them in reminds me of Pete Thorn and Robert Baker. They have a somewhat trebly sound, that isn't too much. Have struggled finding that in Kemper land, but these sound really great. Thanks a bunch!

I have the Reampzone one and love it a lot.

Regarding the typical JJ sound I'm a lousy judge. As with any player I get closer to their sound by playing like them as opposed to using the same gear.

You should be able to do this as well if you setup 3 harmonizer stomps and morph their mixes.

I do wonder though how many accidental turn-offs has to happen mid-solo before someone request the current behavior

Quote from CrazyShred

Hi everyone!

I have some sweet eventide plugins that I would like to play around with. The effects I wanna try are time-based so I need to bypass the "effects" section of my kemper

1)how can I add them without hearing 2 signals?

2)I am using Reaper and I am hooked up using SPDIF!

I suspect the answer is to make sure you mute the direct sound on your soundcard mixer when you monitor through Reaper with effects?

Awesome thanks! Can't wait to try these today. The other ones really stand out.

PS: *rhythm

Yup - RZ_92MesaDR_S94 it is.

Let me check tomorrow but I think it was something with 94.

Quote from Monkey_Man

I love the groove change from the verse to the chorus, man.

Great that the bass gets some exposure.

Your solo rocks, as always, Niko.

Thanks! Yeah we have to use that bass effectively in a four-piece! Glad you liked the solo!

Quote from GearJocke

Your best song so far.

I tend to think so too

Quote from deadman42

This! Yes, yes, yes, as Monkey_Man said. Great tune, powerful, somewhat complex, groovy... very cool. Congrats guys on your work. Really love the passion behind that!

The Bass part in the middle is extremely nice and almost Tool-ish

Glad you liked the interlude!

Quote from waraba

Fantastic ! I'm still prefer king killer an absolute hit but this one really rocks too

BTW are the drums recorded on the edrum set ? I don't see no mike on the 'real' drumset ?

Guilty as charged - the drums are Steven Slate played on the eDrum set. We allow ourselves to cheat a little bit on the playthrough in that regard

Quote from nightlight

Brilliant, I really liked Egypt! I think the mix was also better, sounded very precise.

Thanks man - My mixing skills are getting better although still very inconsistent. I had to send my Adam A7Xs in for repair, so this one is actually mostly mixed on my old hifi setup (F3 lyd speakers, and Denon PMA-900v from the 80's) in the later stages.

I did have to take 9-10 trips to my car to check though. I don't know what it is about car stereos, but if it sounds balanced there, then it will work everywhere. Strongly considering getting a powerful laptop and sit in the car while doing the final balancing. For real.
