So, I'm loving on a pack from Top Jimi. His brown sound pack is great. It does the variac'd super lead. So, I'd like to do this technique to say a profile of a hotter amp. Example would be to variac a 5150 MKI and give some better dynamics and tube squish. Like sending it off to a specialist and having them create a negative feedback mod, or installing a variac control. Is adding a tube voltage knob into the interface a silly idea? Or, can this be simply done with tube sag and tube hardness? I'm a previous Axe-FX user, and I was total tube tweaker! hahaha. It was crack for rack-amp-ophiles.

Any tube experts know about this? What did Eddie do to those Super Lead amps? How would you sculpt a preset to get that warmer tone, less gain, but still very powerful.

It be cool to have a Tube voltage/ Virtual Variac control for the amp block parameters. I'm always looking to take a hot rod amp, and give it that voltage drop effect.

Welcome dude. I feel your pain!

Sweet. Ya. I use Adobe Illustrator. I could use those vectors! Awesome axe!

Welcome to the gang!
Yeah the JPM design is very nice. So nice, that back then, in my teens, I made set of vector images made in Corel Draw and I changed my old Ibanez RG to JPM P1 look. Now I have Ibanez RG7 620 stickered to JPM P2.I can share the graphics file, if anyone is interested. In fact I already shared it on some Petrucci forum, buf I am sure that it is now unavailable.

The Sevenstring Ibanez looks like this:

I came from the shred life. The JP Picasso guitar represents the spark of my passion from DT's Images and Words album. I hop around in guitars a bunch. But the JP guitar is just cool looking.

Music and a sense of humor. Love it. Thanks a ton for the welcome. haha.

Yes, so I'm a former Axe-FX user. I loved it, I got really good at controlling the unit. I had dudes paying me for the presets I was making. But, it just got to a point to which It always sounded like a compressed produced record. So I sold it and picked up the Kemper, and honestly....I have not looked back. I may not have the same modeling control, but.... I'm loving the fact that I'm getting to know real people, with real amps! Thanks Mr. Kemper!

I tried it on a POD HD500X. Set it up in exp 2 jack. Assigned it to EXP 2. Nothing. So ya...looks like I have a dead EV-5.

Here a quick video of the screen. https://youtu.be/YDpN4KIL8Rk
It's doing the same issue on the morph function. I did try also setting the expression value wheel to min and max prior to connecting the pedal.

I saw a video with Wayne Charvel playing a modded JMP-1 from Voodoo lab. Sounded sweet. Check it out.https://youtu.be/ixyUO79Eaew
I say, make it play like it was modded. But.... It's just cool to say it's tweaked. I'm sure the stock it still pretty cool.

It's my first attempt at connecting the pedal. It's moving from 0-10 on its own. Like a infinite cycle. I have it assigned to Morph. It's also on type 1.

Today, I updated to OS 4. Connected the Roland EV-5 expression pedal. Went to System>Pedal 1> and tried to calibrate the EV-5 pedal. I can't get it to control the value for anything. It's cycling from 0-10 over and over. Any thoughts? I wanted to try out some morphing demos. Bummer it did this.

Michael,
Dude I love your work. Can't wait to try the Sold88 rack. Nobody is doing this. Thank you so much. Do you have plans for the hot rodded JMP-1?
