    Powerstage 170

    I played around with some different amps. I’m really happy with how the Revv Gen models sound. Used the 5 band Mark style EQ to shape the sound. I could have probably kept tweaking and got the other to work, but the Revv model hit real quick, there was no need to keep searching. I’m just...

    Your best tips quad tracking

    Yes, the IIC+ needs to be tailored in a specific way for sure. Also the Awake tone is an inspiration, yes. It sounds really nice together.

    Your best tips quad tracking

    What might sound good individually might not sound good together. I tend to set the amps really different when quad tracking. The Mark GEQ is your friend. I think Petrucci did your combo of Recto and IIC+ on DT's Awake album. Love those tones.

    The circuit boards were supposed to be very different between the IIC+ and the IIB. We have a lot of control in the IIC+ model but I'm thinking it'll need to be someone who really knows the two amps to be able to make a convincing sounding IIB. It'd be cool though.

  59. Saarang Narayan

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 24.00 Public Beta #2

    Yeah I think I agree. Mark V seems to have a touch more mids than the other amps imo (or maybe it’s the other way ‘round and I’m misremembering right now). But the IIC++ is the least compressed of all Mark amps to me.
  60. R

    Axe-Fx III Firmware 24.00 Public Beta #2

    from just the clips of Leon playing them back to back , once dialled in they were pretty close but I think the Mark V with the single gain control might be easier for some to dial in , to my ears the Mark V sounder slightly smoother , maybe a bit more open less congested , I liked it

    Ada mp-1 can we confirm it will never happen or is it still a maybe?

    I think that’s unfortunate, wish they were two separate blocks. Using old Metallica as an example, Mesa IIC+ (slaved) into a Marshall JCM 800 power amp. Could also open the door to modeling super expensive hi-fi tube power amps, like McIntosh for instance.

    Question about the Mark series graphic EQ modeling
