Axe-Master
Could be a NASCAR reference....No it gets sent to the North Wall. Whatever that means. Sounds spooky.

Aside from the normal variance between amps, you can get just about any sound from a real JCM800. If you take that approach and get to know how it reacts on the master, you can do jazz blues improv like Wayne Krantz to Slayer. The trick with the Axe is to mess with the bright cap value and IRs have a huge impact with the bright cap.The JCM 800 Sounds much less tamed to me. The Gain staging is there, and from second listening, EQ isn't the problem here at all because it's pretty spot on. bBut the compressed sound and that upper harmonics that open the sound. It sort of like 15.01 artifact in the upper range that makes it sound like under a blanket and polished.

For instance a bright IR with a strat either disable the bright or use 47pF maybe a little more. Stock is 1000pF which is kinda nuts and makes lower master volumes less useful.
Is there like an advanced guide on stuff like bright cap pF interaction behaviour and all the various parameters within the amp block?
I already posted this in the af3 recording subforum, but I'm reposting here if you don't mind, because everyone has to know that Cygnus finally fills the gap between a real amp and a digital model! Definitely a game changer - and its till a beta!
The wiki is great but for this particular tweak it really depends on your guitar and any pedals you might use. Like the Pi can be really horrid with bright caps, but the Rat gets extra itchy inverse high frequency chunky with lower bright cap values. It's unusable with a low master volume 800 with the stock bright cap, like mostly everything else.Is there like an advanced guide on stuff like bright cap pF interaction behaviour and all the various parameters within the amp block?
Correct. Some years ago we entered a concert hall. I said "I hear a Kemper". My body replied: "I just wanted to say that.“the Kemper is a mystery I will never understand. You can use a triple rectifier profile or a fender Princeton profile, they will always sound like a Kemper, with that annoying ooomph in the low mids that FAS sorted out about 75 fw's ago!
The modeling between 5 and 8 is identical.I can't put my finger on it but I decided to go back to 5 from 8 and 5 feels and sounds better.......... 8 feels like the midrange is scooped out. 8 seems to make things sound the same again.
Do you happen to have a hot cake? It's quite nice into this model.The Tucana Clean - Damn - Just damn - So clean, so clear, so bell like
What changed that would effect the sound change and is there something I can do to get back to this?The modeling between 5 and 8 is identical.
Red is 5.7, Yellow is 2.9. Always was.did the Input Drive of the JP IIC+ Yellow always default to 2.9?
Could have sworn it was 5.0
There were no changes to the modeling or that model.What changed that would effect the sound change and is there something I can do to get back to this?
