hi ! Cliff asked to post it in the forum , so here we go .
SO :
Owning the real head, everytime I use it in the axe , i feel that the control dont act like the real thing . So I decided to do a video to be sure about this .
In the video I use the real head, torpedo captor and a IR . and then the axe 3 with the same settings and same IR . the difference is huge .
Then ok, I already got some answer like
"the sliders in the 5 band EQ in the axe are more violent acting"
-can we have an update with more realistic course of the mark 5 sliders ?
"you are using a torpedo captor and it not as good as..."
I dont think that the torpedo captor give less gain, add tons of mids , and change the preamp section ...
"2 same amps can have a sound difference"
the difference between A and B is so big , I dont know any amp manufacturers that produce random amps with the same name on it . I agree with a very light difference, but here ....
Well . in my opinion , if you want a more realistic jp2C in the axe 3 :
update it with :
1/ add gain in the gain button, the real jp got more gain
2/ the real JP is globally more scooped
3/ add a shred button that act like a tubescreamer boost, the +3 db high treble dont work and dont simulated it as mention . the shred mode add gain too .
(sorry for my english , I am not . )
I am already thinking, doing another test with the axe 3 in the return of the head to compare only the preamp section , and using the torpedo captor for both so . and maybe dont use the graphic eq on both .
( axe 3 JP2C without cab- return of the JP2C - torpedo captor - IR
JP2C - torpedo captor - same IR )
