I didn't use any of the Alloys IRs, I used individual IRs (actually, always a MD421 and a SM57 for JP tones) and try to find the best/cosest combination of them.
It may be the guitar/pickups..
If you need some help, just PM me and I can try to make it as good as possible on your setup! =)
Exactly, and I'd like to add that not only the guitar pickups but the whole guitar itself. (geometry, wood type, construction, etc)
I can feel some good differences between my JP guitars (JPM100 / JP6 / JP13)
IMO the JPM and the JP6 have pretty much the same sound and feel, except that JPMs Steve's Special/Air Norton combo have less output than the Crunch Lab/Liquifire, which gives some very good single note clarity and definition in the high gain end.
When it comes to differences between JP6 and the 13 they are bigger, especially on the "feel". IMO The 13 is heavier, both weight and sound, liquidier, smoother and the Illuminators seems to have even more output than the CL/LF.
Summing up, the so called "JP Main Rhythm Tone" has a "generic" recipe that can be achieved by getting rid of the bass on the preamp stage than adding latter with the classic Mark series EQ + scooping the mids and pumping some of the upper mids and highs, BUT "dat beyond this life bridge 1 section tone" e.g is a function of guitar used + amp + cab micing techniques + post processing/mixing tricks + JP's talent (mainly :lol)
Anyway, great job Vitor, your presets are awesome! Even more now with the great Clark's IRs that are spot on and my go to IRs for high gain stuff :encouragement:
