    I love the bell-like, chimey sound of a les paul with both pickups on - like the sound of the intro to the Beach Boys "Surfin USA". ( I know it wasn't a Les Paul, but that's the sound)

    The Variax 700 really nails this sound, but the JTV69 , at least the one that I am currently trying out, is lacking in this.  I know these JTV's have had numerous flash updates - did the HD update change the original JTV models?  Would the originals sound like the 700?

     

    Thanks!

    Yes they change. And some guitars are downgraded a bit conpared to the 700 imo. You can go back or you can download my ultimate bundle from here https://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=24065.0

    Just subscribe and you gonna have a new and perfect jtv. .

    I downloaded all of your stuff and I must say that I was in love with the Vox stuff you had,  reminded of early oasis..     I'm pleased to say the IR's were easy as well,  but I have a question for you brother...   I know you said that that stuff you shared with me was your presets and I'm thankful you shared this with me,  but since you crafted for live,   what sort of tweaks would need to be made on some of these to be suitable?  Is it more about the effects and compression than EQ?   I found myself getting lost in the Vox preset you had and found it close to being very suitable for a few of my tunes..    Just for the record,  I love good guitar tones,  but I'm more of a songwriter whom focuses on the production of songs as opposed to being overly anal about tones..  Heck,   I made it with my band using a stock rivera and a cabtone and marshall 4x12 (back in 04 mind you)

    Welcome mate and i am happy you found something you enjoyed! As you said, it is more of effects since the compresion at the end of the chain should at least change from limit to compression, and reduce the threshold. The double tracker should be turned off, as well as the reverb. This is for the effects, the rest is eq....

    Thanks brother..  Are these yours or just collected?   I just got unit and figuring out basic stuff at moment but I will try and figure out how to put the IR's in as well,  but I'll admit to not sure how to do it yet..    If I don't use an input pad on my guitar with EMG's  how do I find the input level meter to be sure it's not too hot?

    Mine mate. Hope you will like them. To put the ir open helix edit at your pc, go to the IR tab, and drag and drop them. The other question already answered by silverhead. For my presets are mostly for studio recording sounds not for live, due to the use of reverb and double tracker, and extreme compression.

  4. Honestly the disàppoinment you felt on axe 2 I get on hd500. It was advértised that you can create a chain as your heart desires. But I run out of dsp very quick, and to get a good sound you needed at least 2 eq in a 8 effects chain. As for the jcm 800, personal taste I agree with the op. The jam 800 of xt and x3 was really great sounding, as well as the modern high gain. I can not replicate these sounds on any other unit.

    Is this alive? None of them doesn't work. Where can I find those presets?

    I posted a similar question recently but got no replies. The knob became harder and harder to turn and eventually broke off. Anyone else have this problem?

    Same here. And this is the end of helix for me. First helix scribble strips dead. Second phantom power no working. 3rd big rotation knob no rotating and now headphone knob broke. I love it but all the craps, made me hate it. I will sent it for repair and try to find a sucker to sell it.

  7. I love to say its out, its out, and people start hating me in tgp... i believe that if it will be out, if i will be the first to say, they will not believe it anymore... muahahahah
