Re: Marshall JMP-1 Preamp in a pedal?
There's a lot of different kinds of sounds in there - got any particular faves? Some are super scooped and heavy, some more midrangey low/mid gain kinda stuff. I like the "midlands" preset myself, with a few minor tweaks. A floor POD would get close to it I think. Doesn't one of the pods even have a jmp-1 patch?
Found it - number 34 on a pod x3: http://www.vettaville.nl/vvpodx3.html
Dang, I forgot how many amp models that thing has. I kinda want one.Last edited by DankStar; 06-28-2014, 08:38 PM.

Re: Marshall JMP-1 Preamp in a pedal?
I thought the XTS Atomic overdrive sounded more like a Marshall than anything I've played before, but the issue I had with it is that it sounded great at low volumes, but at high volumes it makes the sound smaller than I'd like.Originally posted by kevlar3000I learned a long time ago that the only thing that mattered regarding tone was what my ears thought.Originally posted by ZerberusBetter is often the enemy of goodOriginally posted by ginormousCovers feed the body, originals feed the soul.

Re: Marshall JMP-1 Preamp in a pedal?
I haven't come across any pedals that do every shade of gain better than the Bogner Red.
It's $300 new, but worth the money. Buy used if you want it closer to $200.
And yeah, I used a JMP-1 for a few years in the 90's. You can plug a Bogner blue or red into any amp and instantly have a great high gain tone. Low volume or high volume....you'll get what you're looking for.

You have to specify a JMP-1 sound….
There is no "Marshall" sound IMO - they have a bunch of good ones!!!! Kinda like original; PAF's - which one????Originally posted by Bad City

The gain maxes out at what I would describe as medium on the DLS but the Weehbo can go to medium-high via an internal trim pot that can give a bit more gain than it comes stock from the factory.
Of course, there are three versions of the DLS... the available gain increases from v1 to v3. The current version has as much gain on tap as the Weehbo.
Weehbo does make the finest Marshall in a Box sounds on the planet IMO. They have a wide line with lots of models to evoke certain Marshall flavors.
Their JVM Drive sounds like it is right up your alley.
Best amp tech I've ever had and hands down one of the best electronic/sound wizards in the NC Piedmont.

Re: Marshall JMP-1 Preamp in a pedal?
My mistake, I didn't realize the hundreds of options the jmp1 had.
I'm definitely not looking for anything in the plexi range. I want something that is high gain. Ever heard the song Jellybelly by Smashing Pumpkins? Something that heavy, more of a modern gain type.
I'm going to check this video in a bit, when I'm on a proper computer

As far as actually doing so, I haven't heard the pedal in person but the Boger Ecstacy Red (as rec'd by GJ above) should be able to do the OD2 sound from the JMP-1. That's probably what the Pumpkins used for their heavy sound in the MCIS era as OD1 doesn't get much beyond Plexi territory IME.Originally posted by crusty philtrumAnd that's probably because most people with electric guitars seem more interested in their own performance rather than the effect on the listener ... in fact i don't think many people who own electric guitars even give a poop about the effect on a listener. Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

James used a JMP-1, Mesa Triaxis, and Digitech 2101 into Mesa 2:90 poweramps. Another thing to remember is that the Pumpkins records are HEAVILY multi-tracked and overdubbed. It's unlikely that you'll ever be able to duplicate their recorded sound from any era. Their live tones are a bit different, but should at least be reasonably possible to duplicate.
You seem to know everything about the Pumpkins that I want to know. I should just PM you directly next time. Yes, your absolutely right that the MCIS tones or any studio tones are not attainable via any gear I purchase, partly due to the layering. BTW I saw James' triaxis for sale a while ago, and some other MCIS gear.
As you know, I have the bat strat ready to go, just filling in other pieces. I aim for the SP sound, but I'd like the pedals I acquire to have versatility so I can create my own tones as well.Last edited by Kais; 07-02-2014, 10:18 AM.

How does it handle lighter overdrive tones? Or plexi tones?
I currently have a rat deucetone, and if I picked up the bogner red, would offload the rat.Last edited by Kais; 07-02-2014, 10:30 AM.
