    Yep, that will almost always be the case BTW, as any individual slider above 0 Db needs to be compensated for with a drop in overall volume or have enough individual cuts below 0 to keep overall unity. -and Since most people boost more than cut, they can always expect that the Volume will be set below 0 Db to achieve this.

      I have, and it was quite impressive, yet felt like I was opening Pandora's box with that much power on the fly. I thought it would make me constantly fidgeting -instead of dialing permutations in to a set few and then doing minor room compensation at the gig with the push of a slider.

      In the right scenario, it would be excellent, but for me it would be adding risk and complexity to a road rig -for the same reason I don't use Chase Bliss pedals live... lol.

        That’s all very true.

        I’ve been mulling over getting a JVM410HJS (Satriani Marshall), it’s got 4 channels, each with 3 modes, MIDI programmable. The only thing is that the EQ is not midi controllable. Adding a programmable EQ in the loop would get a lot of flexibility. I’m not necessarily looking for 4,385,034 sounds, but being able to use all three modes of the low gain channels and dialing in a different EQ would be awesome. Basically set the amp and the EQ to the same MIDI channel, so preset 1 is a scooped clean, 2 is a fat clean, 3 is a JTM mild breakup, etc.
        Oh no.....


        Oh Yeah!

          well, I think the digital EQ would work well with that kind of discipline.

            Yep, the Boss EQ200. I used it to cut low end on one setting, boost a mid frequency on another, an overall cut on another.... I didn't generally change it on the fly. I would swap presets before a song and toggle the loop on or off if i wanted it.
