Nice tone. The leads could be a little more out front but otherwise, nice job. The BM works well with that amp.

What kind of speakers? Sounds grindy. or is that the ped?

Guys over on Harm Central were raving about the BM as a goose for a long time.

Well, it is "another" Tube Screamer clone apparently. ;)

Nice tone! But I can hear that typical 'bottom end drop' that these pedals have, making it seem that they have a mid hump.
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

\m/\m/ Man all your clips kick ass, I didnt liek the tone as much as on the previous ones but still good!
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

I like this tone more than the other, very crunchy and has that chunk from a marshall i like. Nice work, may have to look into that pedal.
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

While I like the tone, I have to be honest with ya man.

I think there's something wrong with the way you're micing the amps up. They all have this weird quality to them that just sounds a bit off. I can't put my finger on it exactly, but would you be able to post a pic of how you're setting up the mic, what mic you're using, and what the rest of the signal chain is?

Excellent Lead Tone. Very thick Rhythm Tone, but still a Little bit granny/crispy brightness on the top end stuff. but still very good.
Q:)
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

sounds good to me! especially the lead tones.
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

Nice tone man and good playing. What were you using for a guitar?

Sure!

Don't have a pic, I've moved the mic's since, but here's how it was set up:

I've got an SM57 on a V30, SM58 on G12T-75, and MD 421 on the other V30. I aimed each mic at the edge of the dust cap, then angled toward the opposite side of the dust cap. The mic's go to a Behringer UB-2442 FX Pro, then each mic's channel direct out to an Edirol FA-101, which is connected via firewire to the computer.

Drums are DFH, bass is a VST instrument (and a little liberal in the sub-lows, I might add).
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

Ah ok. Have you tried just using a single 57 on a V30? that tends to be a winning combination for me. I'd place the mic perpendicular to the baffled, aimed straight at the part where the dustcap meets the cone, and then adjust to taste.
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

Yessir, I have. I did some A/B/C-ing with the three on both rhythm tracks. I haven't experimented enough for this head/cab to be happy with the mic placement, just positioned them all the same. The combination sounds a lot better than each mic on its own. What surprised me was the kick in the 'nads from the SM58 on the G12T-75. Muting/un-muting those tracks was night and day for certain.
 
Re: CLIP: Marshall JCM 800 2203 Digitech Bad Monkey test

I actually quiet like the tone and say keep on keepin on! Sounds very open, airy, and big instead of the typical very direct and in your face nature of many modern tones. I guess thats what three different mics gets ya.
