So it ended up being a bit of both which made it tricky to trouble shoot.

Replacing the jack plug got power to the foot switch but it still wasn't switching. Turns out there was a bit of corrosion built up under each micro switch which after a clean up got it all working good as new.

Thanks Surf,

I'm going to test my footswitch on another person's JMD and their footswitch on my amp to determine where the issue lies.

If it is the footswitch that Rocktron one would be perfect although I'm not sure what I'd do with the extra 100 patches!

Hi Guys, I've enjoyed playing exclusively with my JMD:1 50W combo for weekly jamming and the odd gig here and there for the last four years. Last rehearsal though the lights on the footswitch refused to come on when plugging it into the amp. I tried a different cable, "wiggling" the cable no joy. Th...

Hi Guys, G'day from Australia :Australia Had an interesting issue at rehearsal recently. I thought I'd post how I resolved it in case any one else encounters the same thing. Apologies in advance for the long post but I think the more detail I provide the more chances it will be usefull to other user...

Ok, Now I'm confused. Hopefully this may help others in the same boat. I have the JMD:1 501 combo but have recently been running it through a Marshall 1936 cabinet (2 x12 version of the 1960 quad box). The 1936 can run at 8ohms mono or 16 ohms stereo. I have been disconnecting the internal speaker c...

I had pretty much written off the Haze models untill now- thanks! I've added it to my little collection of JMD:1 settings in the attached Excel file for all to share. SurfNorthWest : Any luck with creating a Sticky Thread for user contributed settings? We would probably need a paragraph at the begni...

Hey Guitarest - since you only use the first bank I've got an idea that will help prevent this type of thing happening again. If you save your presets so that A1, B1, C1, D1 etc are all the same setting and repeat the process for all other bank A settings (A2 = B2,C2,D2; A3=B3,C3,D3 etc) then it doe...

Haha - You may be onto something Mike - Computer Forensic analyst right here

+1 here. Sounds like a key feature for the JMD:2

I think you were spot on with the preamp 9 as a base for the distorted part of the intro. I ended up making a patch for the clean part. Clean intro Pre amp 2 Gain 5 B 6 M 4 T 7 V 7 Mod 3.5 heavy chorus Depth 7 Del 2 Depth 7.5 Reverb 2 Distorted part onwards Pre amp 9 Gain 9 B 7 M 4 T 7 V 7 Mod 0 Dep...

Excellent - will try 'em out tonight.

... So now I am pissed and had to start the next tune (Enter Sandman) just before I started the tune I pushed the 2nd position switch again on the floor controller and it worked finally; and it worked the rest of the night. Jocko Hey Jocko - mind if I ask what amp settings and gear you were using f...

Thanks guys, I have the JMD preset list but I didn't see anything for the switch mode defaults. Bam_79, are you saying those defaults are presets A1 - A4? Mike Mike - I'm pretty sure that they were the same default presets but now that I have modded all of mine I can't confirm without doing a facto...

The initial four settings for Bank A 1-4 (as well as all of the other factory presets) are published in the Patch list that comes with the amp brand new. I've attached a copy of it for you.

No - just the non-working switch.
