I should say "Hi" properly I just joined the board and am just about to join the Marshall owners club, so hey, everyone, I'm really glad this board and y'all are here. I just dived in on my first post and didn't say hello. Very rude.
A newbie question.... I downloaded the manual for the JMD and I get that there are presets for the various amps and pedals, but if I select one of them am I then 'playing with that amp' or playing with the settings that they USED when they modeled the amp? eg the JVM is suppsed to have "12 unique tones" and they used three of them on the JMD. (first point - I'm guessing that the other 9 aren't 'available', at least as a JVM, maybe using other modeled amps). And then if I take one of the 12 that is included - Overdrive Modern - it "cranks things up with a powerful contemporary crunch, derived from the JVM4's red 'moded' Crunch channel". Have they modeled the amp or one setting of the amp? Did they model the red crunch with a gain of 9 and a reverb of 7.5 etc etc, or the way the whole amp behaves on that chennel? So when I play with the settings on the JMD is it like I've got the JVM red crunch channel and am now adjusting its knobs, or is it like I am starting with a specific tone and now I am making adjustments on top of their settings?
Could be a dumb question, but any answers gratefully received!
