Has anyone ever mixed Crunch Berries with Peanut Butter crunch? They're individually awesome, so I bet together they'd be the shit. Damn, I don't have any right now..
Ha! i too have jumped off the Behringer V amp bandwagon in favor of the 1101. I like it a lot so far, but I need help dialing in good high gain tones. any tips? you seem to have that down pretty well.
The noise gate failure there? It happens. It's turned down to be on the edge of my sensitivity threshold, so as to not lose any sustain and retain natural sounding decays. I screwed up worse at 1:45, accidentally finger muted that note.
Exactly 0% of my crunch is the Windsor. 100% of the tone comes from the GSP1101. The Windsor is there to be a clean power amp only, so there is nothing plugged into the input on the Windsor, the GSP1101 goes straight to the loop return bypassing the preamp altogether.
Thanks pal! I made it with MIDI. The drums are a Tama kit I purchased samples from betamonkeymusic, then threw them into a custom SF2 which will work on most Creative Labs cards. Everything else is the stock General MIDI 8MB soundfont on the audigy 2 series.
you might have sold me on the Digitech, i had a gt10 and personaly i thought it was horrid, amp sims and distortion sounds were really bad, effect were ok, but still not that great imo, too bad, it was a sharp unit and well layed out, the options were the best and easy to use.
I hope this thing will work out better for me in the home studio context.
Distortion sounds good and there are a few good pedal sims to try, that sounds great just using the marshall amp sim.
Word on the GT10. I ordered that thing in hopes of using a decent volume pedal to fade in/out and a good metal sound, damn thing made too much noise and sounded WAY too artificial! RETURNED
It's the stock Trem on the guitar, it's very nice, doesn't go out of tune easily or anything. The pickups here are D-Sonic 7's, aftermarket and rewired. I took the coil-tap out, installed a standard 3 way switch, I find coil-tapping to create odd buzzes, and give me no real advantage in sound. Others will disagree, and they will have valid points.
Yeah, the good old Digitech Whammy... I can't get into using it, even though the effect is in the GSP1101, so I use Artificial Harmonics to get close,but I think you're absolutely correct.
Shiver me timbers! Five stars for the playing and five stars for the audiovisual proof that the Windsor works great as a poweramp for a multi-FX unit.
what MIDI expression pedal are you using? I have the FCB1010, so what ends up happening, is I set my GSP1101 to control what I want it to control with expression links 1-9, and set the two I want to control... usually I make everything 7 and 8, so I don't have to put new info into the pedal all the time... but it really depends on your MIDI pedal.
haha, I would so love to be able to explain it all, but this box is way too small. There's a lot of good vids exsisting already on setting up the FCB1010, I could always make one later for using it with the GSP1101... just remember, how I use it and how others use it, may be really different
Easy answer to this one. I bought my MIDI pedal 3 years ago, the control 2 didn't exsist. I'd still go with the behringer now, for the 2 expression pedals, and lack of custom mods to the MIDI standard.
I was doing an artificial harmonic on the octave at 1:19.. I believe emppu really does something slightly different there, that was my best approximation. Thanks man!
Yes indeed! This is the same trick, it's an artificial harmonic. I'm touching the string lightly at a specific point with a finger on my pick hand, to cancel out the fundamental tone, and only let certain harmonics ring. A lot of people use their thumb to do it, I use my index finger... it's whatever is easiest for your style. Check for videos on pinch harmonic how-tos or artifical harmonics, there's a lot of fantastic instructions for this on youtube.
Thanks man. Tried to get one real wet feeling and heavy, but smooth simultaneously. On that patch, I'm using the JCM2000 model, gain is cranked at 92 (out of 100) EQ is mid scooped (lame I know) 7.3Bass 4.7 Mid 7.5 Treb, amp level at 75. Then there's a distortion box model in front of an Ibanez TS-808 Overdrive:80 Tone:90 Level:60
Awesome vid! Awesome song! And awesome massive tone!
Have you used the gsp in a full-band set up?? Just wondering as I'm thinking about getting a 1101, but some of the modellers I've heard in the past sound good but cant cut through the mix in a live setting.
I'm currently running a PSA1 in the loop of an old boss GX700. I love my setup but the boss is a getting bit tempremental in its old age - not sure whether to get a gsp1101 or the boss GTpro.
I use this rig in my band, the key with the GSP1101, or any modeler seems to be to get a tube poweramp for it. The Carvin TS100 is good low cost, I'm using a Peavey Windsor just as a power amp. The BOSS GT-Pro vs GSP1101 is a tough call... I went with the GSP1101 and am happy, but make sure to try them both. The tube power amp will make sure you compress as you come close to the clip point so it will definitely have good tonal dynamics when loud.
Cool, thanks a lot for the tip! I've been using a SS power section until now because thats what tech21 recommends for the PSA1. I'd like to try the gsp through tube & SS to hear the difference.
I read somewhere that you can't set a tap tempo on the GSP with a regular midi controller & so need the control2 pedal - have you been able to set up tap tempo with your FCB1010??
Sorry man.. I have nothing for you... my setup is entirely different than yours would be... I think you'd be better off with a Valveking.. I just needed a cheap power amp, and the Windsor was perfect at only $319 USD
Hey man... EMG's didn't come with this one, you're probably thinking of the pro version which is usually scarecely available. This came with stock crappy pickups which I replaced with my standard 7-string combo of 2 Dimarzio D-Sonic 7's.
Surprisingly quite well. I had to shim the nut by .2mm in order to get the action I wanted out of it, but the craftsmanship I would guage just below that of a Japanese made Jackson. with the D-Sonic 7's it's extremely nice sounding, and plays easily. it's worth the $430 for sure.
DUDE, this has got to be the most epic self made guitar vid on youtube! The hat....the song....everything. I laughed so hard but in a good way. Great playin man keep rocking bezerk pirate style! -Jeff
woulda been way more epic if I could have filmed it on a tall sailing ship like I wanted... but well... I have a budget, and I spent it all on the hat.
How is the windsor responding to the modeling and effect,are you driving and feeling the tubes and is this setup better sounding then just a solid state poweramp?Looking into purchasing a diditech or a x3 live but i dont want the amp to feel numb,i want to feel the amp.Also great playing man(i meen captain)
haha, thanks! Here's the deal on the Windsor, the flavor of the EL34's comes out when I do crank it, but doesn't color the sound at all. Basically lets you get really loud, and the bass/treble never overpowers the signal. The GSP1101 is the best compromise between ease of use and a living feeling modeller I've used yet. The X3 has that lifeless feel (as well as the line6 buzz) to me that I do not like, but a convienient floor package. I can't qualify that opinion so feel free to disagree!
Hey,i wont disagree,you have obviously more experience then me,i have only been playing for 4 yrs and i dont practice enough.I have owned a peavey bandit and a spider 1 combo and sounded good for what they were but never really loved playing until i got a peavey classic 50 so i am affraid of loosing that tube fealing i fell in love with but i do love the idea of these modeling preamps to get all these wonderful sounds.Does using the preamp of the windsor color the sound or does it just sound bad
hey again, I don't actually use the Windsor's preamp, but I'm sure if I did, it would color the sound in a negative way. The GSP1101 is going straight into the effects return, so it bypasses the Windsor Preamp altogether... effectively making it the least expensive 100-watt poweramp ever.
I'm thinking of using the gsp1101 with a behringer fcb 1010 exactly like you... how is it with the expression pedals? do they work good? is there any delay when you use wah or whammy with the expression pedals? (i'm asking because when i connect the fcb 1010 in the v-amp, there is a delay when i use the wah)... cheers!
Heya, no, the GSP1101 is completely lag free with the wah, also when comparing to the V-amp, the patch switching is also lag-free. The GSP1101 has up to 2 sconds of effects spillover, makes the patch switches sound very natural by letting reverbs or delays fade out on their own.
The GSP1101 is primarily an amp modeller, it has overdrives, distortions, wahs, harmonizers, choruses and delays built into it, so it's almost a one stop shop for everything.
Ahoy there! Nice video. I own a GSP1101, and it is by far the best Amp modeller in the market today, period. I own lots and lots of gear, several pre-amps (Tech21 PSA1.1, line6 pods, etc etc , but also old fashioned Tube amps, Mesa power amps, Mesa cabs...)and this piece of gear is awsome for tone shaping,FX and direct recording. I use ESP and PRS usa guitars and all sound terrific through it. All the best.
I completely agree that it's a great tool. I do like it better than the PSA 1.1, and line 6 array. there's a BOSS GT-Pro unit that is really complicated but it allows you to put effects anywhere in the chain, and it sounds really nice. But the GSP1101 gets great sound with no complication... which I like.
Hi again. True, about the GT-Pro. I owned a GT-8 sometime ago, it has the GT-Pro same specs (FX and sounds, and i already sold it), you can tweak the effects nicely, but the sound is too artificial for me...
Like i said, i've been playing guitar since 1990, and after having tried almost every piece of gear out there(i work in a music store) it's by far the best, and cheapest amp mod. in the world. And it's made in the usa !!! I use other stuff also, but this one rocks ;) Best regards.

How much of your low power chord crunch is the Peavey Windsor? I run a Marshall JMP-1 with a Boogie 50/50 and can't get that low mid crunch.

I'm using my old Behringer FCB1010 for MIDI control, works really well. I like the 2 expression pedals on the FCB1010.
