Description

Arlington Audio - Neural Amp Modeler pack ------------------------------------------ Jet City JCA22H Designed by Mike Soldano and modelled closely after the SLO100, The JCA22H is a super affordable SLO type amp that has all the crunch and growl of its big brother in a studio and stage friendly 20 watt EL84 format. This one belongs to the guitarist in one of my bands and I wanted to experiment with how I'd go with capturing something I'd only have access to for a limited time. I believe the experiment went well and having another SLO type amp in the collection can't be a bad thing. At least we can compare it to a 6505 and see how it stacks up? Or even against an actual SLO down the track... Time will tell. What I enjoy about the amp a lot is its flexibility. It's super easy to drive the power section hard and get a rock and roll type of sound on the Crunch channel. On the Overdrive channel, pushing the power section just a little bit reacts in a very similar way to a Rectifier where the high frequencies quit with the fizziness. This amp isn't made for cleans although plugging in a single coil Strat will sound quite nice with little flecks of overdrive on picking. If you've adjusted your interface gain to nearly max, adjust the input control in NAM to -9 and the Strat will clean up extremely nicely. Or you could do the other way and add a boost like a TS9 or OD1 for tight chugginess on the crunch channel. On the lead channel, it'll react a lot like a SLO, 5150, Rectifier etc. A big thanks to Joel M for the lend of the amp. Crunch: Master: 4.1 - Presence: 6 - Treble: 6 - Mids: 4.4 - Bass: 5 Overdrive: Master: 5 - Presence: 4.5 - Treble: 4 - Mids: 5.5 - Bass: 3.4 Technical details: Captures: 34 @ 1000 Epochs per capture. Amp: Jet City JCA22H Channels: Crunch, Overdrive Peak: ~3.5db (average) Load Box: Suhr Reactive Load Interface: RME Fireface UFXII Preamp: Golden Age Pre73 MKIII Reamp Box: Radial Pro RMP (Level modified) Referenced with Event Opal monitors, Sonarworks and Jens Bogren impulse responses (not included) Stuff people have requested: -10dBFS sine tone at 400Hz from DAW -> AC RMS reading of **2.15v** at the 1/4" plug after reamp box. 10^(-10/20) = 0.3162 **2.15**/0.3162 = 6.799 20log(6.799/0.775) = **18.86 dBu** If your interface has 12dBu instrument inputs: 18.86-12 = 6.86, you have to LOWER the input in NAM Plugin to -6.86 dB for the capture to sound correct. While I offer my libraries for free, donations would be appreciated and will go towards expanding this library https://paypal.me/arlingtonaudio
