What’s your cab/speaker combo?

There’s also an Uberschall on there

I’m more of a fan Jonas Adams tone from the band Loot. He plays a Powermax Turbo Diesel.

Everybody knows painting hot rod flames on your car makes it go faster… Does painting your VH4 blue make it sound more badass? ?

Programming midi can be a pain in the ass. Morningstar forum is gonna help you there as the programming is controller specific. The amp just “listens” to the midi messages. The only thing you might have to consider is the midi offset in the VHX global settings. Some controllers CC’s start at 1...

Even though it’s a boost discussion, learning a little bit more about the VHX is always exciting. I’ve been tempted to make a demo video for the VHX that goes through each of the voicings and shapes, since there’s not really any good demo’s out there. I just have to find my box of SM57’s...

Ha! I didn't know you were on here (makes sense tbh). Yeah I actually commented on one of your videos asking you to do a comparison test if you had it. I think you were waiting on a head at the time.

I saw that. But he mentions it has the same circuit topology as the MKIII/Hagen? So is that implying there isn’t a VH4 circuit in there (just an approximation of one)? Or is that single gain control the only difference between the circuits? I don’t really care too much. It’s a Diezel at the end...

So the VHX circuit/circuits are based on the Herbert MKIII and the Hagen? Maybe, I'm misinterpreting but does that mean the VH4 circuit itself is not in the VHX? There's no doubt that it's a badass amp that sounds great, but I am curious if I decide to get another Diezel, which would be most...

So the VHX has the gain sweep at the end? I know the VHX has a different wider sweep than the other Diezels, but I'm not too sure on the particulars. I just know Early - 0 is supposed to be a Blueface VH4, Classic - 0 is a Silverface VH4, Classic - 1 or 2 might be the Hagen, and Modern - 0 is...

Trades?

Soul Food? I got one as a gift for my dad years ago. Turns out he only uses Tubescreamers, won’t even look at other overdrives. Might grab it from him next time I visit if it works well with Diezel’s?

Sometimes I run an EQ pedal into the front of the amp to push and reduce certain frequencies coming out of the guitar, while being pretty transparent. Works great. Also remember the sweep of the pots is wider on the VHX than the other amps. I only started to connect what that does to the sound...

I’m not saying you’re wrong. It’s just that the debate won’t ever be settled unless you’re Adam Jones himself and you donate the Blueface for a comparison test. It’s one of the most contentious debates in the Diezel fan club.

Spoiler Alert: The video did not, in fact, settle the debate.
