    Vhx questions

    What VHTStark said. The VHX is the only Diezel I've heard or played in-person but in comparison to a lot of clips I've heard of other models, the VHX really has that signature Hi-Fi Diezel sound. It's the most consistent character to the sound throughout all the tonal options. Compared to the...

    Potential future "boutique" effects on the VHX?

    I'm currently running an HX Stomp in 4CM which has helped reduce the size of my board somewhat, but even that doesn't cover everything. I might upgrade the HX Stomp to a fullsize so I have more footswitches available. My endgoal would be Volume Pedal -> Wah -> Infinite Jets -> HX Stomp -> Amp ->...

    Potential future "boutique" effects on the VHX?

    Hey Leo, I know you're working hard on the software editor, but I was curious if you had any ideas for future effects? I currently have a pretty large pedalboard, and I really would like to downsize to a smaller setup. However, a lot of these effects are unique-ish, and so I end up using them...

    Questions about the midcut on the VHX?

    It's honestly like I just unlocked a whole new realm, I was like "Ohhhhhh, that's why people like scooped tones..." I've always hated the fizzy hairyness of an overdrived scooped amp. It sounds thick but it doesn't punch, it just lacks a body. I tried it once or twice when I first picked up...

    Questions about the midcut on the VHX?

    Ahh, cool you learn something new everyday! I usually don't like scooped tones, but damn, I was fiddling with it, and it sounded goooodddd. Thanks Leo!

    Questions about the midcut on the VHX?

    Setting being...? Is it a voice and shape thing or something else?

    Questions about the midcut on the VHX?

    Hey Leo/Peter/somebody who might know, Where is the midcut in the signal chain on the VHX? Also what's frequency/Q-point is it? I'm guessing it's after the preamp but before the FX? I've been messing around with the midcut and the loop EQ to get a real thumpy heavy scooped tone (which I know is...

    VHX Effects Loop Question: Parallel, Series, Both?

    Yup that'll do it! You're a saint!

    VHX Effects Loop Question: Parallel, Series, Both?

    So this is the first amp I've got with this level of control over the effects loop. All my previous amps had series loops, so it was plug and play and figure it out on the pedals. Been messing around with a looper pedal atm, and I'm trying to figure out the mix situation between them both. So...

    What speakers do you like with your Diezel?

    I feel like I should give V30's another shot since everyone is saying how much they love them (even though I had a cab with them for years). When I had them with my 5150 they just seemed to be a little too loose in the low end, but that could have been the amp itself. I'm always trying to find a...

    Diezel VHX

    I'd like to try out an actual Diezel cab one day but that's a long road away. Sometimes I hear people getting sounds out of VH4's on youtube that I can't seem to get, and they're usually playing a Diezel cab. I had the Emperor cabinet made for the VHX. I heard they were high quality and...

    Diezel VHX

    I think speaker/cabinet choices, the band mix, and the playing environment itself have a more significant effect on our individual preferences than might be acknowledged when we are talking about shapes and voicing's. I have two different cabinets I play out of: one is an 412 Emperor RS w/ Weber...

    Share your vhx settings!

    It’s been some time since I’ve seen anybody share their settings, we’ve got some new VHX owners posting on here. What else have you all discovered since owning it? Currently in practice I’m liking Channel 3 - Classic, Shape 1 Gain: 0.45 Bass: 0.50 Mids: 0.80 Highs: 0.65 Deep: 0.50 Presence...

    Diezel VHX

    No I pretty much just use Shape 2 for Leads. Since I’ve posted that, I’ve picked up two new guitars and discovered some uses for Shape 1. The VHX is pretty sensitive to what type of pickups and what type of cabinet you have. I have to be mindful of the bass and depth, and Shape - 2 can be too...

    Suggestions for a “main” backup amp: Carvin Legacy vs PRS Archon vs Marshall DSL vs..?

    You guys are really making me reconsider the DSL. I'll have to go take one for a spin again. How's the tone at lower volumes? Like I said it's been 10 years. I've played the Origin series much more recently, and it was decent, but it seemed like it needed to be cranked before a really good tone...

    Suggestions for a “main” backup amp: Carvin Legacy vs PRS Archon vs Marshall DSL vs..?

    Yeah that legacy certainly seems overpriced, especially since there seems to be some issues with it. It does feel kind of like a one-trick pony as far as the distortion channel sounds. The EQ didn’t do much, and I didn’t hear any reverb. But that thick, warm, dark lead sound was nice. But I’ve...

    Suggestions for a “main” backup amp: Carvin Legacy vs PRS Archon vs Marshall DSL vs..?

    So there’s a Carvin Legacy 1 for sale near me, and I had heard some great things about them. Gave it a spin and damn it kicks ass. But they want $1k for the combo and I’m not too sure that’s a good price. But it’s hard to judge with covflation and the used market, as the combos are kinda rare...

    “Tone is in the fingers” my ass. (RANT)

    They’re definitely not talking about Adam Jones, no of course not. His rig is what you get when you turn a washing machine into an amp with a huge pile of money.

    Serviceability of the VHX in the future?

    Fan-fucking-tastic ? Chefs kiss! Well done! Bravo! Amazing job! Brilliant engineering! I’m very happy to support you all, but I just wanted to know that if in the event something were to happen to the company, would I be screwed if my amp broke? You really should get this information more out...
