Gotta say he Jason put a lot of thought into this one and I think it's turning out great. The channel 2 was really killer so I expected the same from channel 3. This to me seems like a KSR Gemini feature wise with Marshall DNA. I really think this is going to be well received.

 
The Alta sounds killer - really impressed with the run through of Channels 2 and 3. I have a Headfirst here that Jason built for me around one of his boards 18 months or so ago and can vouch for the quality of his work. The man makes a mean amp!
 
If it's anything like the 50w Cali that @burger built for me at the end of last year, the Alta is going to be awesome. Jason's amps are totally killer and he's a great guy to work with. If you're on the fence and want to talk to someone who owns one of Jason's amps, just send me a PM! Happy to help push you over the edge :geek:
 
Channel 3 sounds amazing. The intro & outro clips reminds me of the tone on Soundgarden's Superunknown album.

Channel 3 on a lot of amps that share eq tend to just be an oversaturated version of channel 2 or you have to compromise on the tone settings. It sounds like you can set the Alta for distinct sounds on each channel and not even need to touch the eq to make them both sound great.

I'm excited for US production to start. Seriously Jason, just take my money now LOL.
 
Really like the upper mid push and ‘chirp’, an organic openness even at the highest gain levels. Good job, Jason.
I always listen for that magical Marshall kerrannng ‘chirp’ and it’s not there in a lot of high gain switchers.
 
Very, very good sounding amp. Nice layout, components as well. Intrigued... can I get one by Friday :)
