JMP-1 vs. e530

[Metaltastic]

Haha, damn dude, easy!

 

[DanLights]

I'm just kiddin ya with the shut up part man, noticed how I changed your quote? It's all cool

 

[ParsonsMatt]

The JMP-1 is a cool sounding preamp but for metal the ENGL is better. No comparison. Much tighter, more aggressive, and gainier. I also prefer the clean/low/mid gain sounds on the ENGL to the Marshall.

shut the fuck up




In all seriousness, I think behemoth's overall production is great, super clean and powerfull, but I'm not really a fan of their guitar sound individually. but that could be for another thread,

I always prefering Wieslawski bro production (Vader,Decapitated, Lost Soul, Trauma...)than Behemoth prod. Drum always kickass and guitars really shine.

Sorry to hijack this thread into a Polish production thread

And you owned both simultaneously, right? I'd say that's about the best way to compare!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Nile needs to take a lesson from Behemoth or Kronos for what their tone should be IMO!

+1

I say they should keep their own tone, and not copy someone else. That way it's more interesting than everyone having identical sounds :Smokin:

Where did you guys read that Nile uses JMPs? I saw them live using a JCM, and I also read that they use JCM's for AotW also.

Yeah, owned both, used them both to record, both impulses and mics, played with both of them at gig/practice volumes... I think I know these pres

Really, they are both excellent sounding and if you want the MIDI versatility, the JMP-1 is a great choice, but if you want your 4 basic sounds, the ENGL is pretty much unbeatable for the super tight, super aggressive metal sound.

[Decimator]

Does anyone have any JMP-1-into-impulse audio samples?

Ah, thanks for clearing that up. Do you have a link to that interview?

 

[Mikaël-ange]

Sorry I can't remember where I see this.... It's a metal site with lot of video reviews (Karl explained his technics...etc)...

Did he explain as well as his Betcha Can't Play This video?

they dont say anything bout the jmp1

 

[Fragle]

i'd say jmp1....i used one together with a marshall poweramp (forgot which model) for rehearsals with my old band, and it kicked ass.
plus, someone already mentioned hatesphere....sure, those guys are killer players, but they always sound great live nevertheless ^^

as for the e530, iirc primal fear are using these pretty heavily....other than that, i'm not a big fan....sorta thin imho. but then again, i'm not a big engl fan in general, so take this with a grain of salt.

dallas is such a tighter guitar player the karal

 

[DanLights]

dallas is such a tighter guitar player the karal

true. But I certainly dislike his vocals, things were so much cooler when Jon was in the band. Karl´s vocals KILL, but would suck if used as main vocals, too boring. IMO
