Which leaves me with a choice:
1. Use the amp for clean+high gain, with pedals for mid-tones.
2. Figure out a way to replace the clean channel with something else, using the amp for mid tones and high gain.
3. Get a different amp.
I'm not longing for midi switching and 4-cable method. It seemed like it could be a cool thing, but in practice, seems finnicky with whatever device you use - unless you've got some beefy Bradshaw rig... it's probably not worth doing. To my mind anyway.
So yeah I could get the 100-watt (or swap my JVM for one of the 100watts) but if I can figure a way to do this whilst keeping the lightweight nature of the 50-watt, then I would be happy. So far pedals as the mid tones is the best route I've come up with.
Nice idea! =D>

THAT crunch!!
When I write stuff it often starts out as something like the above; a moodboard, or riff palette, just to kick things off. This was done using the preamp output of the EVH, into Logic X, then using Recabinet with some custom impulse responses I made of my Egnater cab - it's very close to my live sound, which I find really inspiring to write with. I am able to do this at all times of the day or night - technology win.
No ears were harmed during the making of this moodboard

Same recording process as the other one - preamp out into my MOTU 8-Pre, dummy jack in the headphone socket to stop the sound getting out into the cab. Recabinet running some of my own impulses. This amp sounds much better than taking the FX loop send from the JVM. I can't explain why.
Would that work??
I realised last night I could probably use a stereo-in pedal, like my Zoom MS70CDR for instance, which is why I took it out the classifieds! Gonna try it some time today. If it works okay, then it's just about finding the right modeller for the clean tones - no point having something as large as the GSP!
