Do you know if you can assign parameter changes to a footswitch or is this only done using the expression pedal?
@JustinBlair

Great question - as far as I know, the footswitches are only for swapping rigs, engaging pedal models, and accessing the tuner or looper - I don't believe you can assign effect parameters to them. Thanks for checking out the video!

Diggin the middle finger inlats! Very nice FF! Customer service? Thats red flag for me. I have yet to even receive a response from a case inquiry. Maybe it got lost in the ether. However, I did pickup the 3 pup SG style guitar about a week ago, and it was instantly the best one I own. I dont own any high dollar, but it blows my squire and epiphone LP special out of the water. I am currently waiting on a Katalox 338, will be my first ever semi hollow. I cant wait!

Can I use different configurations for the outputs simultaneously? One with IR and another without it in the same patch?

Great question - What I bet you could do is create a stereo split rig, with the L side including an IR and the R side without an IR, then use the L and R outputs as two separate outputs. I haven't tried this but I think it should work...

Question about using IR - when adding IR to the chain (and turning off the cabinet), are you still can output the HR MX5 to an (real) Amp front? 10x!
@JustinBlair
@JustinBlair 2 месяца назад
Good question! Yes you definitely can, but you may want to make adjustments on both the amp and the MX5 to make sure your sound is coming out normal. For example, make sure to have the amp on the Clean channel, and adjust the eq to balance any eq-ing on the Headrush. Thanks for watching!

@JustinBlair

Thanks for checking out the video! Glad it was helpful. The drop tune pedals are actually in increments of half steps, so dropping '1' on the Headrush actually means dropping a half step. Hope that helps!

Hi, I just wanted to give an update on the P800 I had delivered yesterday. I’ve spent a couple hours playing it and figuring out the app. And I got to say I love the guitar and the app! I figured out how to do almost everything, and the app works perfect and in my opinion, and I don’t find it difficult to navigate. I was a bit concerned on that, as the reviews on the app were pretty negative. But I gladly found it to be the opposite of what the complaints were. The only thing I couldn’t figure out was how to put my own rigs on the 4 buttons on the guitar? If you could help me on that, I would appreciate it! I got the red P800 because it came with the pedal, and a little amp, and was $50 less than the same guitar alone. And well it’s not red! lol! It’s orangish/red! Kind of like tomato soup made with milk color. Not the color I would ever purposely want. But with that said, I don’t care, the guitar plays so good! It was set up perfect out of box, the neck and frets were very smooth, and just plays fantastic! I’ve only had it a day, but got nothing bad to say about the way it plays and sounds! Thank you again for your great review!
@JustinBlair
@JustinBlair 6 месяцев назад
Glad to hear you're enjoying the guitar! Hopefully the color grows on you in time haha, but worst case scenario, a paint job is always an option too.... To put your rigs on the 4 banks switchable through the button, just pop four different tones on one of the bank channels (1A 1B 1C 1D for example) then you should be able to toggle through those four with the knob's button. Enjoy!
@HumbleHeartMinistry
@HumbleHeartMinistry 6 месяцев назад
I bought the P800 going to be here Friday. I never even thought of this until you said it at the beginning of the video. But does the guitars effects you set up on the super button only work if the app is on and connected, or will the four you save on the guitar still work without app being connected? Would be kind of a bummer if the effects don’t work once saved to guitar without the app. That would mean I would have to have a Wi-Fi signal wherever I wanted to play the guitar using the built in effects. I’m hoping I heard you wrong?
@JustinBlair
@JustinBlair 6 месяцев назад
Thanks for checking out the vid, and great question - Once the 4 tones are stored in the guitar, you do NOT need to turn the app on to access them; they'll be stored in the guitar's internal memory. Also, just FYI, you won't need a WiFi signal to change the tones from your app either - you connect directly to your guitar from your phone. Hope that's helpful!

I have a brand new cabinet from Harley Benton and when I connect it to a Hughes and Kettner Spirit of Rock amp there's a really loud amp noise when it's turned on and I don't play. Even when the gain is at minimum. Will a noise killer be able to silence this?
@JustinBlair
@JustinBlair 7 месяцев назад
Hmm, it might - does the amp still make that noise when you unplug the guitar cable from it? If the noise is from something in the amp, a noise killer might not help, but if it is humming coming from an issue in the guitar or the cables, it should be able to help that.

Hi, I have a question to your present number 007. I see you are using a stock cab instead of an IR. Is it possible to get a good sound with such set up in a live situation going straight to FOH or do you simply use other pedals etc to make it work? I am asking as I am not able to get a decent sound out of the stock cabs...
@JustinBlair
@JustinBlair 8 месяцев назад
Great question - the stock cabs definitely can be used for some great tones, when mixed right (either live or in studio) BUT I personally vastly prefer IRs - when I actually play live, I almost always use IRs instead of cab sims.
