Mixwave Turns Your Favorite JHS Pedals into Plugins (Morning Glory, Pulp N Peel, Hard Drive & More)
JHS now has plugins. We are super excited to have collaborated with one of our favorite developers in the space, Mixwave. They made some really cool stuff for some of my friends for Tur Rock, Benson, Milkman, and 1981. Entering into this space, I wanted to do what I always do and just keep it really simple and give you things that I personally enjoy.
So, we're starting this off with the loud is more good amplifier and an extra cabinet so you can switch out speakers and have different microphone arrangements. Then with the effects, we have the pulp and pill compressor which also has the distortion and EQ. The hard drive for high gain sounds. We have the morning glory that I cannot live without.
the Panther Cub, which is actually discontinued, but they modeled this perfectly, and it's super exciting to have this back into the JHS universe. And they also included something we've never released or made. It's called the Nata Spring, and it's awesome. I'm going to leave it on all the time.
So, I'm going to head over to the computer, pull up the plugins, make some presets, and show you what it's all about. A really cool thing about what MixWave does is they do component level modeling. They are actually building all of these devices from the analog world into the digital world component by component. Each resistor, each capacitor, transistor, tube, even with the delay, they are replicating the bucket brigade chipset.
So these are actually JHS designs living in the computer. So this is a very basic setup that so many of you are familiar with. We have a digital audio workstation. We're using ProTools.
You can use Logic. You can use whatever you want. And I just have the guitar plugged into the interface. So we have a channel here, guitar.
It's a stereo track. You just open it up. And here it is. First off, the amp pulled up, but you actually have a linear path.
The pulp and pill here. You have the morning glory here, the hard drive, panther cub, but you can slide these around. You can do crazy stuff. To me, the fundamental thing you want to do first in any digital realm is, is the amp good?
This also is the same in the analog world. You can have the best pedals, the ...
