VH4 Kills

[Trock]

So I got my VH4 on sat afternoon and gigged with it on Sat night and it just kills. For the last couple of years i have been using a Bog 101b and the Diezel is so much thicker yet not muddy. I am happy as a Pig in shit as my tone is now exactly what I have been searching for. Big props to the folks at Diezel !!!

I do have a few questions regarding the midi and Insert loops and am hoping someone here can explain things a bit for me. Does the Vh4 understand CC commands as well as pc commands? I would like to set each channel on its on cc. the reason I ask is that I like to set up the channels on my midi controller as global, so no matter what preset I am on i can change the amp channel.

next: are the insert loops themselves CC assignable ? and when using the loops, can say a phase90 in insert loop 3 be routed to channel 1 ? I dont think it can but Im not totally grasping how the inserts with the send works.

any help would be appreciated!

Chapter 6 and 7 for Midi details.

The channel inserts can only be assigned to it's channel. Ch. 1 / Insert 1, Ch. 2 Insert 2 etc.
You also have a midi switchable loop with the Send 2 function.

Good on ya, Bro... Glad you're loving the Mighty V. I'm in to my VH4S like none other... It's my go-to amp. Sure, there are a lot of other amps I toy with, and hell, even own, but getting on my VH4S is just ALWAYS the best.

Crank 'er up and let 'er breathe. She's just blissful

Speaking of cranking , what volume do you think the vh4 really finds a sweet spot?

The VH4 has different sweet spots. Some subtle changes in tone can be achieved from the Channel volumes and master settings.
With higher master settings you get a bit more roundness and power amp involvement. At higher channel volumes you get a bit more
bight with the power amp setting below 11:00. Around 11:00-12:00 on the MV has always been the sweet spot to my ears on the VH4's Power amp
with the channel volumes about 12-1:00.

Man I couldn't agree more! I sold my Herbert in Dec, and decided to buy a VH4, for the past three weeks, i've been in the woodshed like crazy, something about this amp that
just ignites a passion in me to play, it really is a special amp

Why do i have the feeling that one needs earplugs for that kind of volume , i mean on my 100w Einstein i have the volume at 10 o clock and the master at 8-9 o clock and by ears buzz for a couple of hours after that. THESE THINGS GET INSANELY LOUD. Love it!

PS - my hearing typically returns by the morning But honestly, my V is a 'different' amp with MV at noon to 1 o'clock, and channel 2 and 3 at 8 or 9 o'clock. I do NOT recommend this in a room with any wall hangings, windows, or animals. It's f*ckin' loud. But the amp and cab start to get all weird and alive sounding... Kinda spooky in a real real cool way
