JSX Head and the 2101

2006-08-12 by J spazi

Hello Group.
I have the Peavy JSX and a 2101. I have been trying to figure out how to enhance the amps awsome distortion tone with the Effects of the 2101. For some reason I can't figure it out.... I used to just plug the 2101 in to my Marshall's FX loop. Apparently this is a little more complicated. Help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Jorma

Some way you must try to set up is to plus you guitar in the JSX head and the send of JSX into the return of GSP (use NO SUM in the fx loop of GSP) and the out of GSP into the return of JSX, Like this you will be using the effects and digital section of GSP with the preamp of JSX (amazing head)
Do you wish to use the preamp of GSP too?

Hello 

I have a couple of the 2101's. I also have the JSX head with a 6505 
Bottom cab. I have tried several ways in hooking the path of the 
2101 with the JSX. If you bypass the distortion in the program 
parameters, you will be able to use the amp distortion, however you 
may need to tweak the EQ, master level, noise gate, and the wet to 
dry mix to find a sound you like. I would suggest getting a modified 
DS-1 by Robert Keeley. I use the pedal mainly as a boost for mids 
and solos. It may be the ingredient you are looking for. I have 
currently found a happy distortion with the 2101. Here is how I path 
my effects. Guitar/Sabine RT-7000/2101 input/left mono out/highgain 
imput of JSX. I used the clean channel. 

I also have floor effects That I use in conjuction with the 2101. 
These are path through the effect loop of the JSX. Wah pedal/DS-
1/MRX-phase 90/BossPS-5/Digitec Whammy/Boss DM-2 delay.

If you really want to hear the 2101 at it's best. I have played it 
through many amps of all makes and models. The absolute best in my 
opinion was the Peavey Classic 30, which I use for smaller venued 
gigs. 

Please if anyone has other Ideas on pathing the 2101 with the JSX 
along with setting recommendations, we are all ears. Thanks

Thank you for the Responses Daniel and Clint.
Clint, I checked out the Keely DS-1 nice sound. I wish they would have skipped the effects on the samples. I like to know what the raw sound is. Regardless this Keely guy knows his Sh*t! Hows that 6505 Cab sound? I read the triple X cabs are the way to go.

Back to the problem. So I tried:
Guit -> 2101 In -> 2101 Out (L Mono) -> JSX Hi. I didnt like how I had to turn the volume of the 2101 up to make the JSX gain like normal and sounded noisy too

I used to own a DSP256 back in the early 90's. Loved that thing. Just plug the fx loops in and its inserted. I wonder why the 2101 dosent utilize the same method.
I may need to just grab another unit or pedals...god I havent used one in 10 years.
