    It %100 is the GX130C in preamp form (the schematics are out there to compare)... however, the head and combo versions of the GX130C have like three specific resistor/capacitor differences in the lead channel, marked on the schematic in parentheses. The XLP uses the values of the combo version at the same positions, rather than the head.

      I believe bleeding was a layering of a marshall valvestate (actually not the 8100 model if you look at studio footage maybe the 8200) and a gx130

    It gets signal but it’s sounds VERY VERY weak. Audio is coming out of my cabs but barely. Any thoughts?

      I'm guessing the Aural Exciter is really required for this amount of definition. I had one of these and it's actually not that tight by itself.

    What are you using as the "poweramp" modelling in the two notes, and can you shoot one without the exciter? Only because I'm curious what the impact on the tone is. This has an awesome sizle to it and also sits nice in the mix. It's just... fat... In a way you usually don't hear solid state sit. And I'm wondering what I can or should do with my Peavey Supreme, if I should excite it and run it through two notes too ;p. Also this is double tracked, or is it quad tracked? Either way, sounds bitchen.

    • @ultimatemetalguitartones

      Thx for the nice comment! No power amp used, this is the preamp and the aphex straight into the interface! Double tracked!
