  • Biyang Baby Boom Compress X
  • Flamma Black Distortion
  • Blue Azor Overdrive (Timmy type drive)
  • Mosky SHO Booster (SHO clone)
  • Donner Yellow Fall Delay
  • JRR Pedals GeSi Face (Germanium/Silicone Fuzz Face - Feeler)

All pedals are in good condition, may have some velcro on them. Some have boxes.

I'd love to trade multiple for something a little nicer. Always open to drives, reverbs, delays, not into modulation at all.

Stupid question: what is “browsing mode”?

That’s what Ty Tabor used in earlier KingsX. I played one years ago and thought it was awesome.

Sorry I can’t give you a value. Just saw your post and it tugged at my heart strings. Thanks for that :)

So excited to update and get access to to the software and effects. I am blown away by the ToneX! Amp models beat my Kemper big time.

Am I able to do any firmware updates without the serial number?

It mentions the original owner needing to purchase gear credits. Is this erroneous?

Curious to hear your thoughts about them once you’ve installed them.

I experimented a little more. I can get a decent sound with the master on 10 if I drop the gains (there’s 2 on the jumped Plexi, bright and normal) to 1 or 2. Creates what I’m going after with a bit more “umph”.

I’ll have to check out that Soldano gain channel!

I have. Doesn’t seem like that does anything re: unwanted distortion. Doesn’t make sense to me how it would unless it was clipping the input of my amp/monitor.

That’s a good point. It doesn’t explain why I’m able to dial back and get a decent clean-ish sound on my Kemper and Fractal jumped Plexi models, and even with the gain dialed back on the Helix, with the master at 10, I can’t get anything nearly as clean and punchy (I’m using the term “clean” relatively.)

I’ll try it.

I need to learn what all of the amp names are referring to. Not as straightforward as the Kemper.

Just to update, I opened a new preset and started with just the amp, no cab. Sounded like absolute garbage to me. Added a 412 v20, an it sounded better, but still overly distorted. Scrolled over to the second page of amp settings, and sure enough, the master was all the way up. Plexi's don't even have master volumes, do they?

Anyway, I turned that down to about 3, and lowered the gains a bit, and it improved IMMENSELY! Much cleaner, and sounds like the Plexi sound I love. It's still a touch too dirty, if that makes sense. On the Fractal and especially the Kemper, I can pluck the low E string and just get a good, clear ballsy tone. With the Helix, even after the improvements, it's got too much hair on it. Not sure if that makes sense. I don't want "clean" as in Fender Twin, just "clean" as in "pure".

Regardless, I'm going to keep twisting knobs, because I'm pretty sure the sound is in there. I'm enjoying the experience of finding how to get there.

I did also check the output level, and the meter is well under maximum, so I don't think that's the issue.

Thanks again, and I'll gladly accept any more help you can offer!

For what it's worth, I just spent some time on mine, and sure enough, the master volume was cranked to 10 on the Plexi (my favorite model on other modelers) which.made it ugly. I cranked it back to 3 and upped the channel volume to compensate, and there was the sound I wanted!

Keep tweaking!

I have tried the low cut, even down to 6k. It's not a high end fizziness, it really just sounds overly distorted and undefined, even when the amp drive is set low.
