My name is Juca Nery and I’m a Portuguese musician, sound designer, songwriter, guitarist and mixing engineer.
For more info on what I use, please PM me.
Kind Regards.
I need to trade my Marshal CODE 50 for a BOSS Katana.
I just did that lol it was worth it
Dang. I was gonna do the opposite
@@1Capnjazz boss katana is the best affordable solid state amp it’s awesome
@@zman_1148 it is definitely the one that sounds and feels most like a tube amp and as loud or close to. Second one that is really good as well is the line 6 catalyst 60.
Just got that one and really comparable to the ktn, 50.. but volume wise the katana is louder.. other good one is black star if I remember right Id core 100 2-10. But I have heard reliability issues with the id core amps..
I have a lot of different "Modern Metal" patches I've made that are a bit more dialed in, especially if you are interested in specific genres of metal. Djent, SLAM, DeathCore, Brutal Slamming Deathcore, BeatDown, Black Metal, Grindcore, PornoGrind, ect. If you are interested in making videos on them explaining the nuances of each genre and how their tones differ, and what to do to get the specific tone, let me know and we talk and link drives.
x 艾Hooligan艾 x yeah that would be fucking awesome!! how can we communicate together?
Djent patch plz
Do you have your patches uploaded anywhere? I’d like to check out the slam tone

Best knowledgeable instructions on katana by a mile.. you rock, I'm glad I got katana librarian.. night and day difference improvement by a mile.. amp sounds good basic Tweeks on top panel but good becomes great with katana librarian app well worth the small fee..
Many thanks man :) Cheers
Finally someone that likes to put time to find a serious tone
Thanks man :) Cheers
Juca thank you so much for doing this video. I knew this could be done but really was not sure how to really dial in my tone but this solves it for me. Thank you!
Man I cannot say thank you enough. As someone new to guitar playing I had no idea about amp settings and was severely struggling to get a good sound from my amp. I also had this really loud hissing static soundthat drove me nuts and wouldn't go away no matter how much I turned up the noise gate. I had no idea that the EQ was so important in developing your sound. Your explanation using the visual representation of your sound extremely easy for me to understand how the cute works and now I have an absolutely blistering thick modern heavy metal tone that literally had my friends dropping their jaws. Thank you so much for taking the time out to make this video. I went from wanting to sit on my equipment on fire to writing some of the best music I've ever written.
Many thanks!!! Glad to hear that!!! Be safe mate. Cheers
What he said.. you rock dude!
Thanks 🙏🏻
Idk why it turned out to be so thin for me with no sustain at all. Feels like I messed up somewhere but I'm sure I followed the steps correctly. The only thing is though, I tried to do it on my Boss katana 50 mkII but I only had Channel A and B. In channel B there was an Echo crunch preset that I did the mods on and then saved it as Modern metal. Do you think that may be the reason why it sounds so flat? I did make sure to reset all knobs to zero before starting though.
@@JucaNeryGuitar can u make a deathcore one?
Any time I hear the katana stock, I’m not too impressed with the sound. But watching you tweak the settings makes me think of getting one. It sounds like a 5150.
Many thanks J. Cheers
My guy, thanks so much for putting this up. I just got a Mk2 and haven't played around with the settings so much just till now, this really showed me how much customization there is in this thing!
Thanks man :) Cheers
Does it djent?
Awesome as usual my friend. Damn...that Mk2 enhance mode sounds SO much better
Not a good tone on speakers maybe recording but yeah gotta make ones that sound good live
This sounds amazing! You got a New subscriber. I am considering buying this amp next week (MK2 Head Versión + Avatar 2x12 Cab Celestion V30 speakers) do you think its a good choice? Or do you recomend combo version? Sorry for My english :(
Many thanks!!! Definitely a great choice :) The combo version is also great. But with the head you can always get different cabs! Go for it! Cheers
Got it! Thank you so much :)
@@darwinrh Great! :)
@@JucaNeryGuitar i would like to purchase a tone pack from you so i can just download the whole amp setup??
Followed you're eq settings. I can't believe how good my amp sounds haha thanks for the video!
Awesome 👍🏻
Hello Juca, I think my katana 50 is defective.
This is the sound I get with all base settings (all off and volume 50, bass 50, mid50, treble 50 and gain raised to 80)
Terrible sound, some cracking and feels like a low input signal amplified (no punch, terrible mutes, etc)
dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/d5x1klw4psguqrm/test%284%29.mp3
I'm doing something wrong?
Is a Katana 50 MkII connected to my scarlett 2i4 (same sound with USB)
Tested with 3 guitars (the recording is with active EMG81...)
No issues at all in PC with emulation like Bias FX
Dude, you need lower gain. That's too much. When you put too much gain it starts getting fuzzy.
Lower the gain and make a compensation on the booster. It will be better.
Man, I don't know if my Boss Katana is messed up or what but nothing sounds good. I downloaded this patch from the boss tone exchange site and even watched this video to compare my settings and it sounds nothing like this. Completely flat. Seems like ever patch I download sounds terrible. I kinda regret this purchase.
Happened to me, try this: ua-cam.com/video/TjcLUlbCTIo/v-deo.html
where i can i download this at?
Thanks. Very helpful to see how you use the EQ to tighten up the sound. Exactly what I needed.
Thanks :)
my issue is the feedback from using some of the effects like metalzone. loud errrrrrrrrrrrr buz noise even whenn im recording.
Do you have the noise supressor engaged?
What's the song in the background playing from 0:20 to 1.30
It's one of those free youtube musics.
Holy smokes how do I get the stone on my katana is there anyway I could download it or buy it off you?
Check here: jucaneryguitar.com/product/progressive-metal-pack/ | jucaneryguitar.com/product/metal-amps-pack-ii/
I tried this setting with emg 81 and sound is totally different than yours.
Probably because of the pickups.
Thanks a lot I got a this amp yesterday and you saved me a lot of time, also I understand it more. Cheers
Awesome! Cheers :)
I've just bought the Boss Katana 50 mkll. I see that there are 6 liveset patches in Tone Central, which I'm not interested in.
I would love the Rock Legends Livesets but it doesn't seem possible to load them. bosstonecentral.com/liveset/category/katana/
Is it because they are for the previous Katana model and not for the new one? Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Can you advise?
Peter Smith Hi, most patches for the first generation, arent avaible yet for MK2 . I think they will be soon avaible for MK2.
@@karolybendeguzbok4119 Thanks for clearing that up. I'll wait patiently.
Honestly, this is a great patch. Just imported your diezel into my mkI and also impressive
Thanks :)
My metal tone is better than yours. It's beastly like Sabbath.
Good 👍
I just picked up a katana 100 mk2 today and wasn't happy with any of the livesets or default sounds... this video will help me dial in my own sound! but honestly the best thing was at the end, I have never thought about splitting up 2 layers left/right like that! that is brilliant!
Glad you liked it! Thanks :)
Hi Juca, can you use EMG 51 bridge and make also a video like this? I really love your videos thank you so much
sounds great. I like the tone with and without the EQ. nice job
Thanks man :) Cheers
This is awesome I've just bought a katana 50 mk ll, and wanted to get a metal sound, first video i came across was yours, totally awesome, do you just use the standard katana library app, or have you up graded the app?
Thank you
Thanks! just Boss Tone Studio. Cheers
what model is your guitar are they standard pickups please?
@@sweeneyTodd-de4by It's a prs bernie marsden se, all stock.
Jose Mourinho rocks 🤟
Thank you for this excellent video! I've been struggling with finding a good metal tone for my compositions and recording. This has been so helpful!
Thanks :)
How do you NOT have more subs? I mean this is brilliant stuff. I bought a Katana a while ago and this is the first time i feel confident enough to start tweaking stuff on it. Keep up the good work!
hey bro! are you using your speaker out in "rec" or "live"?
Rec.
When using the studio. Will the amp automatically play out through whatever speaker the computer has hooked up or is it possible to hear it through the amp as you are playing? Also is it possible to change the boost and mods on the amp itself? Look if I want to always have a blues driver available vs a tube screamer?
No, it just plays from the amp itself. It's just when you're recording via USB or Line out that you can hear the amp via other speakers. Yes, 3 boosts to choose. Yes, that's why you need tone studio to setup that. If you need more help contact me here: jucaneryguitar.com/contact-2/ Cheers
Hey, when I copy everything you did my guitar tone sounds very weak and thin. I'm trying my hardest to get a trivium tome and it's very frustrating
I don’t know if it’s that because I don’t have my Katana yet but could it be that you listen to the audio coming from the amp itself? Because if yes, it could be due to the open back I think because that can make one lose many of the low frequencies.
JT Splosion of that’s the case try to plug the amp into your computer and listen through your headphones or so
What guitar are you using ?
Try changing your line out air feel to REC in settings.
I think it's because of your guitar
Please make a tutorial about mastodon tone
Thank you Juca! Man this is awesome of you.
Thank you! how can I download it?
You're welcome, follow the tutorial and check this page: jucaneryguitar.com/free-stuff/ Cheers
Bro, i use a ce24 semi hollow for metal sometimes and it's brutal 🤘🤘🤘
Yes they are brutal! Cheers :)
Cool watching a master at work. Great sounding patch 🤘🤘
Many thanks!!! Cheers
Hey there I thought I would ask a general question. If I have an Overdrive patch going I get plenty of noise and know that if I can engage the NS to handle noise, but when engaged and I turn my volume down that basically cuts out volume. So, I can hook up an external NS through efx loop to take the internal NS out of equation or is there some other method to use where I lower volume without cutting out. Thanks for your input
Yeah, the noise supressor is not the best one on the Katana. That without the cutting the volume it depends on the settings. I prefer to have some noise and not have cuts in sound. Cheers
can i use the sneaky amps Core Metal with those settings?
Hi, I don't use the sneaky amps. But you can use them of course. Cheers
Is the Mk1 50 a raging piece of shit compared to the mk2 100? My mk50 sounds like a pile of shit compared to what your amp sounds like here after if dialed it the same way(after I did a factory reset too).
It's not bad, but the 100 has a different voice. Cheers
Idk why it turned out to be so thin for me with no sustain at all. Feels like I messed up somewhere but I'm sure I followed the steps correctly. The only thing is though, I tried to do it on my Boss katana 50 mkII but I only had Channel A and B. In channel B there was an Echo crunch preset that I did the mods on and then saved it as Modern metal. Do you think that may be the reason why it sounds so flat? I did make sure to reset all knobs to zero before starting though.
If you saved as I did after the tutorial, you have overwritten the channel, so the tone should be at least similar. How's the room where you play? Cheers
mins is just coming out in a clean setting, not the best, using emgs 81/89 my passic pickups seem to take better to this amp
Totally my case, I have an Epiphone Dot that sounds amazing in this amp (just with the factory settings, no tone central) and also an Epi Explorer with Emg 81/85 that sounds inferior IMHO, I even thought that the Emgs were fake lol
I just wanted to add that the celestion classic lead 80 sounds great with the Katana.
Thanks for the info! Cheers :)
Wow. Thank you very much, this was the best preset I found for the music I play.
Thanks :)
hello, I made the same set up and it even close to your sound, then I downloaded your patch and the same , on the video sounds much better more agressive with more gain I dont know what but it is different and I want exactly this sound ;(
Hey mate, contact me here so I can further help you: jucaneryguitar.com/contact/
Hey Yuca what's up brother! man Im having the hardest time trying to dial in my Katana , I plugged into Tone Central and there is not much to chose from, maybe I just dont know what Im doing (most likely), is there a way to get more patches or effects besides those ones in tone central, it only shows like 6 different artists with a set set of patches, Any help anyone ?? Thanks!!
Hi there, have you checked my website yet? Let me know. Cheers
I did exactly what you did but my tone doesnt sound like yours, not even close :( . Do you know why?
Contact me here for more details: jucaneryguitar.com/contact/ Cheers
I was struggling with the EQ's trying to get a good high gain tone, muito obrigado for this great tutorial and the free patches 👍 Subscribed 👍
Awesome! Thanks :)
this is "robaxl"..my secondary UA-cam account is this one Axl Despaw ..I just subbed and liked your video..just please pass the word around about using a phone for your Katana amp connection because it's still fairly new and not known by many Katana owners that their amps are phone compatible..the more people that use these apps and phone connections will result in even better apps and more possibilities..its so much easier using my phone and adjusting all the settings and you actually get better equalizer options and more selections than the PC Boss Tone Studio
Axl Despaw what’s the app called on App Store for iPhone I don’t see it
@@mattwood5493 it should be under Katana Librarian..I will look into some more right now
@@mattwood5493 ok I just found one for iPhone it's called Katana-Air..let me know if you found it..I also found Gurbz TouchOSC Editor ..you may have to download the app on your PC or Mac and then export to your iPhone but either one should work...good luck bro
Axl Despaw thanks buddy but when I downloaded how to I hook you my phone katana doesn’t seem to be class compliant usb so it’s not recognizing on iPhone
What is the app for Android?
Hey Juca..When i go into edit;...it doesnt ever give me the "write" options....only !clear"? what am i doing wrong?
I have a mk1 katana 50
Love this. Could you offer some more free metal patches for the katana in future?
Thanks :) Have you downloaded this one? I will have more free stuff soon. Cheers
What sort of boost do you use for an acdc type of tone?
Clean boost. Cheers
@@JucaNeryGuitar thanks man. I havent experimented with the clean boost yet. Ill try it out.😊
as soon as I start taking out high on the eq before the amp it gets super weak and dark.
*Attention Boss Katana MK1 and MKII owners*
Life just got a shit load easier when it comes to hooking your amp up to the internet..you can now use your Android or iPhone to access all the options and more and you don't have to lug your amp to a PC or lug a laptop around..3 simple things are required 1) an android or iPhone old or new versions 2) one OTG ["on the go"] cable and a USB cable 3)a compatible app from the playstore..I use 'Katana Librarian'..and b4 you just pass this info up or call bullshit please look into it because your missing out on extra options that you can only get by using the phone and app connection..trust me..I don't work for playstore nor do I even give a shit about them..you will get this and thank me later..watch and see..your welcome
The only app I see if for the katana air? I looked up katana librarian and got nothing.
@@stephenbarton2625 It comes right up for me (OG Google Pixel).
The app is awesome, but it’s only available for Android.
If only Boss didn't have use the ancient goddamn printer usb port.
I tried this with my Katana mk11 50w and Ibanez Tube Screamer on my Ibanez 7 string, which is currently in Drop B. I run 10-62 which should be good enough guage for a 25.5 scale for Drop B and my tone literally doesn't sound anything close to this lol I go for more of the Drop A deathcore vibes but 62 is too floppy for my liking so I went up to B, the strings still buzz like hell too so im assuming I need a noise gate?
You might just need the guitar setup by yourself or a professional.
@@TheOneAndOnlyKurtNobrain upgraded to an Ibanez iron label 8 string, running EAEADGBE tuning and that actually sounds pretty good.
Hey Luca how are you! I just got my katana MK100 Im looking to load a good overdrive or distortion, what would you recommend? also, I have never plugged it to the computer so I guess all you have to do is jusr plug it in and do the changes on the computer and it will automatically do it on the amp??? any help anybody?? I usually play foo fighters, alices in chains, stone temple pilots, three days grace etc!!
Hi there, all good thanks :) Try first all the distortion / overdrive pedals that the amps brings before buying any pedal. You need to go into Boss website and download the drivers and Boss Tone Studio for your Katana model. Let me know how it goes. Cheers
@@JucaNeryGuitar I will! Thank you boss!!
Hey Juca,
I’m currently waiting for my 2x12 to arrive and glad I found your channel. How do you feel about the Katana in a live gig for modern metal. Does it perform well. I’m asking bc I’m in a prog-metal act and want to have a good tone that blends well in the mix with my other guitar player who uses a Rectifier? Also, did you change out the stock speaker at all?
Hi there, many thanks :) Yes it does, the stock Speaker is enough. You are all set! :) Cheers
Question: why do the high notes sound SO loud but my rythm sounds quiet??? it's kinda annoying lol
That's our perception :)
Why did the new versions remove the ability to put a booster after the amplifier? Is it possible to somehow install the old version where this feature is available?
You can't use the old version with the MKII. Did they removed that? I need to check. Cheers
Thanks dude, always trying to get better patches and tones on my Katana Artist mk 1
Thanks!!! Cheers
@@JucaNeryGuitar Tried following this on my Katana 50 Mk1 and it sounds NOTHING like this. Is the Mk2 really that different?
@@AndrewKachaniwsky Is different only on the number of effects. The core tone is basically the same.
Hell yeah, thanks man! I was struggling with tone on this too...now I am killin it!
Awesome 👏 Thanks 🙏🏻
I don't believe this is currently working with the boss katana 50 it says "Import Failed"!
That's normal because this patch is for the MKII. Cheers
@@JucaNeryGuitar Silly me
I always appreciate your contents...this one is no exception..very well illustrated..one thing I want to know, can you dial in modern metal tone on any guitar having 70s or 80s vintage medium output humbuckers?
Many thanks :) Yes you can! :)
Medium output pickups are actually better than high output because there's more headroom. If you need more output you just add more gain at the beginning of the chain. Medium output gives you the versatility to get great clean tones as well. EQ and overdrive/boost at the beginning of your chain is a great way to start.
What a great video! Is it possible with noiseless single coils at all?
Yes I believe so. Thanks 🙏🏻
STANDART TUNING?
Yes :)
Thank you, dude! My Katana sounds awesome now!
Great :)
i tried this an i got a really muffled tone -_-
What’s the guitar and pickups?
@@JucaNeryGuitar schecter sls c1 elite. Fishman fluence pickups. Also i just reinstalled boss katana studio cuz it malfunctioned yesterday. Maybe something is still going wrong idk 🤷🏿♂️
@@jeffreyquinonez8964 Weird... I have my Epiphone Explorer with Fishman Fluence and come to think, it might need a different approach. Maybe I'll do a video for it soon. But should sound heavy.
@@JucaNeryGuitar ok cool 👍 ill try reinstalling again too ill see how it turns out
Hi Juca, I finally found something that will steer me in the right direction for dialing the Katana, however, I'm not sure what the variation mode does. I have a Katana 50 which, from my knowledge, has no variation mode which sounds way better than without the mode. What does variation mode do and how I can change the settings to make the same sound as if I had the mode enabled? Thanks and awesome video, it was very informative.
I think it means he has a Mk2 Katana, and the variation button switches between the Mk1 and Mk2
Are you Brazilian bro?
Português :)
@@JucaNeryGuitar teu trabalho é ótimo. Comprei minha katana hoje... esperando chegar. Abraço
@@DimiiRoXObrigado! Abraço :)
Don't have the mkii so I had to follow you step by step to have a similar sound on my mki and... It's sounds great! Best tone I've ever had on my amp!
I was wondering what you would suggest to have most similar sound on the mki since there's no "variation" option?
Thanks :) Hard to get without the variation mode because it really changes the tone and it interacts very differently with the different amps. In this case it adds more brightness and definition, but I cannot say that that equals to treble or presence. Cheers
Sounds similar to Gary Holt's Exodus tone. Awesome!
Thanks :)
Amazing how you get the sounds on the Katana amp. And....the aftersales after buying one of your bundles is impressive. Thank you for all your help and advice Juca. You are a hero!
Lol,that's a killer tone man,killer.thanks
Thanks man :) Cheers
Such a valuable insight, it has allowed me to setup a liveset of my most used tones now all eq'd using your techniques. Thankyou
Thanks :)
Thanks Juca! I'm finally able to get the tone I was looking for by downloading your patch and doing a few tweaks. You've gained another subscriber!
Many thanks :) Cheers!!!
Very nice video 👍..thanks..!
Thanks man :)
Fala mano, o meu chega semana q vem... esses presets que vc monta podem ser salvos no amp depois microfonados?
Sim claro :) Abraço
Nice video, man!!! Thanks.
Thanks :) Cheers man
thanks man, great work
Thanks :)
This is awesome friend
Thanks 🙏
Very nice tone. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers :)
How can we download this patch?
It's in the video description. Cheers
Merci pour le partage, super son 👍
Thanks :)
How come your tone is automatically super gainy whereas mine isnt when on brown with a tubescreamer?
That's weird...
@@JucaNeryGuitar ah dont worry man, my mistake i had my tubescreamer effect level low
@@maxjudge020 lol! Great man :) Cheers
is the patch mkii only?
The patch yes. But the tone tutorial applies to the MKI as well. Cheers
awesome video! your eq videos are a god send, i was giving up hope on my katana until i found your channel. thank you! i have an idea for another video, im looking for an eerie clean tone.. like a dreary opeth kind of clean sound. something to really make those haunting chords terrifying
Many thanks!!! Great idea :) Going to check that clean tone!!! Cheers :)
I was in the same boat about ready to set all my equipment on fire. This dude rocks!
This was very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome :) Cheers
Fabulous lesson! thanks
Thanks Rob :)
What are your actual settings set at on your amp?
They are exactly what you see in the video. Cheers
Sounds great! Thanks.
Thanks :)
thats a mix ready tone ! thanx !
It is :) Thanks
Great video! Help me a lot!
Glad to hear that! Cheers
Sounds epic
Thanks :)
great !!!
Thanks man :) Cheers
Nice work!
Thanks :)
@@JucaNeryGuitar I want to buy 50 mk2 for usb recording. Do you reccomend usb recording or use dynamic microphone? I just want to get kind a peavey 6505 sound from brown channel I guess sound is very similar.
Better a microphone. But via usb and if you process the tone on your daw after recording you can get great tones.
Have you tried floorboard fx it's custom software for the boss katanga mk1 & 2 that gives you a lot more options to play with
