    I have a code 50 as well and honestly thing it sounds good as long as you leave the cab modeling off

      Everything goes wrong when you try to make a speaker sound like something it isn't.
      You can't magically turn an V30 into a Greenback, it just doesn't work like that.
      It works with normal sims with IR's because the speakers you have at studio or gigs are Full Range.
      It is imo stupid on a next level, when will the madness stop?
      Line 6 and the spider series never learned from it, in fact they just made it worse when they introduced a tweeter into the whole clusterfuck.

    Well Done ! Code amps got a bad rep in the past. But since the new updates , I think they are fun.The App is GREAT.
    I do wish the Compressor was a separate pedal choice.Compressors are vital to modelling.

      @BkBk-gy6vr Рік тому

      @Bronco2Cj No issues, I sold it because to me it doesn't sound good. The Eq doesn't help much, and the volume and master are either a little sensative or not sesative enough when trying to get the volume you want. Delay and reverb are poor. I think a cheaper Yamaha Thr would be better.

    Is this basically the Marshall equivalent of the Fender Mustang GT100 and GT200? I like modeling amps, and I have a GT200 at home that I love, and I just found one of these Code 50's for $150 and am considering grabbing it for shits and giggles. How would these compare?

    Is this thing worth getting as a bedroom amp? I'm debating something like this or a straight forward amp, like an orange crush 1x10 combo which because of black Friday sales the Marshall is 200 bucks! I don't wanna pass up a good thing if it is worth it ;)

      I fought with liking my 50 watt for 4 years. Finally I now just run a couple of simple amp models like the plexi and jtm with and a good overdrive and equalizer separate pedals and it sounds great in the bedroom. Need to adjust everything to your liking presets suck. And turn the amp volume down to .5 not just the master volume

      If you want classic Marshall tones, the Code will obviously get you way closer than the Katana ever will without extensive tweaking and EQing. If you want more modern tones, get the Katana.

      If you want an honest review go look at Elmo Karjaleinen's, and listen to what experienced players say. UA-cam reviews pretty much tell you nothing because they're all biased and or sponsored. Karjaleinen is a gem in the sense that he is the exception here
