    They were in the Leppard racks until we switched to the AxeFx 3 in early 2018. Phil’s signal chain was JMP into AxeFx 2 direct to FOH. Phil’s were stock, Viv’s were modded by Trace at Voodoo. Great units!

      So random that I found this 2 year old comment…I saw Leppard in ATL earlier this week, and they sounded killer! I was curious about their gear since the guitar tones were incredible. I found an old rig down with JMP-1/AxeII combo, then remembered Mike did this video, and here we are!
      I hope you are still touring with them-great show!
      Edit: I would love to know more about their AxeIII presets, if you are able to share. Cheers!

    I have had a JMP-1 on and off since they first came out. I think a lot of guys had them modded because they didn't know some of the secrets or how to use them correctly. Here are a few that I have realized over the years, BTW I always got complements on my tone when using one. Still have one and is still my go to for anything live.
    1) Set the Output volume knob to only around 2-4, 8 Am to 10 AM.
    2) Use the internal digitally controlled CH volumes to adjust the overall volume of the preamp and the Output for just minor volume tweaks.
    3) Higher Ch volumes and lower gain settings work better.
    4) OD2 and the bass shift are pretty much useless stick to OD1 for gain tones.
    5) Although not a true fully tube preamp, the two tubes in the preamp do make a difference in tone. One tube does the clean CHs and the other the OD CHs. Experiment with different tubes for the best tone. I like a Mullard for the cleans and a JJ for the gain.
    6) The power amp you use with the JMP-1 makes a BIG difference- I highly recommend a Marshall with EL34s. For more vintage tone use a 1987X, for more modern tones use a DSL.
    7) Don't think this is a high gain preamp, clean to moderate gain levels is what this thing does the best.
    7) One of the biggest secrets: Follow the JMP-1 with a BBE Sonic Maximizer with it's knobs set at about 1 O'clock. The BBE will pull down some of the honky mids and make this preamp a monster.

      By the way - OD1 and a Tube Screamer sometimes can be fun too.

      some good stuff except for the JJ tube, they suck in most amps, this one is no different, mullards are smoother no doubt but NOS Chinese tubes are what makes these pre amps sing and the Rocktron exciter/imager is a must.

      @ChrisBlackTV 3 роки тому +1

      I have a JMP-1 as well. I actually like the OD2 channel quite a lot. You can get some awesome sounds out of it, but only if you set it up right.
      It has way more gain than it should, so do not set it to more than 15. Otherwise it will sound like a wooly mammoth charging at you.
      Scoop out the mids (the sweet spot seems to be somewhere around 0 to 2), crank up the presence, and don't go overboard with treble. Also, I do not recommend using bass shift with OD2, it just doesn't sound right.

    That, the marshall 2x50 Watt power amp, a PCM70, and a 2x12 cab was my rig for all three years I spent touring with Kitaro (‘94-97). The whole “An Enchanted Evening” album and video were done with it. We got a Grammy nomination so I figure I got my money’s worth. Thanks for demo-ing it!

      Leon Todd I’d have to hear it again to tell you. It was never amazing. That’s the rig that couldn’t compete next to my singer’s hot rod deville and how I wound up being “a plexi guy”. It was part of a journey. It worked great on that gig. The cab was inside a tympani drum case, running stereo, with Sennheiser 421’s. We were on in ears - in ‘94!.

    That "honk" in the mids is the signature, and it is wonderful! That preamp was a goosed up digital version of the JMP head. That's why if you go: [ OD1 / Gain-15 / Bass-6 / Mid-2 / Hi-0 / Pres-2 ], you get "Back In Black-era" Angus Young. That mid-range honk is part of the original JMP SLP sound. The clean channel as well. While OD2 gets into more Lee Jackson/Jose Arrendondo-modded 2203 territory in regards to gain and low end. I've had a few of these in the studio over the years. They always sound spectacular. They are super hard to find though. If you ask certain folks at Marshall, they'll tell you Big Billy Gibbons bought them all from the warehouse when Marshall took them off the retail market. That could be urban legend though.

    I used to tour with a JMP 1 and a Triaxis. I got pretty experimental with them, but eventually just used them one at time and would switch depending on my mood at the gig. The trick with the JMP is that it REALLY needs something like a tube screamer in front of it if you're going to use OD2 channels. Also, I found that the voicings of the 2:90 power amp really complimented the JMP nicely as well.

    @JulianMerghart 3 роки тому +1

    A lot of rookies are just finding out about rack preamps. While they do have their place - things can start to get very expensive. I am convinced that feedback (the magic electrical interference that defines rock and roll) can be compromised when the preamp and power amp live in separate spaces. Of course, it still happens, but a Marshall head has one specific place where everything comes together and I can appreciate that. I am one the fence with preamps and I have a bunch of them. For touring? Always a good thing. For direct recording they pretty much rule too. But I feel like people are trying to increase the value of their preamps with this new preamp UA-cam revolution.

  • @stankowalski4574

    I remember reading somewhere that the JMP-1 was basically analog solid state distortion, and that the tubes were included simply for marketing purposes. Don't know how accurate that is, but this JMP-1 sounds really good. Wish Marshall would re-issue this or even an updated version. Good tones.

I suggest you get one if you can. I plan on getting mine modded by the folks over at Voodoo... as soon as I have a spare grand (sigh). I love mine though and the tone is still killer for being almost 30 years old.

    I bought a JMP-1 new and used it for around 2 decades with a Marshall Dual Mono block 9200 power amp in the rack. The 9200 has 5881 power tubes. I always hoped for newer versions of the JMP-1 (Maybe a JMP-2?) because I wanted a little more gain out of it, but at loud gigs when the 9200 was bringing things up to a respectable volume the whole rig just fattened up nicely.

Lesson learned!! Keep your stuff!!

I'd love to grab another one and see how it sounds direct put it through a modern IR power amp/cab plugin.

      That is what I thought as well but I never got these signature NIN guitar tones from my JMP1 in direct mode. I mean it gets you sorta there but in the way that any distortion/fuzz recorded directly will get you there. He recorded a lot direct via the JMP and also his Zoom 9030 but those very nasty signature guitar sounds (Mr Selfdestruct, Heresy, I don't want this, Eraser, No you don't) are all guitar recordings f*cked up with Metasynth. I think the JMP1 is probably most used "raw" on the Broken EP. And for more conventional distorted guitar rhythms/leads on Downward Spiral.

    Back in the day I had a 9001 pre amp. Earlier than this one from what I remember. I don't think they were late getting into rack amps. Just late to really dive into it.
    I had a matching power amp too. 9002 maybe??? Been a while. That power amp sounded like a tank Rollin thru the room. Mine had either 6550s or 6l6s, can't remember which but it sounded massive. Pre amp sounded good

    I miss using my ADA Mp1 preamps. I still have them, they really need to be overhauled. I ran mine like a rackmounted overdrive through a Boss NS-2 then sent the output into a Real Tube II preamp for using stereo fx loop then into a Mos Valve for a long time.

    I had this one and its predecessor the 9001. I preferred the 9001. The digitally stepped controls on the JMP-1 didn't allow adequate fine adjustment. You could select a 5 or a 6, for example, but nothing in between. Also, the sound was fizzy. Not the "roaring lion" sound you would get with a boosted JCM 800.

    The problem with the data knobs is people treated them like analog volume pots. Other than just wearing out, some would spray them with contact cleaner.. a BIG no no with those. I have a digitech 2120 that was ruined with that. The data knobs jump around like they're an 8 yr old in the bounce house hyped up on a full chocolate cake.

    Hi Michael
    I fished out a JMP1 which I had in a cupboard unused for probably 15 yrs or more, as I bought a UA OX Stomp and was looking for suitable front end preamps to partner with it. I have enjoyed what I've heard so far, but it's still not my nirvana........
    But, that's not my main reason for posting............ during your demo, I saw a 9000 series Marshall Preamp in your rack....... I used to have one of these, and remember the clean sound as being stellar quality, but sadly, when the JMP1 arrived, I think everyone (me included) thought it was to replace the 9000 unit........at least that's what the rep told me. So I ordered one and before the JMP1 arrived, I sold it. Bad mistake! I was so disappointed with the clean sound of the JMP1 by comparison. It was a completely different beast altogether.......I live and learn. What do you think? I'd be interested to hear this alongside the JMP1.

    Love mine! I recently did built me some sort of 90s Rack just for fun. Jmp-1 combined with Digitech 2120 run by an Engl 840/50. You can get really close to some Mellon Collie & the Infinte Sadness tones imo. Just dont overuse the EQ..i use OD1 for example with Bass 5-6 mids 0 and treble 0 no bass shift. I really like Clean 2 with bass shift or Clean 1 without. Both Clean modes gain around 15-17...so pretty high and still clean. Works best for me.

    Good one, been wondering about this preamp for a while! It's my friend's dream amp and I wanted to hear what's up with it. It was better direct than with The power amp! But it actually does have really good sounds. Just a very poor interface. Marshall should totally rerelease this with like full default front face knobs and then buttons for different amp models like "JTM, Plexi, JCM". It would be a total kickass product. Also Dimebag played everywhere with shorts like yours, I think you can do a gear demo wearing them.

    I use a Triaxis and an ADA MP1 3TM for high gain sounds. I use my JMP-1 for pure "Marshall" tones, OD1 makes a very good impression of a JMP45 or Plexi, which I always use with a DOD250 OD in front and I get the best "Yngwie" tone ever. That is the only way for me to get a very accurate early-era Yngwie tone, which basically is super clean and sounds overdriven rather than distorted, but has enough pick attack and sustain. The mid "honk" is actually quite useful to get this sound.

    I've been using that amp ever since it came out and got no inclination of changing it. I use a H&K 2x50 power stage and a TC electronics G-system. Changing sounds on the G-system also changes sounds on the JMP (via Midi obviously). This means that with one footswitch I can change effects and channel at the same time - and that for 128 channels. The H&K had to change tubes a few times, the Marshall still has the original ones.
