<h1>Music Blog?!</h1>
<p>I wanted to make a little blog section to just talk about my music
making. Mainly, to save my friends from enduring my thinking out
loud.</p>
<h2>Reworking my THR100HD</h2>
<p>I have a <a href=
"https://usa.yamaha.com/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/amps_accessories/thr100hd/index.html"
rel="external noopener noreferrer"
target="_blank">Yamaha THR100H Dual</a> which is a nice modeling amp
with two "amps". Typically, I run these in parallel so I am
running through BOTH at the same time. As of late I am actually
considering moving to dialing in separate tones, and using my <a href=
"https://www.joyoaudio.com/product/88.html"
rel="external noopener noexternal"
target="_blank">Joyo PXL-Live</a> to act as a "channel"
switcher.</p>
<h3>Dual Amping</h3>
<p>Honestly, dual amping is my <em>favorite</em> thing. And I would hate
to give it up, as it gives my tones SO much depth. But I find when I try
to mix my guitars that extra depth just makes mixing a bit more of a
hassle than need be. But Mick of "That Pedal Show" on YouTube I
feel feels similarly, considering in <a href=
"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMvhraRDvDs"
rel="noopener external noreferrer"
target="_blank">one of their "use less" challenge videos</a>
he used two amps for maximum tone shaping - which I feel adds some
justification to my efforts!</p>
<h2>Results after one night</h2>
<p>I spent an hour or so tonight messing around with my setup and came
out with the following high gain tone:</p>

<h3>Thoughts</h3>
<p>I feel its a bit... boomy still. There is some extra weight coming
from the "clean" channel that I think is causing this to lose
some clarity. I don't think if I wanted to add a mix around this
I'd even end up keeping it. Or I would do some heavy EQing to that
channel. Here is what I have dialed in so far:</p>

"A photo of the front face knobs of my Yamaha THR100HD. The top amp is set to the clean setting, the booster is turned off. The gain is roughly at 3 O'Clock, Master at 9 O'Clock, Bass at 10 O'Clock, Middle at 2 O'Clock, Presense off, Rever off, and Volume at 11 O'Clock. The bottom amp is set to Modern, with the booster turned off. The gain is set to around 2:30, Master at 10 O'Clock, Bass at a bit below 9 O'Clock, Middle at 2 O'Clock, Treble at 1 O'Clock, Presents at 1:30, Rever off, and Volume a little above 9 O'Clock"

<h2>Future</h2>
<p>In the future I plan to setup different profiles between each the 5
channels per amp - so they're all useable and I can just do single
amping - as that provides me the FX loop until I setup a proper stereo
board. But until then - this is the setup I've been using and I
rarely touch the back!</p>
