I'm just looking through the free amp downloads and I'm delighted to see someone has put up a Katana MkII

There are some weird ones.

I've seen a capture of a blackstar ht5 too. when I had one I really liked it but in the land of profiling where I can have any amp I wqnt its not top of the list.

Progress has been made - I've managed to swap patches using ToneNet and adjust reverb and it all seems fairly straightforward so far - the big one is going to be can I find a patch where I really like the sound of the demo and get it to sound close to that coming out of my Katana - if that's possible then I reckon that should keep me happy for quite a while

Go straight into the FX loop on the Katana?

Is the Katana speaker a "standard" guitar amp speaker like a V30, or is it closer to an FRFR speaker where the the IR needs speaker and cab modelling as well?

When I use my Boss GT1000 through my amp's FX return, I split the signal and turn off any cab and mic modelling and just use the GT1000's preamp simulations. That way I can get a live sound with real speakers on stage and can run an XLR to the FoH with the GT1000's cab simulation.

No FX loop on the 50w combos - I'm running through the clean channel with no gain so it should be simple enough.

I have managed to move patches from ToneNet to the Tonex, and written down the steps until I get used to it, which is a start - I might buy some once I've exhausted the free stuff, but to be honest I don't need that much variety so it'll just be because I want to spend money on something

I've sorted out six patches to get me started (Vox, Fender and a Dumble) and added a Beebo (after the Tonex as putting it first introduces hiss) and that should keep me happy for a while. The Beebo is there partly because there's no tuner in the Tonex yet.

Really pleased with it, I have no idea how close to the real thing it is and don't particularly care, it makes very nice sounds and that's always good enough for me.

How are people combining tonex with fx when there is no loop.... delays, modulation, reverb etc

I use mine in the fx loop of an hx fx and it works fine I have compressor and drives before it, modulation and delay after.

There are loads of videos on YouTube explaining why you don't need a loop which can explain it far better than I can.

Simple explanation is you don't need a loop it's fine to put fx after it

I have mine in the loop of a GT1000 Core. The GT also controls the patches in the Tonex via MIDI. Works perfectly.

I’ve just purchased the official Mesa pack that has just been released. You get a maximum of 30% discount if you use Jam points so it works out around £60ish.

It’s very impressive. All of the amps sound really good. I especially like the Mark IIC+ captures.
