This overdrive has not left my board for nearly a decade. I thought I’d make a short video about it.
these are the backing tracks I have used in my post, please consider buying them to support this website, as I make them! find them in the shop page (They are all available in the Donation bundle, as well as individually in sets): https://giannichiarello.com/shop/
In this video I show how to setup a system where you can have a line with a cab IR that goes to your in ears and a line that goes to your amp running at the same time with the new line 6 hx fx. I find microphones quite unreliable in a live setting (they move throughout the set, out of phase if more than one…etc…) and IR’s are getting quite close to the mic’d up sound.
In this Vlog post I play Alone together, a known jazz standard and talk a bit about the DVMARK Little Jazz…this amp is very handy for the gigging guitarist, regardless of style, if you live in a city it is a life saver! 40w, plenty loud, warm sound, reverb, DI output, external speaker out and many more options…
In one of my recent videos about silent recording I mentioned I was using my own custom made impulse responses …I decided to make them available to the public as I use them a lot as a preset to record and find them really useful and inspiring to use.
This is the video with some samples:
These 4 custom IR’s aren’t just a straight profiling of a speaker, but a mix of plugins/eq’s as well so I have named them in connection with what I use them for, rather than the speaker used in the IR.

Enjoy!
I don’t do very often pedal demos, but I used this lesser known pedal for quite a while now and I found it to be a very good addition to my board. It’s basically to tube screamers with some modifications,, but the most useful feature is the 3 mode switching…you can stack the two sides, or alternate, even momentarily. 2 bass modes and extra gain on the lead channel make this pedal very versatile. Highly recommended!
