This is by far the best and clearest tutorial I have seen for this amp. Thanks!! You are a very good teacher!

[@Toehider]

Awesome tutorial. Marshall really should write it somewhere in the manual that the cab sim should be switched off whilst playing through a speaker cabinet.

[@michaelbell75]

Seriously. Listen to how much better it sounds after he turns off cab and amp on the JTM45 setting. Something that simple will make you go from thinking its a crap sounding amp to thinking its a pretty good one if you just sat down to play one and didn't know that. Most of the presets are not good. Once you go in and shape your own sound and get it going thru a quality cab, its a steal for $349.

[@lubstorfk]

The manual for the Code 100H is seriously lacking in several areas. I'm thankful for people like this who post videos on how to use.

[@averagejoe8213]

I have the CODE 50, it's obviously exactly the same, just the 50W version. This is a VERY helpful video, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

[@michaelgarcia2050]

Step 1: Turn the cab sim off if playing through a speaker. Step 2: The presets are terrible: pick one and overwrite it. Choose a preamp, and a power amp. Add reverb. Congratulations - the Code now sounds awesome and you can add additional effects if desired.

[@guitagious9464]

Actually, leave the CAB simulator "On" if you are using the matching CODE 4 x 12 Cabinet. Its speakers are designed to compliment and bring out the nuances of the different simulated Cab models in the CODE amp head. If you are using a different brand cabinet, then yes, switching CAB to "Off" will probably better preserve the characteristics of that particular cabinet.

[@joseben2285]

Is this also true for the 2x12 cab?

[@guitagious9464]

@@joseben2285 I think so, but not 100% sure. I would think so though.

[@matthewk970]

VERY nicely done AND nice playing examples (and NICE playing!) Thank you

[@michaelgarcia2050]

Marshall does not mention this in the literature, but if you use the headphone out or the USB connection, it's disables the effects loop. I thought there was something wrong with my amplifier, but it turns out that is the way this is designed.

[@stimpsonjcat67]

About to buy one. This really is the best tutorial on making changes via the unit. Thanks!

[@xldsyt]

Excellent! Thanks for taking the time.

[@yellowpick4392]

Best Marshall Code tutorial I found, Thanks

BEST TUTORIAL OF THE CODE ON KZbin !!!! ======================================= =======================================

[@kaistudio8229]

i just bought the amp with the cab but i have zero knowledge about it.. thank you for the tips

[@grizz1887]

Finally,an answer to my question if i can do my own presets without a phone or computer. If ur German. Danke😎

[@1hamtiger]

agree

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

Why did you not mention that by using the accompanying downloadable application Marshall Gateway, you can save you presets to your handheld device rather than over writing the settings on the actual amp?

[@alexd718]

I learned something from your video, thank you. COOL

[@michaelloomisiii3475]

Great video! Get to da choppa! 😋.

[@1hamtiger]

I have the Boss Katana 100 - great amp [really amp] . But it would be nice to not have to use the software to fine tune everything- I'm sure I could get some killer sounds from this one ,and know PC to hall around- just do it on the fly

[@kevinroulette]

Thanks help me out , just got amp today . I was lost as instructions suck .

[@qp7to7]

the best review ever...thanks...

[@PeterDad60]

I own both the Code 50 and also a new Code 100 212. Is there anyway to dial out the fizz at low volume for the low notes? I have had some luck by trying different settings and now my low volume sound is mostly fizz free, still if anyone else has a suggestion- I would try it. I'm also thinking since i only had the 212 for 2 day's that the speakers need to be broken. I remember 2 years back my Code 50 had a fizz but now that the speaker is worn in there is no fizz. I think the electronics are so sensitive that they pick up the fizz right from the strings. Of course at higher volumes the fizz is compactly drowned out, so it's only low level late night playing when not wanting to wake the wife. I am a fan of the Marshall guitar amps and like these digital amps a lot, even though I have more Marshall tube amps. I recommend the Code amps for Jazz and blues as well as Rock. They are so adjustable, more than any other amp I have ever owned. -Peter

[@PeterDad60]

(Update) My new Code 100 212 definitely is fizzy sounding compared to my Code 50. There is no way around that fact. Can anyone help? No matter what I do-I hear the FIZZ.

[@1hamtiger]

great tutorial !!!

[@Ibanezadept]

very fine explanation, thx

[@ricardadn]

Moltesbgràcies!!

[@davidmurray9193]

Can this head be used without a cab for silent recording, or does it need the load to go through a cab?

[@PlatinumBlack90038]

At 3:30 I totally disagree ― if you have the CODE 4x12 connected to the CODE100H or are using the built-in speaker in the CODE 50 Combo ― otherwise, an excellent tutorial. Cheers!

[@adrianrudigier7276]

Platinum Black ive got mine since yesterday now. Before i purchased the code 100h i saw this tutorial. I switched off the cab and the power... the speaker sound really thin and crapy without that. Ive got the Code 412 Cab.

[@ryanhans950]

Please tell me what type of usb can I use to connect amp to my PC .... I mean of what type is it??

[@Rdgcan]

Thanks for this tutorial. Cheers 2018

[@anthonydavella8350]

Big help, thanks

[@toodyface]

I'll be back!💪

[@uHateCole]

I’m kinda new to learning about amps and stuff. I keep seeing people talking about cabinets. Do I need to buy one if I want to use this amp? I don’t see why it is needed (unless the amp doesn’t have a speaker)

[@kickfighting1015]

Amp its self is a "head" ,its an amp only. You would have to have a "cabinet" because thats were the speakers are. Marshall makes a "cabinet" for this head. Often sold as a set. Amps that come with speakers built in are called "combo" amps.

[@EduardoOliveira-bi3fw]

Is it possible to put in the Edifier r1700bt?

[@pedrockjesus]

Need a cabinet allways?

[@grey9914]

Where does the sound come from?

[@hodlmaximalist]

Does it have an effect loop ?

[@sahidgil1823]

I just bought one of this, yes it has FX Loop send and return input, just learning how to use it

[@NonApplicable1983]

Is the FX loop before or after the on-board effects?

[@markhurlebaus4296]

Do you recommend turning the cab and power amp buttons off If you have the Marshall code 50 which is a 1x12 amp?

[@jimsimmons2674]

I also have a code 50 and i never turn off the cab and power amp buttons,i tried it and my amp sounded low in volume and very thin sounding! These buttons are not only for listening through headphones there for you to use them and to tweak your code to sound good the way you like it! This is bad advice in my opinion to turn off the cab and power amp buttons,ok i could see maybe turning off the cab sim on the code 100 because a 4x12 will give you a bigger sound but why turn off the power amp models?

[@slashtrio]

@@jimsimmons2674 I just got the code 25 and it sounds terrible if you turn the cab off. Like you said, low in volume and thin.

[@ryanhans950]

Does it has Acoustic Simulator?

[@alecsmallridge9636]

Yes, I use one on both my 50w combo and 100w head and cab for Alice In Chains stuff a lotn

[@darkomilovanovic1130]

Hello everyone, can someone explain to me why I have very low output on my headphones 😔

[@AndyK.23]

Excellent tips! Interesting that you should turn the PWR simulator off as well as the CAB. Are they all just added/changed EQ?

[@AndyK.23]

Really excellent sound when the PWR and CAB simulators are turned off! Way more amp-like. Well done! PS - funny how you say adjust the reverb by pressing the REV button - it should be pronounced REEV - as in reverb!

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

You need to appreciate that English is not this guys first language dude.

[@AndyK.23]

Chris Davies Just a friendly tip on correct pronunciation!

[@KFGatica]

I disagree and would say Rev as well. Not a language thing IMO.

I have four Matshalls..1982 JCM800..1996 JCM900..2006 MG 100HDFX..2009 MG 100FX 2×12..simply brilliant Amps but i will pass on these Code Amps

[@randychimp4298]

A closer frame around the gold control panel would have give the visitor a better view of the controls rather than the meaningless surrounding black space. Excellent work otherwise, thank you
