Hello folks, I have just bought the Marshall Code 100 which I was really excited about having read the description and watched the demo videos. The amp does sound amazing, but yesterday, on the first occasion that I actually tried the amp during a rehearsal, I was shocked to discover that when I step on the provided footswitch to change presets (like activating one with distortion or heavy delay), mid-song, the flow of the sound broke, there was a moment of silence before it switched to the next preset. I've been trying to research this on the Internet, but have only found 2 instances of it being addressed, no one talks about this in review videos or blogs. This baffles me - how is (mostly) everyone ok with this?

This effectively makes it impossible to use the built-in effects of the amp, which is exactly what its main outstanding feature is. Why have 100 presets when you can't switch mid-song? Are guitarists only supposed to use the Code family to select the main sound they want for a certain song, then keep using pedals for changes mid-song?

I'm extremely disappointed since the built-in effects were the main reason I went for this amp - I wanted to use this as both an amp and a multi-effect board to some extent. Is there any fix for this? A firmware update may be, or does the separately-sold Code pedal make a difference? 

Seriously considering returning it at this point. Advance thanks for the replies. 

So I have had a new CODE25 for about four months, and two weeks ago it suddently started to go silent after playing a few minutes. No sound at all, very suddenly. Lights all still on, screen on (though maybe dimmed), and it won't recover until I power it down and restart--and then it may or may not play for a few minutes more after that. Didn't seem like an overheating issue (I rarely play that loud, and at the time I was using a sweet clean preset).

I've updated the firmware and still have the problem. I'm in Hawaii, and I'm not sure there's a Marshall warranty place here to do any work on it. Am I stuck returning it? Is this a common problem?

I absolutely love this thing, I'd hate to have to abandon it for poor dependability reasons.

Hello All,

I´m beginner in guitar playing, can somewho help me find aro create The Darkness preset for my Code 25?

When I change the preset, the volume increases very much each time, only when I move the knob, the volume on the amplifier returns to the previously set level. The problem also occurs during changes to the foodswitch....

I have several custom presets in my Gateway (via my PC at my.marshall.com). I synchronized my PC with the Gateway App on my Android phone and all the new presets show up (so far, so good). The problem is that when I turn on the Code 100 amp, all of my presets (in the Gateway Library on my phone) get reset to the default presets.

If I turn off the amp and re-sync, all of my custom presets show up again. When I turn on the amp, they all get reset to default values.

I updated the firmware on my CODE 100 and tried several different startup configurations, but nothing works.

Why is the amp overwriting the presets on my Gateway App?

I turned on bluetooth on my  phone then initiated the bluetooth feature on my code100. find the amp in the It found the amp on my phone so I connected to it and the blue light on the amp quit flashing indicating that they are synced together. When I open the gateway app on my android phone (samsung S20E) it will not find the amp in the menu section of the app. I see the blue tooth symbol there with the word CODE next to it and it says not connected. There is nothing next to the Amps Detected: and when I scan for an amp it turns gray for a few seconds and then back to green. Same thing when i switch between the phone and amp icon in the bottom left corner. when on the phone icon i have presets when I switch to the amp Icon I get nothing displayed. I do have audio .from phone to amp and that s what it says in the blue tooth section in my phone. It says that the code V020150FDU connected for audio

Is it possible to download a preset from Marshall and put it on another amp like Blackstar?

Hi there,

does anybody have a good idea how to get "THE" George-Lynch-sound (esp. the sound of the Dokken- or early Lynch-Mob-era) with a CODE 100C (or has even a preset programmed already)?

Same question for a good "keyboard"- or "synthesizer"-sound.

Any suggestions appreciated!

Thx, Mark

This issue is driving me crazy. My Code 50 used to work with my iphone and ipad, now it refuses to connect and I always get the above message.

I have performed the following:

1. Forgot bluetooth connection on both devices

2. Deleted iphone app and re-installed.

3. Re-paired and tried to connect with same issues,

4. Formed factor preset of amp with no luck.

I know the blueotth connects as I can play music through my amp from phone, I just cannot connect to update any presets.

Any solutions would be greatfully received, am getting so frustrated with this product.

Hey, I've been having issues with my Code 50 amp suddenly. When I plug in my guitar I can't play any sound, yet it works in another amp so my guitar and leads are fine. I've updated my software and the amp still doesnt work, so I think I'm gonna have to resort to a Factory Reset. Just wondering if there is a way to save my presets before I do a factory reset?

Anybody who has made a good preset for Playing Jeff Buckleys halelujah?

hola, acabo de instalar el firmware actualizado a mi marshall code 100 combo y ahora no suena ningún preset..

Hi, is there preset that quasi simulate sound of Sunn O))) ? Or how make that sound?

Que tal' soy nuevo en el uso del ampli y según veo tiene detalles interesantes como el almacenamiento de presets en el movil, pero aún tengo unas dudas.

Hello, I would like to replay "I Surrender - Hillsong (Worship)", however I cannot find a suitable preset for it. Could someone help me and set up such a preset? 

Thanks a lot, Tim

     hi there , 

    Is anyone else having the same issues downloading user presets from Marshall.com ? I have a code 25 and ive already installed the updated firmware , however im still having issues downloading the presents when i'm connected to my computer.

Before I start playing with the amp, are the user created presets stored separately from the inbuilt ones? I've read through the manual and got the impression that if I save one that I have created then it will overwrite the last one I was using?

How does a downloaded preset from this site get into your library on the code 50 itself. There are no directions. I have it in the library on this site and have exchanged it with preset numer48, but it doesn't appear on my code.
