did they make the Mark III? I am assuming Mesa thought the Mark III was an improvement but once they realized that the Mark IIC+ was still considered better how come they didn't change the Mark III's voicing? I mean you would just assume that if the MarkIIC+ lead channel was the best than that...

yes you can use midi prgram changes and CC chnages but there is some limitations. I think the CC mapping is fixed and you have to do tap tempo via a momentary footpedal that is plugging into the pedal in jack. You can set up for delay spillover also. but The G Major can do simialr type delays...

The rectos wouldnt need a graphic EQ since there tone controls are post gain Mark amps/Dumble type amps tone stack work before the drive Most other amps and rectifiers have tone stacks after drive

Hey guys, if I am not planning to use phantom power from the triaxis can i then use a 5 pin midi cable in the 7 pin midi input of triaxis? My midi Hook up will be like this, Ground control pro(which is 5 pin) into voodoo labs GCX(also 5 pin) from trhu into G major and then thru ino Triaxis...

But will just using any old 6l6 tubes and not worrying abut the draw harm the amp? I know for best performance I should but will it harm the amp if I dont. I have a soldano slo100 and Bill Sundt told me that the slo100 are bias cold that I dont have to worry about biasing the amp when...

Cool, thats probably it!!! I will go and look for it tonight when I get home. Gosh, and hear I am thinking to myself, This is a weird deisgn they would do it this way. Thanks for the help

I have a two prong type on the back of my chassis where I plug the fan into. But the plug always is on when the amp its self is plugged in. Turning the amp off doesnt shut down power to the 2 prong ac on the back of my amp, so if I want to turn of fan I have to unplug it

Ok, this wasnt like this when I breiefly had a Mark iv, but on my Mark 3 it apears that the power outlet (on back of amp)always has power even when amp is turned off so if the fan is plugged it will be running, so I always have to take the extra step of un plugging the amp. On the mark IV the...

Ok accordign to the manuals, no boogie amp has to be rebias as they indicated that they have biased it perfectly already for you and then locked in place so it wouldnt ever drift. However they then stress that you HAVE to use Mesa Boogie power tubes all the time, Now is the above statement...

I wasnt even thinking about selling the old speaker but I could, it is older and doesnt have the current type of speaker hook ups on it. I mean it has the lettes EV written on the dust cap of the speaker so I am asuming its the original one that came with the amp. I got the amp at an estate...

Not really trying for a metal tone, but more of close as I can to black face cleans and then a John petrucci Train of thought type of tone

Yea but here it the kicker mine is the 2 6l6 purble stripe with no graphic eq so I am screw there. I dont even use rhythm 2, just r1 for clean and the lead channel. I just find having bass on 5 sounds flubby on the lead channel but when bass is at 1 or 0 and the bass shift and deep are pulled...

I have a combo, the trick is trying to get the clean channel to sound good at the same time as the lead channel. The clean channel likes the deep and bass shift pulled out if I am going to have the bass that low Mids add more body. I have tried everything pushed in and the clean sounds good...

I went and did the swamp thang to help introduce a smoother low end and lower mids to balaqnce out the trebly nature of the Mark iii, Plus I keep the bass on zero so the swamp thang will help add bass in a more pleasing way then the bass knob actually does

Actually by bass is at 0, but the bas sknow is pulled at the deep know is pulled. Have prese down at 3 and treble at 5 and mids at 8, so I get bass. I went a head and ordered a swamp thang
