loki, I'm glad I could help you and I am Thankful that I caught you b4 anything bad happened. I sure as hell don't wanna see anyone have to go thru what I went thru. As far as the 4 preset bank mode. I've never tried it so I do not want to give you any wrong info. I just use the stock...

loki if it helps any let me elaborate on this: "Ground Control Presets"-bottom four of GC Pro "will activate combinations of loops at once"- this means whatever channel of the DR you program and whatever other effects you may have in any other loops, never another DR channel loop Just...

loki, be EXTREMELY careful when doing this. My DR went down with a burnt circiut board in December of last year. I just got it back about a month ago! It was caused by the GC Pro and the GCX. I had mine set up very similar to what you are describing, GCX 5-8, Chan's 1-3 and FX loop respectively...

Shredd, right on Man! :!: Oh by the way Mesa shipped my amp out last thursday with new PT's and rec tubes and of course the new circuit board. Gonna take your word for the eventual pre retube.

jdurso, agreed! Wouldn't have it any other way. If Mesa ever did this I would hope that they would put a comprehensive MIDI control set in. When you figure a CFX4 goes for around 160 plus the Dual Rec (just an example) cable another 50, the GCX cost me 399 and the RJM16 is what 699? I really...

I really don't want to turn this thread into a Mesa vrs. Marshall thread because I enjoy what both amps have to offer. So I will defend my desire to incorporate MIDI into the next gen of Mesa. Firstly I will agree that Splawn Amps must make a great product, although I can only go by reviews of...

By stating this you are essentially reinforcing what many desire, including myself. Why? This should be the next question. Why do so many third party developers create MIDI solutions for amp manufacturers? Because people desire this convenience. Marshall understood this and henceforth the 6100...

All this talk of evolution and so forth....of course it's all good! What I would like to see incorporated into the next gen of Boogie amps, be it the Mark V or even a new Rec model, is MIDI capable switching. I've bought two amps with this capability in mind. A Marshall 6100 LM and my current...

Yeah got ya..Thanks Shredd. I did find some NOS Tesla's on Ebay. But you're right all I found was in pairs and fairly expensive. Although not near as expensive as the 10M Mullards or the long plate Mullards. Cheaper than most Tele smooth plates too. I've been waiting what seems like forever to...

prsman, where'd you get those NOS Teslas from? If they were NOS. I believe the old Tesla's were actually called E83cc's. Same type tube just diff name types. If I can recall, I bought a Marshall 3203 Artist hybrid in around 1989-90 and I could swear up and down that that amp had Tesla's in it...

+1 on the Mogami ++1 on the Planet Waves I can tell you this much from my own experience. I have two Monster Rock 21' cables downstairs and I have four Planet Waves 21' foot cables downstairs. The difference in sound is not night and day like some claim, yes you may have to readjust your amp...

That explains the MMOT red end bells. Now if only I could order a green Power Tranny! HA! In December I may even apply for an internship at Santa's Workshop! :lol: I'm looking forward to it. I emailed Jerry at FJA mods and asked if he would do this work for me cause I am a bit interested in the...

Shredd, Ended up shipping my amp back to Mesa to get that burnt spot on the circuit board repaired. They may end up replacing the whole board and the tubes. I was running an integrated quad of 34's and 6L6's-all JJ's. Also all high gain JJ AX7's. I have here the new Mercury Mag Tranny and choke...

Awesome Shredd! Dude you're right on. I had the Mullard 12Ax7 next on the agenda for V2. Expensive though. 129 I think at Tube depot. I was thinking what you suggested a long plate for V3. It's at this point that I need to attempt to open the amp up a bit and try to keep it aggressive. I may shy...

Shredd, you seem to be quite knowledgeable concerning the pre tubes and it was upon reading your posts that I purchased an NOS RFT to start with. It's labeled "Tesla". I have a 2002 Dual Rec 3 channel and it went down about six months ago. Burned spot on the main circuit board. I bought a...
