Im getting ready to actually build a new Iso Cabinet box to record guitar tracks with. I have some knowledge/experience building them, but its limited seeing that I have only built one once, and actually dismantled it a couple years ago because i wasn't utilizing it enough. Anyways was just...

Hello out there In music land. Its been a while since i've posted on the boogie board, but i figured it was time to do so. Was wondering if anybody has had any first hand experience with using the New Focusrite Clarett THUNDERBOLT audio interfaces in their home recording studio setups. I...

ya know abe to be perfectly honest i haven't really warmed up to the Big Bad Wah only because it seems not to be really that transparent in my signal chain. I have to play with it a bit more and or troubleshoot my signal chain to see if something else is causing the tone suckage. ya know my...

I am sure many of you guys out there can relate to this. Some people may argue that taking breaks is never in their vocabulary, but sometimes I think it just happens even for accomplished musicians as well as passionate guitar players. people can get caught up in trying to make ends meet or get...

sounds good :mrgreen: my old band use to do some foreigner covers only because the keyboardists father use to be their tour manager - I wish we could have done some journey covers instead - keep rockin

Yeah it is interesting how excess mix settings can drop out volume a little bit. I usually keep little bit of room in db output setting of an effects block to compensate for volume loss obtained by some of my programmed effects that have a lot of effects going on. Then i will later go through...

I found this to work for me as well. It warms the tone up. With regards to warming up the amp, Another thing that i have been doing this last year is running a maxon 0d9 pro plus in front the amp especially in the "dirty channel". I set the pedal to boost mode and turn the drive way up on the...

If mesa Decided to send these preamp tube replacements to me after I put in their ordering comment box that they were going to be used in slots V3 an V4 then I guess I will just ASSUME that they are alright to use then.

Recently ordered some new preamp tubes for my ACe HEad. Wanted to switch out My Cathode following preamp tubes (for I have been encountering subtle volume fluctuations out of my amp and was told these slots may be contributing to this) and received two - Str-12 AX7-A ecc83's from MESA. Are...

oh - and another thing - I have always had more luck it terms of reliability issues with heads and extension cabs than combo amps.

YEs YEs its subtle but there. The combo amps IMO 1/12 didn't sound as full sounding than the horizontal rectifier cab with the stiletto head. The combo also sounded thinner than the rectifer cab and didn't have as much low end thump.

i cant really speak for the vop9 because i have never used one, but the od9 pro plus is in a different league than the od 808. it can just do everything the 808 can do, but can also do a "fatter" distorted tone while still staying warm in the boost mode setting IMO. I have spent many hours using...

Just wondering if anybody could suggest what kind of ac adaptor to buy for use with this particular wah pedal. I have been online and different stores recommend all different kinds of ac adaptors for this wah pedal. I did not want to buy one that would damage the pedal or, cause it to make...
