    I made a full tube clone of the Mark IIC+ preamp... in a pedal

    i was just running it into the front end of my Rivera Venus 5 with the tone stack at noon and running it thru a Mesa 2x12 vertical cab with v30's. No reason why you can't run it into the FX loop return of an amp and bypass the preamp.

    I made a full tube clone of the Mark IIC+ preamp... in a pedal

    I just made up a daughterboard to add in a 5-band EQ. unfortunately the controls will be pots, not sliders. I don't have access to a milling machine to get slots milled out (yet!) I should have the boards in a few weeks. I also made some updates to the main board to add in some of the other...

    I made a full tube clone of the Mark IIC+ preamp... in a pedal

    I don't know if this is the proper place to post, but i just recently made a clone of the mark II C+ preamp section and put it in a pedal. It uses an SMPS power supply to take a 12vDC input and boost it up to approx 265V to the tubes. I'm still working on getting this higher to 300-350v but...

    Early 90s 2-channel Dual Rectifier footswitch help

    Hi All apologies if this question has been asked before, but i can't seem to find any information on this. My friend recently acquired a '92 dual rec (S/N R-002419) but doesn't have a footswitch for it. I can't seem to find any schematics for the fs anywhere. From the looks of it i would say...

    OD type pedals that work with Mark V - my experience

    i just build a custom OD pedal for someone and did a quick sound demo before packing it up. There are two ODs here: right side is a Timmy and the left side is a modified Tube Screamer. Ran this on the mark V channel 1 fat mode in "normal" mode and flat EQ. http://youtu.be/doq-hz3n5n8

    OD type pedals that work with Mark V - my experience

    i've had good luck with a modified tube screamer and a few other boosts. my go-to tone now is using a FET booster into channel 2 edge or channel 3 c+ or mark IV

    BB Preamp with a Mark V?

    haven't tried a BB, but I have a few pedals that i use as a boost (diy EP , dingotone HZD boost, diy OCD, and a modded tube screamer) and they all work great. i love channel 2 edge mode with a boost. you still get that "urgency" but with a bit more saturation. mkII c+ is great too.. roll back...

    Mark V right for me? *update, finally tried it out

    I use10 watt mode on channel 3 almost exclusively when I am playing at home with a 2x12 vertical recto cab and I cannot believe how massive it sounds at bedroom levels. I do all of my recordings at this volume level too. The last one I did you can even hear me hitting the strings and it sounds...

    Still discovering new tones...

    I've had my mark v for almost 2 years now and in the last week I have "discovered" two new (to me) killer tones. Tone 1: I recently got a new clean boost and was mucking around on channel 2 and I found that with the clean boost on and using edge mode I could get a great articulate medium-high...
