in the video Atlas Rise, not only is he using the Mini Rec again it looks like there is a Mark v25 on the counter.

the original Mini Rec 25 included the FX switch giving you the ability to bypass the FX loop circuit and tube. There was a video on Youtube where Randall Smith explained how they added it so if the player wanted to ability to clean up the signal slightly/slightly different tone..., but found...

Not sure if you have one of the originals, but there was an volume oscillation issue. I personally never experienced it. Supposedly only effected 10W modes. Are you using 10 or 25w mode? http://forum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=63561 If this seems to be your issue, contact mesa and...

That amp was not designed to be played in a bedroom. If you want to get a Mesa that will work better (not perfect) for a house, or bedroom look more at the 25w versions. My Mini Rec is much easier to control at lower volumes. But my Single Rec was a PITA, but again its was never designed for...

Thanks for the advice. As for a guitar plugged into the input, makes no difference. And I tried some deoxit in the fx jacks as well, no go. Best way to describe the change. Before the problem the amp had a whooshing/low hiss sound which was acceptable and normal to me. Now, its like when...

This just happened last week. I just got the Mesa 5 band Eq in and connected it to my loop. I was playing around with the settings and then I heard a few crackles and pops. I didnt think much of it as I had the volume very low at the time. When I went to turn it up I noticed the amp had a...

Well, I got my EQ pedal in. Not sure if Im just loosing my mind but my mini rec use to be fairly quiet on ch2. Just like a quiet wooshing sound. After connecting the EQ in the loop and turning it on I heard a couple crackles and pops. Now I have this annoying hum in my amp. Sounds like a...

Ive been debating getting this setup since the release of the 5band eq pedal. I want to use the pedal to shape the rhythm tone on CH2 on my min rec. Ive been watching ebay and craigslist for a while and havent seen any "used" ones come up. Am I safe to assume these are pretty stellar pedals...

how does the feel of the reverb knob compare to all the others. First ive heard about, but sounds like you need to contact mesa for a faulty pot :(

I know nothing is impossible but what you describe sounds highly unlikely. Does the reverb disappear from the sound or does the knob just turn on its own. Im guessing the actual pot is not moving but the set screw for the knob is loose. Just turn your pot post all the way to the left, then...

I think the 25 would be a great option. I like the fact it has the clone cab built in giving you a DI and headphone jack. I also agree when people say to wait and see what the pros/cons are from owners of the amp. I got the mini when it first came out and I have yet had any issues. But they...

I was advised by a few forum members here that an Speaker attenuator is great for small gigs when you want to tame a dual or triple's volume, but supposedly you wont get very tone and bedroom levels due to the lack of output to the speaker. What are you trying to achieve? sorry, Im...

The amp good sound even at low volumes. IMO, there is no need for an attenuator, Ive traveled down that path. I done quite a bit of research and found guys using amps without output volume adding a volume pot in the fx loop to create a master. So I bought quality components and built a...

As posted on your YT channel, I think this is normal. My mini Rec does the same thing.

I own the horizontal 2x12 and in some ways wish I would have when with the vertical if I had my time back. The horz is not a bad weight but its awkward to carry as it only has the silly rubber handle at the top. I wondered why they didnt put the side pole-style handles on the horizontal -...
