    How Much Noise Should a 50/50 Make?

    Dave did you ever get this sorted out? My pre should show up today. I've got a gig at church right after work so hopefully my wife can bring it when she shows up and I can get a chance to fiddle around with it. I brought my backup case of preamp tubes to use in the studio if she does...

    Burr Brown

    On mouser's site there looks to be several variety of the 2604. Which one of the little 8 pin chips would I need to get?

    Burr Brown

    Here's another similar but slighly unrelated question regarding these chips. I've got an overdrive pedal that uses the TI 4558P opamp. would there be any benefit to swapping it out for the 2604?

    Best delay plug-in for guitars?

    Waves supertap if you can afford it. It's sick but for the money it costs, you could almost buy a rack FX unit.

    I have $750. What preamp?

    I'll let you know in a few days if everything goes as planned... but based on what I know from the valvemaster and V3 regarding how they sound with those preamp tubes (I think I've got one or more of all of those you listed) 1-JAN Philips 5751 - Great for adding clarity at the expense of punch...

    FedEx / UPS Claim Nightmares

    UPS made me wait forever but they came through when I needed them. I shipped a guitar with them that was insured for $800. It got damaged and it took them 5 months to work with their insurance company but eventually I got a check for the amount I insured the guitar for. So I can't fault...

    I have $750. What preamp?

    It doesn't matter if the power tubes are balanced if the amp is run in 50 watt mode. As long as the two middle tubes are matched it will work. I've run it and my V3 with different tubes in the inner and outer sockets with no problems. The new tubes from doug will probably get here before the...

    I have $750. What preamp?

    What power amp to with a studio pre?

    I've got 2 cabs I'm wanting to use with it. One is an earcandy buzz bomb 2X12 and the other is an avatar 2X12.

    I have $750. What preamp?

    I'm discussing the studio pre with "themailmanpsycho" as I've settled on the pre. I just need to figure out a good amp to go with it... 50/50? See my other topic. Oh, he doesnt have the footswitch and it needs new preamp tubes but that shouldn't be a big deal. Are those voodooman switches...

    What power amp to with a studio pre?

    I'm waiting for "themailmanpsycho" to get back to me about buying his studio pre but I'll also need a power amp to go with it. 'm shooting for an authentic mark tone so I want to get a mesa amp to match up with the preamp. I know the 2:90 is the bad mamma jamma and all that but through...

    I have $750. What preamp?

    I'm wanting the ballpark tone of the MK II/III's... more specifically Petrucci's Goregeous tone on the live Score dvd... but anyways, realizing that he uses a lot of expensive stuff, I'd like a good starting point for a rig that can sort of get me the same basic idea of that type tone. I've...

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    I already have... a couple of times I belive... all of which were aimed at Van for putting up the same argument you do. And if you want to know which amps, I'd use a mesa blue angel and divided by thirteen for cleans and an Elmwood modena and/or makoplex for overdrive and leads. That's nearly...

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    My bad poe. Got the names mixed up. Was it Dave W. by chance? I've heard the same thing but never thought anything of it as the Legacy really isn't my cup of tea.

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    You guys need to chill out. There's nothing childish about what I did. I read a post full of misinformation that I corrected but I did so expecting the inevitable knee jerk reaction from you guys and what a surprise. This thread has turned out exactly as I knew it would. :roll: There were...

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    Nobody's bashing anyone. If I had posted the same thing about a mesa on another forum, how many mesa owners would be chiming in correcting me telling me the amp was bad, the saleseman that told me a mesa was low gain, etc... I GUARANTEE you there would be waves of mesa owners flocking to the...

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    Relax man. No one's getting up in anyones face here. I was just pointing things out from my point of view. It defineatly sounds like the amp wasn't working properly. I have a local guy who opened up for our band one night who uses a dual rectifier and now pays me $20 per gig for me to bring...

    TREMOVERB vs. Carvin V3

    As an owner of a V3, it most certainly DOES have lots of gain and gobs of sustain I might add. In the studio late last year, I had specific parts of one of our songs that I sustained a single note through the entire verse part of the song effortlessly so this no sustain argument holds no...
