Okay--I just gave my amp a short workout...the change between channels is, for all intents and purposes, instantaneous. There is MAYBE a tenth of a second delay (or less!) when switching --it seems to be just enough to avoid an annoying "Pop!" The change is completely noiseless on my amp. It...

To address the second question regarding MIDI-- While the manual mentions MIDI in its explanation of the "External Switching Jacks," these jacks are only 1/4 inch footswitch jacks. If you have a MIDI-controlled device capable of doing the same thing a footswitch does (e.g. complete the circuit...

Very cool--obviously there are lots of ROV lovers! As far as channel switching problems, I haven't noticed any delay or undue noise when switching. Anyone else?

I'm sorry you have to sell an amp--we all know how that feels! I won't repeat all the details on the Voodoo mod. Suffice to say that Channel 2 still "feels" like a Recto, but the distortion now has a character that allows it to punch through the stage mix more successfully--just what I needed...

Thanks for the welcome. It's my third Mesa, and I've never been disappointed with any of them. There's an unbelieveable amount of information on this board and a horde of down-to-earth, regular, old-fashioned guitar junkies. Heaven. I'm looking forward to wasting many hours in front of my...

I don't want to scare you away from the Rocktron--it's a nice unit. It's quiet, the effects quality is excellent, and it changes from program to program noiselessly, too. Try to get some other opinions first. I'm going to write to Rocktron to see if there may be something wrong with the chorus...

It is a dual delay with each having a max delay time of 1000 ms (1 second).

My new Rect-O-Verb makes me happy, happy, happy. A definite keeper. She sounds great at low volumes and just gets better as I turn her up. And 50 watts are loud! She lives in a comfy recording studio and when she goes out, she wears a custom made padded and reinforced rolling case. She went to...

musicbox & fatboy: Well spoken regarding the explanation of latency, but anyone familiar with how a mixer works understands the answer is not that you can only use digital FX with serial loops and analog FX with parallel loops. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is the type of effect...

If by "old" Rocktron unit, you mean the Intellifex, I don't know if they make it anymore—it’s not on the website. I understand they were great and would like to get my hands on one! The replacement is the Xpression, which I use currently with my Rect-O-Verb head. I think it sounds very good...

I don't mean to rehash an old thread, but I'm new here. My $.02--I use the Rect-O-Verb Series II effects loop with a rack mount FX unit (Rocktron). It sounds great; it includes an EQ section, flange, chorus, delay, phaser, roto-speaker sim, and pitch change. Other than being finicky about how...

If you're not ready for a rave review of Trace and his Voodoo Amp mods, stop reading now! After playing three-piece for several years (and wearing me completely out!), our band added another guitarist and a keyboard player. The gigs were coming in fast-and-furious and it was time to upgrade my...

A former Mark IIB and 50/50 owner, I just came back to Mesa after several years with a modeling amp. but I'm feeling much better, now. I could (and will) wander through this forum for hours reading cool amp stuff.
