I always try to use the same settings both live and in the studio. But since we're always micing up our amps at gigs, I do not necessarily keep the settings that sounds good at stage, but those that sounds good through the mix.

I find SM57 pretty useless for micing V30's. The sound tend to get quite mid-heavy and thin. But I would place the 57 so close to the speaker as possible without touching the grille, and put it just a bit more than half way in to the core. From there it's just to add som high's on the EQ in your...

that is so darn typical mesa humour

I tried to put books inside my cabinet (lol), but that didn't work though.

They've lost themselves completely if you compare them to earlier albums. They play more power metal and badly structured ballads now, and I certainly know a lot of better bands to top the hierarchy.

I think the album was quite bad. Period.

better than most 17 years old kids

There's no Mark V on this album. Why use a "modeling amp" when you have the originals

I don't think his new tone fitted the new album's mix at all and it sounds like he's miced it with a SM57, or just pulled the prescense on a mark IV (I know he uses a Mark IIC+ now)

his tone on the new album was cool, but it didn't fit the mix at all...

lol, yes its actually removed

you should be able to hear the fan across the room, but not in the buzzing way. About the fuse, this would be a sign of some snuffy things in the power section

thought they were using krank...

I've been trying a few of the V2's, and they're pretty usable, except from the clean channel, that totally lacks the high-end spark. I've been facing some problems with the FX-loop as well. But the distortion is quite good, so the amp is really good for the price.

absolutely an A, as you can see on the two mono FX loops in square form, rather than the stereo loop with triangle shape on a B

Hahaha, I love tards

sounds very tubish, indeed. same happened to me. can't remember how I fixed it, though..

lol, wtf What's the point with this tread without links or more info?

for any slight notice in volum change with distorted boost, you'll have to turn the preamp gain pretty low anyway. I think most of petrucci's tone builds up around being played loud at gigs. His tone wasn't special at all in the new chaos in motion DVD.

it wasn't that heavy.. had more of the classic metal vibe.
