    How much gain should a Mark IIb Coliseum have?

    Just got one, and it seems to have as much gain as my MkIII's I used to own. This clip was input gain at 9.5, treble 10, mids 5, bass 1.75, lead drive 7.5, presence 3, pull bright n pull treble shift pulled. pull gain wasn't used. GEQ in V like sweet silence Puppets era. Celestion V30 left...

    Weird noise

    99% chance it is a preamp tube. I had the reverb tube go bad on my Mark III, and it turned the reverb contol into an extra EQ. :lol: Also check your power cord to make sureit isn't frayed, and also try a different wall outlet on a different circuit. Also are your tube shields on? When I took all...

    Where'd my bass go?

    I disagree, I think it could be a preamp or poweramp tube. I have had a few go out over the last few years, all were relatively new. Also, make sure all tubes are seated properly. Also, make sure you are using a proper power cord plugged into an outlet that has proper wire as small wire can...

    Eminence reignmaker with Dyne

    Sorry, been busy partsocastering. I do shut the verb off at mousefart volumes, and had to before with loud bedroom volumes, but now can leave it on at loud apartment volumes. As for the change with the dial, I haven,t yet had an opportunity to get it at loud enough volumes to evaluate the tonal...

    Eminence reignmaker with Dyne

    I like the cleans with the reignmaker, but ymmv. Speakers can change the sound of an amp as radically as changing to a different amp. I can see how it sort of sounds like a blend of the v30 and greenback type speakers, but leans more greenback, and no nasally mids. Has that nice top end sizzle...

    Eminence reignmaker with Dyne

    So, my biggest complaint about my dyne 27 combo was the touchy volume knob trying to achieve bedroom tones, and how hard it was to get the volume where I wanted it. I run el34 tubes and had a stock mc90 in the combo. I installed an eminence reignmaker fdm speaker in place of the mc90. Mission...

    What amp could give the Electra Dyne a run for its money!??

    No bad tubes. It is reported at vintage modern forum that the 50 watt vintage modern puts out 50 watts at max power vs. A plexi which puts out closer to 90 from a 50 watter. This would lead to almost 3db less and it is less bright than a plexi which leads to less perceived volume. The forum...

    Just sold my Electra Dyne!

    The dyne sounds better than any modeler at loud bedroom levels, except for axe fx or kemper. I refuse to shell out 2k for a home solution. Different strokes for different folks.

    What amp could give the Electra Dyne a run for its money!??

    I used to own one, the 50 watt 2266. I had fx loop fet failures 2x in 7 months of ownership. Felt cheap as well. It is a hot rodded jtm 45, so it is different. It is very dynamic, but you can't balance the 2 ranges volume wise. Low range will always sound 1/2 volume or so. A 2 trick pony that...

    Just sold my Electra Dyne!

    Good luck in your hunt. Maybe something with powerscaling would work for you? I am going to try the Eminence FDM red coat to see how it sits with the dyne, as it is the touchiest master volume I have ever had. Off to deaf in 1/100th of a turn! :D

    Just bought Electra Dyne

    I use a Radial hot british for my metal tones. I had it side by side with my Mesa Mark III both thru mc-90's and was able to dial in the radial to sound identical to the Mark including tightness and v scoop. I just sold the mark III because it was redundant with this pedal. I run the gain on the...

    Yep. All original. The head is unmodded as well but I'm guessing had the caps done at some point because it is quiet and very musical.

    1st jam with the dyne.

    Went to a buddies place this weekend and jammed with him and his drummer and bassist (all killer musicians btw). My buddy has a 2010 Quickrod 1/2 stack with small block/big block eminences. My Dyne is a 1x12 MC-90 equipped combo with stock Mesa preamp tubes and Mesa el34's with a lonestar open...

    NCD! with pics!

    Yep. 'dyne, recto or mark and you got an amp with nuts. Direct slave out clip into behringer direct box with virtual cab on. Does require post eq with a scoop at 2k, and cut some below 100hz, boost at 5khz. Sim sounds more like v30's to me: http://soundcloud.com/billy-coverdale/dynedirecttest

    The settings for the recording are the ones in the picture of the 'dyne in this thread. Funny I forgot that and wasted time typing them, and this post as well! :lol:

    Oops, Volume at 3:00 o'clock, not 9. Sorry about that. The only way that P.O.S. mic works is if it is parallel to the grille, i.e. if you just hung it by the cord over the amp, only off axis, 18" away. I remember the 1st time I tried it, I thought why am I using this crap mic, it ruins vocals...

    I literally just guessed and put an sm57 angled at the same angle as the cone 1/2 way between center and edge, and a cheap old Nady sp-1 90 deg. to the amp on speaker edge 18" away. Sm57 panned hard left with some post production delay, Sp-1 hard right with nothing else done to it. Strat with...
