    TriAxis metal users - gain level poll

    As per the title - I'm interested where you guys have your Gain/LD Drive set and what style of music you play. For example, I play rhythm in a thrash (sorta) band and my Gain is set to 7.5 and LD on 6.0 using EMG or BKP Nailbomb pickups. LD2 Orange. For leads, I have 7.5 both, LD2 Green. P.S...

    TriAxis Gain sporadically stuck on 10

    I am lost for words. I haven't played my Tri in about a month due to lack of time and last time I played it it worked fine. Then I come to rehearsal and it sounds like the Gain is stuck on 10. Lowering the Gain to 0 has no effect, it does not even lower the gain, even with the numbers showing...

    2:90/TriAxis badly misbehaving

    Well, here's one that made me **** my pants: Let me start off by saying that I keep my amp(s) in a controlled environment free from dust, moisture, extreme hot/cold and away from prying hands. It's literally just sitting there until it's rehearsal time. The other day, my TriAxis sounded like...

    2:90 tube roles

    A while ago I asked this question and I didn't get a definitive answer. I had my 2:90 apart for some tube rolling and I decided to post this. When looking at the unit from the front, the rightmost tube is the input buffer tube. The middle tube is the PI for the "A" channel, the leftmost tube is...

    Envelope filter reverse effect

    My friend builds pedals and his most recent build is an envelope filter - he brought it over to my place and we started twiddling with it and since I don't really hold any preconceptions (and I've also never played an envelope filter before :lol: ) I just twisted and turned the (as of yet)...

    AKG WMS40 Mini wireless

    I'm always skeptical when I see gear with an insanely low price tag, kind of that "too good to be true feeling"; but I've seen almost nothing but good reviews on this thing, and it also costs nothing - ~100€ for a wireless is peanuts, if it's good! And, the transmitter can run up to 30hrs on a...

    Mesa embroidered patch

    Where the hell can I get one? I tried eBay et al but they seem to be non-existent. I found one on an online store, supposedly from Boogie, I emailed them if they could sell it but no dice. http://yhst-94503715414116.stores.yahoo.net/patch-mesaeng.html Finding a Marshall one was a synch and I...

    Pulling a matched quad for testing

    My friend wants to re-tube his ENGL Powerball and it occurred to me that I could take one quad of my Winged =C= 6L6s for him to try them and see how they sound. (I wouldn't be using the 2:90 with nothing in the sockets of course, I'd use my other amp) Can running the tubes in a differently...

    TriAxis LED crystal died

    As the topic says. The lowermost crystal of the right number on the green "Program" display died, any ideas what I could do? I mean I know it has nothing to do with the sound it just looks stupid that I get preset 1A instead of preset 18 and preset 1? instead of 12 :lol:

    BattleX - Live multitrack audio

    Couple of clips from our gig in late March - these guys really took their time delivering the audio. :? Mixed and polished by our drummer, Simeon Garkov. To hear my homemade explorer w/BKP Nailbombs>TriAxis/2:90>Marshall 1960AV rig pan hard right, to hear our other guitarist's Jackson SL2H...

    Cables between preamp/poweramp

    Did you notice any difference using different cables between your preamp and poweramp? Mine are kind of on the cheap side but they work perfectly and I'm thinking of dropping some moula for George Ls.

    Making a TriAxis lead tone more cutting/skinny

    In the studio, we auditioned 3 amps for lead tones - the Mark IV (Lead 2 Green) mode + 2:90 (levlels set to around 1-2 o'clock :shock: ), my Marshall JVM410 and my bandmate's ENGL Powerball. I was negatively and positively surprised at the Mesa. Positively because the lead tone was drippin'...

    TriAxis and GT-6 - phasing issues

    My TriAxis+2:90 + BOSS GT-6 in the loop has started acting up. Well, at least the FX Loop part. I have weird phasing issues with my GT-6. There's a very pronounced phasing "cocked wah" type of sound when engaging the FX Loop, even with the BOSS on bypass or nothing engaged at all. This wasn't...

    G12T-57+V30 in a 2x12 + TriAxis/2:90 combination

    When I changed the speakers of my Marshall 1960A, I bought 4 V30s, put them in the 1960 (making it a 1960AV :lol: ), and put two of the G12T-75 is this cheapo MC212 cab I had. The stock speakers were crap and the T-75s were an improvement, but when I got my Mesa I quickly realized the T-75s...

    Jackson X Series

    Anyone ever play the KVXMG? I was fooling around with the Guitar Builder and a King V that I'd like would be around 3-3.5k. I don't care if it's made of gold, I'm not paying that kind of cash for a guitar. Then I noticed the X series King V with EMGS - now that's more accessible, but my...

    2:90/TriAxis on Lead 1 Red (no Fat) and Recto - how close?

    I was wondering the other day... how close to a Recto tone (Red channel modern lets say) is the TriAxis? I played a Reborn last summer, and going by memory, I tweaked my current Recto settings with the new preamp tube cocktail (V1 TungSol, V2 EH, V3 Sovtek 12AX7WA, V4 EH, V5 Sovtek 12AX7WA), and...

    TriAxis - bass and band context

    The TriAxis has been quite a journey so far. I've had it for about almost a year and a half together with the 2:90 and what I've noticed is the classic alone vs. band issue. What I meant was, Deep engaged and Bass on 3 sounded great but in a band it always sounded like a "neck pickup" tone! A...
