I did a tone demo between an ADA MP-2 and the Triple Rectifier's preamp section. Both were A/B switched through the TR effects loop to see what the differences would be between the preamps. Basically I tweaked the ADA MP-2 to sound as close the settings I had on the TR and recorded the...

Looking to buy a Mesa 2:90 power amp in very good condition. I'm selling my TR and going back to a preamp setup. I can buy once my TR has been sold. Thanks!

If you ever considering going back to the Marshall, I've got a Marshall 1960B 4 x 12 cab that is in mint condition that I've been looking to trade for a Recto 4 x 12.

Updated rig below. The bottom 3 rack spaces on the bottom rack is my PC-based recording workstation converted to a rack chassis. The Marshall JCM 900 1960B cabinet is available to trade for a Mesa 4 x 12 Rectifier cab.

No change after switching V4 with the preamp tube next to it.

Called Mesa/Boogie. The guy didn't really seem well informed. He insisted that the Output knob had something to do with the effects level although the MASTERS are what determine effects loop level when the FX loop is active (not bypassed). Plus they want ME to pay to ship the unit to them...

In essence, all you need is a MIDI foot controller, a 5 or 7-pin MIDI cable, and an effects unit or amp that responds to it. All MIDI does is transfer a small amount of digital information (like program change numbers) between devices. If your amp, FX, and other devices are MIDI capable, the...

I tried using my GCX with an ART X15 Ultrafoot (my favorite pedal). I quickly deduced that the low confusion factor was worth the $399 for a compatible pedal board (GC Pro).

'Had to get it from the Vegas GC since it's the only Mesa dealer in Nevada. I live in Reno (it's an 8-9 hour drive).

Gain settings CH3, Gain = Max (just to eliminate all variables), eveything at 12 o'clock, FX Loop ON, Send 12 o'clock, OUTPUT knob in front at tolerable level (around 8 - 9 o'clock). Bold setting, silicon diode. Still no hum? If I recollect correctly, if the FX loop is bypassed, there's not...

What do you think about splitting all the FX SEND and RETURNS with Y-cables? Half the presets on all the FX boxes take advantage of stereo effects, pans, etc. It seems I'd be missing half of the effect by coming out mono, i.e., stereo panning would sound more like tremolo swelling in and...

Alright, I *think* I got everything working, although I'm yet to try your setup to see if it's better than what I have going now. Currently I can switch almost everything on/off and, by accident, I don't have to use the solid state ADA power amp (that's a VERY good thing)! Somewhere in the...

Any idea how to connect the GCX Audio Switcher with the following signal path in mind? Keep in mind the following: 1. Effects are shared to both amp loops (If I run out of 8 loops, the effects can come after the ADA MP-2 preamp) 2. Amps should be A/B switched 3. The preamp/amp share one...

Okay, perhaps I've had a few too many Coronas, but... Quote: "90 Watts per Channel, Simul-Class Power. Capable of powering 6 stacks per channel." Is that even possible??? I'd laugh hysterically, but maybe he knows something I don't know.

It's a shocker that there are only 0 bids. I suspect eBay snipers at the last minute.

If it's anything like my Triple Rectifier, the RETURN has to be on 100% or you'll experience phasing issues.

Sealed box. Perhaps shipping had something to do with it (i.e., "Ace Ventura Pet Detective", heh).

Yeah, I'm really starting to think you're right. I came to the same conclusion tonight that it might be a tube because the other guitar player happened to have bought a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier (without my knowing we both went out and bought 'em at the same time) and all that comes out of his...

Not sure. Stock tubes?

First of all, thanks to the board for the amount of feedback and help I've been getting on here since I've become a TR owner. Yet a few more questions... 1. What output level is the TR FX loop set to? -10db or +4db? 2. For those of you using high end multifx processors with your TR's, A)...
