    how to keep strings clean/new?

    Wipe em down, over and under after every use. Emergency? Hehehehe.. piece of aluminum foil, fold it, put under string, fold up, then slide it back n forth several times whole length of string. It helps remove the gunk UNDER the string that will build up, "re-brightens" just a tad, and cleans...

    What's the Best Mic's for recording Guitar Amps?

    Hi! Rough one... For just a single mic, I would most likely go Royer 121 first. Set back a bit, get positioning like I want, and go. I prefer using a very clean pre, no compression (though some LOVE using a DIstressor), and depending on the setup (single, stereo, w/d/w), more than one mic. I...

    Question for Triaxis users.

    I have 2 basic ones for dirt, one for clean(ish), and then have a few copies of each. I will assign a copy to a program, and then tweak for that day, that cab, etc. Most times I simply use one of those three with no tweaks. This is why I wish I could have a lower cost pre that just did the Lead...

    Mesa Quad and a solid state power amp

    Hi! I used to have a full SS rig I would use at one point. Had tube issues on the road, and got pissed and sold the tube stuff, bought SS. Went back to tubes, got irked again, etc. MosFET type amps are a bit more tube like, so you can typically get a bit more of that response form them. Not all...

    Third channel mod for Studio Pre!

    It *should* allow use of the tube as another stage of gain. Would need to check the schematic.. does the Reverb do a send and return, out thru V5b and back thru V5a? If so, that adds the full tube- 2 triodes. Done well, it could be.. interesting...

    EV's in closed cab?

    Hmm.. G-Flex is 2x12 ported I think? Definitely worth a shot. Funny thing- I was actually looking for a cheap unloaded G-Flex 2x12 to try out due to the porting. EV actually had a guy draw up plans for cabs for their speakers, and the Thiele (ported) he drew up is a standard still for the...

    EV's in closed cab?

    4x12 closed a few times (Jake E Lee!). Currently, 2 EVM-12L, and 2 others, X pattern. I have the EV's wired to one out, the others to another. Using a TriAxis into a stereo power amp, or slave a head (line out box from speaker out) into it, and speaker outs to each speaker type. Adjust/blend to...

    TriAxis vs Studio Pre

    Hi! Thanks! I did not know all that specific info on the TA, but from hitting the schematic and trying to figure what they were doing what with where and all, it was pretty obvious how people could easily abuse it and get horrible results. The amount of misinformation (modeller, emulator...

    TriAxis vs Studio Pre

    Hi! Thx for the reply! I actually swapped the ECC83's I love over. I put one in V3; I checked the schematic, and seeing what was where doing what, I tried V3 and V2 first, then V3 and V1. I popped the tubes from the Studio into the TA, and the TA was still doing well for me. After that, I had...

    TriAxis vs Studio Pre

    Hi! I know first post, and possibly a touchy area... sorry for that ahead of time, but I do seriously need some feedback. Please. I have owned a TriAxis for several years. I only really use Lead 2, tend toward the Green sometimes, Yellow others. Lead 1 does not really "do it" for me at all, and...
