I noticed on the newer Rectos that they've incorporated a solo boost for all channels. Would this mod be available for the older TOVs? Anyone tried this or have any ideas?

I'm willing to bet that something in the effects loop could be used but can it be footswitched. If not then a more serious mod would be needed.

I'm not likely to do this type of mod myself but I'm really after if it is possible and would it do anything to the existing channel sounds.

thanks
 
You can do it using the existing loop circuit provided you don't use the loop for anything else.

Put a shorted plug (connect tip to ground in any loose plug you have) in the FX return jack. Turn the loop *on* using the switch in the back of the amp (to On Orange And Red) and *off* using the footswitch, and set the volume for your solo sound using the FX Send level and Loop Active Master as you would if you were setting the loop up normally. Then use the Mix knob to dial down the level for your rhythm sound (it will work backwards, 0% = full volume, 100% = silent). Turn the loop on for rhythm and off for solo, with the footswitch.

It's a bit fiddly but it is workable.
