So, last week, I got a hold of a roadster. First of all, this amp is just a blast. I love playing with it but, I am having a small issue with it. I am trying to tighten up the distortion and having little success. The type of stuff that I play is Nevermore/Mystic Prophecy so, it is a lot of fast muted sequences... you get the idea.
Now, I am new to the whole tube realm and I want to get away from using my Digitech 2101. But, since I cannot quite get the tone that I am looking for, I am forced to use the Roadster as strictly a poweramp stage. I did add a Tung-Sol to the V1 stage which seemed to help a bit but, not quite there.
So, to the point....
What is the holy grail setup to be running infront of the amp, in the loop inorder to get that tight rhythm tone that people seem to be getting from the recto series. Could some of you Mesa Thrash/Powermetal gods please inform me of my major malfunction?
In return, I offer a funny. (Sorry if it is old as the internet)
Thanks,
-Nate
