I havent posted on here before as I have found that my questions can often been answered by using the search function. I recently downsized from my Simul 295 powered rack setup to a Mini Rec. I absolutely love the sounds available from this amp and appreciate the much easier lug and carry. The only query I have is the effects loop, for the life of me I cant see why the master volume 'feeds' the effects send, why would it not just be a direct line out with an adjustable level? I have set all of my tones running a T.C Electonics Nova system at bedroom levels, upon taking it to rehearsal and cranking the master (one of the big attractions of a low wattage amp) all of the levels are now wrong, overbearing reverb and delays etc :shock: . Obviously I can change the effects patches but why do it this way? it means having several banks of patches needed to match the difference in the master volume level.
Am I missing something here? I'm no newbie and have just been used to setting an effects level send, writing patches and it never mattered where the master was set....until now.
I firmly believe if the mini rec had a nice built-in reverb it would be close to the ideal amp for most settings. If this has been covered (I couldnt find it) I am happy to be linked to the appropriate thread.
Cheers
