Purchased Mini Rectifier

[sulm]

Mini Rectifier is cool amp. Endless tone possibilities. I saw Mesa demo on it and was wondering if 80s part of demo was "Van Halen Brown Sound"?
Any close settings on amp to duplicate Marshall tones that you found? I think I can get fairly close by using 2nd channel, vintage with gain a little more than half up.

Anyway, really enjoy this amp!

Welcome to the club! I've had my Mini Rec for over a year, and my enthusiasm for the amp is as strong now as it was when I first bought it. Enjoy your amp!

Thanks, KiwiJoe.

I am enjoying the Mini Rec. A slight turn of any of the knobs changes the tone.
25 watt mode plenty of reserve volume. Very quiet and lack of hum and extraneous noise I have sometimes heard in
other amps.

If you dime the mids and back off the treble all the way you'll hear an extreme mid boost. I do this in the modern channel. I use the presence control to make up the top end.

If you play in a band or otherwise have a way to play loud, put the amp on "clean" on the 10W setting and just dime the gain and master volume; adjust tone controls to taste. That gives a glorious open, uncompressed OD reminiscent of a JTM45, suitable for anything but metal, and you can roll back the guitar volume to clean it up just like an old NMV Marshall.

I cranked up the amp all the way in clean. It wailed! I didn't wait long to put on ear muffs. Tried in both 10W and 25W modes.
