Actually I am pretty sure it is a tube problem, but I am not sure if it is a power amp or preamp tube. I have a Mark IV.
The problem is when I let a chord ring, the volume level becomes inconsistant and on a clean tone it starts to break up in a weird way. Also, with higher gain, all the gain is there at first, but when sustaining a note it dies out sooner than it should. The cleaner the tone, the more obvious the problem.
I have switched power an preamp tubes and I can get it to sound better, but sustained notes or chords never sound as smooth as they should. I am guessing that my amp is being a little picky about which tube I use in V1.
Any suggestions or ideas?
BTW: Hello everyone! This is my first post here. I have been on the Randall board for my RM100 and just found the Boogie Board. These are great places to share info.
