I've generally played 412 cabs in the past but am considering picking up a 212. I'd like a tighter sound with slightly less bass than my 412. Can anyone here vouch for the Egnater Tourmaster 212 cab? How do the Celestion Elite 80 speakers compare to Vintage 30s? Any input on this cab or...

...performing Ted Nugent's "Stranglehold." Randall RM-4 Rhythm: Plexi (with .001 cap mod) 1st solo: 1086 (stock) Beginning of 2nd solo: Recto (with .001 cap mod) and phaser effect Remainder of 2nd solo and outro: 1086 Power amp: VHT 2/50/2 Cab: Randall XL 412 with Vintage 30's (though I was...

I'd like my Plexi and Recto modules to cut a little better in live situations. My other modules (Blackface, Ultra Lead, 1086) all cut well and still sound very warm while doing so. To get a similar level of cut from my Plexi & Recto, I have to set them brighter than I would prefer. For the...

For those of you who have done it: Do you know the function of each of the two tubes in the modules? Does changing one of them (the left one vs right one) have a more pronounced effect than changing the other? Any specific tube recommendations? Thanks. Gary

Today I stumbled accross some old Groove Tube & Sovtek preamp tubes that I had bought back in the 80's....think I may experiment with plugging them into my RM4 chasis. Looking at the back of the RM4, what are the functions of each of the three preamp tubes? I figure the one on the bottom is...

Anybody know where to get them? One of the castors on my XL 412 cab has broken, and the local hardware stores don't have any that will fit. I hate to think I'm going to have to try to get them direct from Randall, after reading all the tales here about dealing with Randall customer service. :-(

I use the Plexi module for my Marshallesque, crunchy rhythm sound. Think Black Crowes, Jet, Buckcherry, etc It has enough gain for me, but if I could tweak a couple things, they would be: 1. More mids (I already have them dimed). 2. A less brittle high end. Now, is what I am describng - a...

These are the other two preamps I considered before buying my RM4. Unfortunately, there was no place locally where I could try any of these three preamps before buying, and I've often wondered how these other two s would've stacked up to the RM4. For anybody who's owned the Prophesy or...

I know you didn't have your VHT 2/50/2 too long before you sold your RM4, but I'm curious how you liked this setup compared to your old RM100. I also use an RM4 through a 2/50/2...having never heard it with the Randall power amp, I often wonder if I'm missing anything. Since you are the only...

Just about everybody out there has and raves about the Plexi. To be honest, it has taken me quite a while to get what I wanted out of the Plexi module (had to do the cap mod for one thing). Hardly anybody, however, talks about the Brown module. I know it's supposed to be a modified version of...

Currently, mine are as follows: Each module volume is between 10 and 2 o'clock. RM4 master volume is at 12 o'clock. Power amp (VHT 2/50/2) volumes 10-11 o'clock. I just realized I've never really experimented with any other settings (i.e., reduce input level to power amp and the power...

My band, Krunch, plays pretty much every Fri-Sat night around SE Virginia and occassionally in Naggs Head, NC. Mostly modern rock covers...a little dance and classic rock as well. I run an RM4 into a VHT 2/50/2, Rocktron Xpression for effects. Modules: Blackface, Plexi, Recto, Ultra Lead...

Wow, what a difference! :D I don't know what Randall was thinking using .0047 caps as stock. I had previously replaced the stock Recto cap with a .0022 and didn't notice a big difference. Going from .0022 to .001 was a much more noticeable step, and well worth it. The .001 cap has saved...

I have a Rocktron Xpression on the way. When it arrives, I can either put it in my RM4's effects loop...or run out of the RM4's Pre-Loop Out into the Xpression and from there direct to the power amp. I believe Bruce Egnater stopped putting an effects loop in the Egnater M4 because he thought...

This past weekend I got to hook up my RM4 for the first time. I'm using a new VHT 2/50/2 for a power amp. I was rather surprised at how much low end my Blackface module was putting out, and it was difficult to dial out without making the high strings sound brittle. There was also some...

I just got this power amp yesterday. For anybody using it, how are you setting the depth/presence knobs? Are you using the Class A/B or A mode? Based on my one time playing it, it seems to me to be a relatively bright/tight power amp to me. I ended up with the presence knob set at about 9-10...

My new RM4 isn't responding to MIDI program changes from my Behringer FCB1010. I am not a novice to MIDI, and my other gear is still responding to the FCB1010, so I don't think the problem is there. I am guessing the RM4 is merely set to receive on another MIDI channel than what my FCB1010 is...

Yesterday I finally got to fire up my RM4... Was a little surprised that my Plexi module sounded "buzzier" than I was expecting. I tried one of these out in a store over a year ago and didn't remember it sounding like this. Though I bought it new, my Plexi module is obviously old stock and...

I'm still waiting on my power amp to arrive, so I've yet to test drive my shiny new RM4.... :( However, I can see that my Recto and Ultra Lead modules have the old/stock .0047 caps. Based on all I've heard about the tighter response of the smaller value caps, I was wondering: Do any of you...

I'm finally getting a rack rig together after years of dragging around too much unorganized gear. Just got a RM4 and have a VHT 2/50/2 on the way...but I need to pick up a new multieffects unit. There was a lot of discussion on the old Egnater board comparing the G Major and Expression, but of...
