    Randall RT2/50 question

    Wondering whether or not MIDI channel switching mode allows for use of just a single mono speaker cab with the RT2/50. I'd like to toggle between the 6L6 or EL34 pairs via MIDI but run a single 212 or 412 mono cab. Is this possible or do I have to run a cab for each pair of tubes in switching...

    Which high gain module for Melodic death tones?

    I'm very new to the MTS camp, but have owned loads of vintage and modern amps in my 25 years of recording and gigging. I tend to play vintage or boutique heads as clean platforms for my gain pedals, but the MIDI capability of the RM-100 is something I really dig. The previous high gain channel...

    Changing tubes on modules.. recommend me a new tubes.

    I like the EH preamp tubes too, as well as the 9th generation Shuguang Chinese preamp tubes, but you can just as easily get a dud new tube as with NOS. If you buy well screened NOS preamp tubes you stand a better chance of longevity than most any current production stuff. The QC at GE, Philips...

    Boss GT-6 and the rm100

    bduersch.. thanks! I almost forgot about wah, which of course I use also. btw, since I'm using the RM-100 parallel loop for the time based fx, should my chorus/delay/verb be set 100% wet inside the GT unit and wet/dry balance be controlled from the front panel of the head?

    Boss GT-6 and the rm100

    I think I "sort of" understand this 4 cable method with the RM-100 (I just got mine today so haven't had a chance to try it yet) Will the 4 cable method allow me to place the time based effects (chorus, delay, etc.) of the GT processor after the RM preamps? Does it also allow me to push the...

    Soilwork and the RM-100

    Well said, and I'm well aware of the practice myself. I have a few buddies with endorsements. To your point, here is a pic of Peter during the STD sessions. Peavey 5150, ENGL and Laney heads clearly seen.. those amps could easily be the source of the tones on that album.

    Soilwork and the RM-100

    I have a 2004 Randall catalog showing Ola Frenning and Peter Wichers of Soilwork as Randall Endorsees. I suspect they used the RM-100 head. Anyone know for sure.. and maybe which modules they used for their tones. These guys are terrific players. Randall is listed as an endorsement on their 2005...

    Boss GT-6 and the rm100

    bduersch thanks so much. I am using a Boss GT-5.. can I assume the above precedure still applies? I've known about the 4 cable method for awhile but never tried it back when I owned the JSX and Triple XXX heads. Now that I'm about to take delivery of the RM100, I need to make use of my GT-5 to...

    Module recommendations please

    Guitarguy and Distortoman.. Thanks to both of you. Big help from your comments. The 1086 sounds like a must have. I finally got to check out an RM100 head last night. Modules were Blackface, Topboost, and XTC. All were winners. The Topboost was the real surprise. With my PRS it could go...

    Running the RM-100 at 50 watts- how?

    So how exactly is it done? Pull the outer two tubes, rebias the two inner tubes for proper current draw?

    Module recommendations please

    I have not ordered my RM-100 head yet, but plan on buying the head and modules separately. The Blackface module is a no brainer for clean tones, but I'd like some recommendations for the higher gain stuff. The XTC seems like a winner, and perhaps the Rectified? fyi, my cab is a straight front...
