    First gig with MTS....amp died 10 minutes in.

    I've blown two sets of speakers (though unrelated to the power, I think...) so in general trying to find out what's wrong the thing the amp tech did some sort of power test on it.

    First gig with MTS....amp died 10 minutes in.

    How loud did you have the amp's master? May be unrelated, but my RM100 turns out to be 140W, not 100, so could have something similar and done weird things to the attenuator...

    First practice: amp died, help analysing problem?

    So, just for anyone curious (or has a similar problem): The amp's fine apart from one thing; it's not outputting 100W, it's 140W! Might invest in some better speakers this time! This thing's seriously powerful...

    First practice: amp died, help analysing problem?

    May as well bring up an old thread... Urgh, done it again; blown both speakers. Was at low volume at home and they both just stopped sounding. Exactly the same as before, both speakers now barely register a resistance on my Multimeter. Time to take the amp back to Hot Rox (repair shop)... So...

    Strange but true...

    I'm pretty sure mine is the old version too, have to turn the presence right up and it still sounds more like Rock & Roll rather than metal. Still good, just different. Sounds like we're in the same position. How hard's the density/presence board to take out? I really want to mod it but I'm...

    FS:FT JF-XMG+ *TRADED*

    I'd be tempted if I hadn't royally maxed out my budget this month... Not that I live in the USA.

    Really nice, some really good songs there! The singer has a wonderful voice.

    cool topic idea (atleast I think)

    Nightdare, mind finding some online links to demonstrate the tones you mean audibly?

    cool topic idea (atleast I think)

    I've been thinking of starting something like this for a while as I feel like when someone says"fizzy" (insert any type of tone description here) tone they mean something completely different to what I do when I say it. May be interesting to get people to describe some sound files of different...

    preamp tube question

    Just to clarify, presumably you already have tubes in there already but have one new replacement? What are the current tubes in the positions currently and how old are they?

    Presence control

    Can you get the sound you want from it at those levels?

    Anyone into Martial Arts?

    I'm in a different country altogether I'm afraid, the UK, lol. It's a fascinating art. I chose it over most other ones because it really goes into the physics of what works and why. Hideously complicated to learn in some ways, but you do really end up seeing people as a set of hinges and...

    Anyone into Martial Arts?

    It's a pity really, Mr Van Donk is a really skilled Martial Artist but you really can't learn the art without touching anyone, you have to be able to manipulate the other person's body structure by feel alone and there's no way you can do that from a DVD! Surely he would know this... Bizarre...

    Anyone into Martial Arts?

    I started off with Karate, moved through Judo, Kung Fu (I forget the style) bit of Mui Tai and Mongolian Wrestling before settling on Ninjutsu (with the Bujinkan) that I've been doing for the last... 8 or so years plus recently mixing in some Systema. Nothing like a proper Martial Art for all...

    Question on byoc Overdrive 2: too high a boost?

    Well, to make that clearer (my explanation skills have a habit generally being completely wrongly worded) the Ultra without any kind of OD has about the right level of gain when around 3 O'Clock to max, but it's not really usable, it's quite flubby and ill defined. Reducing the the gain just...

    Question on byoc Overdrive 2: too high a boost?

    It does it both in a clean and distorted module. The Ultra doesn't have anywhere near enough gain and sounds a bit loose without the boost, but with the OD it really tightens up the sound and gives it far more gain... I can turn the module gain down to 12O'Clock or lower with the OD and it...

    Question on byoc Overdrive 2: too high a boost?

    Right, slowly building up my effects chain now I've moved from a POD X3 to an RM100... First proper purchase is a buildyourownclone Overdrive 2, they're crazy cheap and I do like building things, plus I get to paint it however I like! Right, so, plugged it in and all works excellently (to my...

    BULLET knobs and thumbscrews. FS

    :-O That's amazing... Any idea how much a set would be to post to the UK? Do you have the dimensions too? They look huge in the photos (Haven't seen any of those since Clay pigeon shooting with my Dad years ago... one downside of being in the UK)

    Has anyone ditched the mic eliminator on their Randall 4x12

    Lol, almost on cue! Thanks Bruce :-D Where else can you get that kind of input outside the MTS Forum? Awesome.
