    Normal for Herbert MK2 feel hot?

    I have a Herbert MK2 and it seems that the front and back grills get *very* warm and after playing a show (three 1 hour sets) even the top of the amp shell (wood and handle) are Very warm, even hot feeling. This normal for the Herbert? Amp sounds fine, no noticeable issues and power tubes are...

    Diezel serial numbers

    I just acquired a Herbert MK2. Absolutely wonderfully built and amazing sounding amp :) Serial is 001/1954. It would be great to know when it was made and who it was originally shipped to. Thanks!

    Torpedo Live line out - risk of damage if phantom power on?

    can't seem to find anything "official" from Two-Notes in regards to phantom power and the Torpedo Live line out jack. When using the Torpedo Live in a club situation, using the line out (1/4 inch balanced to XLR cable), is there any worry that if phantom power is turned on there could be damage...

    Recorded a cover band demo with my JJ-100...

    In a new cover band project and recorded a demo with my JJ-100. Signal chain is just a Les Paul (with bare Knuckle Black dogs) straight into the JJ-100 (no pedals etc..) then into a 2x12 with vintage 30's. Mic'd with an old Sennheiser 421. Gain was only on about 3-ish maybe 4 tops...

    JJ-100 in the wild....

    Got to fill in with a Foo Fighters tribute this past weekend at a cool venue. Got some live audio (board mix mixed with room mics). JJ-100 is in the right channel (slide guitar side) though the guitars really aren't panned that very hard Left/Right. The Marshall on the other side didn't sound...

    Will Powergrid 10 power RJM Mastermind PCB?

    Curious if the new Powergrid 10 will power the RJM Mastermind PBC pedalboard switcher? I know the stated specs on the powergrid 10 (9v @ 350mA) don't meet the requirements of the RJM PBC, but i also know a lot of times the posted specs on most power supplies are on the conservative side. The RJM...

    Can you use BlendIR to tweak the EQ of an existing IR?

    I was just curious if you could use BlendIR to tweak the EQ of an existing 3rd party IR? I have some that are kind of bright and I'd like to see if they can be adjusted by using the BlendIR 31 band EQ. I haven't seen any good tutorials on how to actually use the BlendIR, specifically what...

    Best (or good) USB audio interface for Torpedo Live....

    I've been using an older Focusrite Saffire 6 to record into Reaper on my laptop. I noticed that, especially the factory IR's but even the Ownhammer IR's i have seem to have this un-natural high end to them and sounds really 1 dimensional (flat, no depth, a crispness on the upper high end that...

    Using Torpedo Live AND a mic'd cab at the same time?

    Any dangers of any latency phasing or general timing issues with using a Torpedo Live direct AND having your speaker cab mic'd? A lot of people use DI boxes like the Palmer PDI-01 and mix it with their mic'd cab. No latency with the Palmer, but wasn't sure if there was any noticeable latency...

    JJ-100 in the wild....

    One of my Tribute bands, this one is STP, got to play a decent sized venue (800 capacity) last week and we got some live audio. Camera man was back by the board and had a stereo condenser recording to a Tascam portable recorder. So this is a "LIVE in the room" recording, not a board mix. Audio...

    Torpedo Live low output volume?

    I've been using a Torpedo LIVE in a live situation (not home/studio) for a while now and it's very common for me to hear from the FOH guys the signal they get is very low and they have to gain it up much more than most other DI's. Is that normal with the Torpedo LIVE? Typical settings : Input...

    JJ-100 using loop changes the sound....

    Started noticing that whenever i have anything in the loop, the sound of the amp is changed a bit. It sounds almost like it gets slightly distorted (not in a good way, almost like it's slightly overloading if that makes sense). No volume change, just a sound change and not really for the better...

    Diff between Butterslax 412 170w cab and Vintage 412 cab...

    Can anyone tell me the difference (if any) between the new Butterslax 412 170w cab and the Vintage 412 170w cab? Other than the grill cloth and a couple pound difference in weight, the specs I've been able to find seem to be identical. Same speakers, overall dimensions etc... I'm curious...

    First gig with JJ-100...... :(

    Just did my first gig (cover gig) with the JJ-100 and was pretty disappointed with the "amp in the room" sound on stage i was getting at stage volume. It sounded thin (heavily upper mid/highs focused), lacked body and felt like there was really nothing happening below 700-ish Hz. Bottom/body was...

    JJ-100 JBE separate vol/gain mod?

    I've seen a couple pics floating around the web where a JJ-100 was modded to have the JBE switch turned into essentially a 3rd channel. Mod showed a separate volume and gain control for the JBE "channel" and it was even foot switchable. Is that a mod that is available? If so, ballpark cost...
