I'm with you on the lower wattage. I'm pretty much done with 100 watters. Can't tell you the last time I ran my XTC on full power. I don't know one venue in this city where they make any sense unless it's a big theater gig. Even then your probably getting a monitor mix. 50 watts cranked isnt...
I did not do anything as of yet. Jorg at Bogner told me they have a prototype XTC with 6V6's and he said he prefered it, but no one had ordered one. That was about a week or two ago. Not sure I wanna use my 101B as a guinea pig as they have to swap the transformer and I'd have to ship it out...
I was under the impression that you either had the B (EL34) or the A (6L6) power sections for the XTC. After seeing the new Wizard MC 25 and knowing the sound of the MC50 it got me to thinking "I wonder if an XTC could handle 6V6's and what would it sound like?" Lo and behold on the Bogner...
If I could get my XTC 101B modded so the parallel effects loop is as beautiful as my Groove Tubes Soul-O-75, if the Green (clean) Channel was modded to be the Blue Channel in Plexi Mode, leave the Blue Channel stock for solos and mod the Red Channel to sound just like Wizard Modern Classic lead...
I may on a few tunes use more than 6, yes, though that would be rare. More than that is me having to label the Mastermind. I have more than 25 presets over all and sticking 5 little labels per button would be a bit much. I have a shitty memory and I sing on just about every song, so the last...
If you have read this in another forum I apologize in advance, but I'm trying to get an idea of what to do as fast as possible.
I'm trying to finish this pedalboard build and thinking, "If I am ever going to want more than 5 presets this is the time to do it."
I'm using 3 pieces of RJM gear...
I am asking not because I want to take my RJM units out of the chain, but because I am going to need the normally open switches that the Rocktron unit has and the RJM Mini Gizmos do not. I wanna keep my pedals in the RJM unit and just switch things on and off with the Rocktron. So does anyone...
Not sure if anyone has used both but if so any info would be great. I dig the sound of my MPX1's. But dealing with the beat/ratio programming vs. the ease of use and display of ms/bpm that my M-One has made me think using a D-Two would make things easier. I was looking at the D2 but using the...
I'm really talking about syncing devices that have no MIDI functions at all. Just tap tempo. I'm talking about a box that would send a pulse to sync them all together. Like a mechanical master tap tempo footswitch but instead of just the tap switch you could also program preset tempos before...
First off, I want to apologize if you have run across this post in another forum. I wanted to reach as many people as possible who may have found something like this. Or perhaps, a builder might come across this post and propose making something like this.
I dig my rack effects. I really do...
Got an email from a fella named Stan at Fender. This is what he told me:
The footswitch connector should be a five-pin DIN, and will look like a standard MIDI connector. The pin functions are as follows:
Pin 1: Ground
Pin 2: +5 volts (used to power LEDs in the footswitch)
Pin 3: Mean Channel...
I have tried for the past 4 months to find the pin schematic for this amp's 5 pin foot switch input. I've emailed everyone from Fender to Myles Rose to Aspen Pittman with no luck on the info I need.
Ron at RJM can make me a cable so I can switch the amp channels/loop from my RJM-16 but I need...
Zach, I am going to be integrating my rack effects into my rig. I want to just use the balanced XLR in's and out's (my T.C. unit doesn't even have 1/4" jacks) I have an RJM unit on the way. I was wondering, did you have Bob wire the connections from your switcher as TS (unbalanced) to XLR...
The signal flow is going to be like this:
Guitar to RG16 > Loop 5 out/in to an MXR line driver that feeds a volume pedal > Loop 6 out to a Dr.Z RxES > Loop 7 out to a Dr.Z Stangray > Loop 8 out to a Bogner XTC (I am under the impression that Loops 5-8 are isolated thus having the amp switching...
I'm kinda in a pickle here. I have been waiting for my tax return to come in to get an RJM RG-16 to switch (and at times blend) two heads and use the rest of the loops in the EFX loop of one of the heads. A while ago I tried out a Lehle pedal (the RED one) and it sounded great. I know there...
