    Got a shipment of the new EL34BG

    I got reply from Peter S. and everything should be OK. Now we will just wait for the tubes to arrive from the distant land. I will gladly post my findings on these tubes, but Im pretty sure that our beloved "Chief Executive of Tone" has already made strong testing on these.

    Equalizer

    I tried MXR 10-band EQ with my VH4 and it worked well. I prefer it after the preamp, because it has much more radical effect than if used before the preamp stage. ...but to be honest, I absolutely find no use for it with this amp.

    Got a shipment of the new EL34BG

    Im facing time to retube the VH4 power plant. Last gig I already hit one red light (tube fault). I have gone through very many different power amp tubes and I could try something new again. So, are these Ruby EL34BeeGees available in Europe? Thanks. EDIT: mistype

    8 ohm or 4 ohm load for VH4?

    8 Ohm, but I consider the difference to be very marginal.

    damage to VH4 if running while not connected to cabinet

    Glad to hear your amp is working again. 2. If you mean the fuses in back panel, these are not for the channels but one of each tube.

    I have decided to ask all of you for help.

    My bands other guitar player uses ENGL Invader. Very thick sounding beast!

    V30 instead of Tone Tubby and TT Diffusor

    Personally I would not install the TT diffusors, but that is not a recommendation just opinion. Of course some people like them alot, but I think it depends also what kind of sounds you are after. Those people who I have met and are using the diffusors are usually more "traditional" -type of...

    I have decided to ask all of you for help.

    I really love my Mako MAK2 so I would recommend that, but I do not know how it will suit Herbert. I drive it simultaneously with VH4 and it works great. I really love the sound and feel of that amp...or actually both of them...but different way. V. - Do you know how Juggernaut's Mako is modded...

    VH4 Bias readings....

    To me it seems that the problem is in the new tubes and their matching, because the old quarted works fine. You need to check this from someone more qualified than I am, but I think that if you use the tubes with pairwise "non balanced" current readings there will be no potential problems for...

    VH4 Bias readings....

    Does the same happen if you change the order of the tubes in the quartet? If the mismatched reading follows a particular tube the problem is then in the not-that-well-matched tube. If the mismached reading stays in the same tube position/socket even though you inserted different tube in the...

    Serial/Parallel loop...... once and for all

    Thanks for the specifications Till. I was in hurry and did not dare to write the long detailed answer here at work. :D In some units you have analog hard-bypass as well so there is also unconverted signal present. Usually this is only done by relays on thus is either full on or off, but...

    Serial/Parallel loop...... once and for all

    As you said yourself "at least some of your signal is ADA converted". Some of your signal is processed, but in the serial loop all of your signal will be processed. :thumbsup: 100% wet means, that the signal going through your unit in the parallel loop will be converted and processed 100%...

    Cant get the Ground Control Pro and VH-4 working....

    I don't want to sound rude, but Im pretty sure that you are doing something wrong. I control my VH4 (+ other equipment) with GCP and everything is working extremely well. Recently I wrote here short instructions how to program GCP with VH4 or Herbert (see link bellow)...

    diezel VH4 vs boogie mark 5

    I have a Diezel VH4 and Mesa Mark V -combo. Both are wonderful amps capable of many extremely great tones. Peronally I find VH4 easier to dial in the "perfect" tone for my purposes. Also the loops are better in VH4 and having the 4th channel is a great advantage. Im using mainly 7 and 8-string...

    Volume 2 control via MIDI on diezel herbert/vh4

    Last night I checked how I configured my presets and I remembered wrong. I have done them with PCs not with CCs. I apologize the misinformation I suggested. If Diezels do not understand CCs I think something should be done to this thread. viewtopic.php?f=14&t=32940&start=0

    Volume 2 control via MIDI on diezel herbert/vh4

    Really? :confused: I guess I need to check my GCP for the mute, channel insert and send2 patches again.
