I found and picked up an original 2-input BE100 a few weeks ago and I'm absolutely loving the tones out of this amp. My board is 4CM with a TC G-System running 4CM. Since the amp can't switch from BE to HBE, I have everything running into the BE input, the TC switching between Clean and BE set to plexi-ish gain, and a Suhr Koko in Loop 1 that kicks in on lead patches with a ton of boost and a big mid kick. It sounds absolutely killer.
Unfortunately, I'm running into an issue when it comes to switching. If I'm moving from a clean patch to a lead patch, the Koko kicks in about 1/4-1/2 second before the amp switches from Clean to BE, which leads to a big, awful-sounding volume bump that carries through to spillover delay. I've been working around it by tap-dancing and kicking the Koko loop in manually, but it's an annoying workaround.
I've heard the relay in the TC can lag a little, but I don't have the same issue with my PT100 in the same rig which makes me think it's the BE that might be slightly delayed.
Anyone have any thoughts? If I were sure the TC relays were the issue, I'm thinking a RJM Mini Gizmo or Axess GRX4 might solve the issue? Or am I just doomed to tap dancing?
