Re: 2024 Monkeymatic Liverpool (nontraditional)

Really, the tone relies on 2 picoFarads? Your ears are better than mine Miles. I can hear the difference between 50 and 47.. but only because the types are vastly different. I tried carbons all the way down to 22p and SM to I think 82p. Anything larger than the next smaller value sounds brash by an...

Re: 2024 Monkeymatic Liverpool (nontraditional)

Keep messing around....

50p is too big. 47p is awesome. Use Lemco dogbone. So smooth.

Ten Over, the LP has weird eq setup. That is also a 1M pot. It is the reason the mids are dipped 200hz below anything else.

(and defines every question about the mids)

Re: What do you believe regarding the sound of passive components?

Literally this is what phase flipping discovers. Everything will null except for what changed. You bounce that and you can see it with your eyes.

I think more negative feedback.

Re: What do you believe regarding the sound of passive components?

Distortion.. how does your amp growl. Listen to Nirvana All Apologies pre-roll. You hear tape, but you also hear the machine noise of several open tracks. When it plays on the radio I shiver. DSOTM in the most dynamic spaces has a different machine noise. It is not over-biased and it is a different ...

Re: What do you believe regarding the sound of passive components?

Caps, not resistors. mostly correct .. but MF can also deteriorate sound Misunderstood. The TS caps will almost always react differently because of the insanity that is induced right there. A cranked plexi with a couple dB boost. A scientific instrument. Too many caveats and too many unargued varia...

Re: What do you believe regarding the sound of passive components?

Electronic audio devices create a new virtual space. Control the program, control the playback end of the rig (remote miced cab, even better; load box and direct) change your tone caps for the second pass. Flip the phase and fold the tracks to mono. The difference is what is left in the monitors. Yo...

Re: I'm jumping ship.

Well, modern times have now left their mark here too... For me, these digital amplifiers are like a vegan soy schnitzel, somehow reasonable but also not the real thing... Professionally I am also on the silicon and processor side, for me the tube amplifiers (which are actually the opposite of reaso...

Re: I'm jumping ship.

It's a Roland Cube 20 for grownups.. ok.. "the elderly".. fine. This is only *not* someone's grandfather's amp because I don't have kids. :) First thing I noticed was there isn't even one dB of clean bleeding through in even the dirtiest patches. Other devices have a direct tinkling sound the distor...

I'm jumping ship.

We goin single device and a controller. Neural and my first *new* guitar in maybe 20 years. :)

I am turning vintage Marshalls into technology and gAIn.

10 years ago I was on the right path. Remember when I sold the collection? Never was sad. This should be easy.

QUAD CORTEX AWAY!!
