DeeringAmps

Late to the party, but a very enthusiastic ??’s! t

Listening in the van today, (mids are a “hot mess”), so tough to give any advice as to the mix. I can relate to the “broken speaker” and the background “ringing”. Love the tune and performances. Looking forward to @garybrun’s mix. t

Will miss you!

The son of a son of a sailor is off to margaritaville for good. RIP Jimmy!

$120 for the 2TB (not a "deal" price) t

They’re back! Thanks for all your hard work cleaning this mess up. t

Thanks

Had to let my FXII+ go. I could get lost in it for days! Do as SmallStone said “cycle thru the presets”. If you delve into the parameters it’s “a rabbit hole”; literally. Amazing piece of kit. t The amp is common on Reverb, average price looks like $299. Didn’t search the cabs. There is a two channel w/reverb variant so do a little research…

@Byron Dickens Clearly you are happy with your 2204, as well you should be. I am well versed in pretty much all things Marshall. (Only the 900’s are “lacking” IMNSHO). I build “channel switchers” and they never quite sound “right” until they get to a level where they “breathe”. I’ve yet to find any “master volume” amp that does NOT suffer from the same issue. The “dimed”plexi thru 8 pre rolas is a rare treat (prefer the 20 watt speakers, but to each his own) and the “gold standard” for ME! YMMV. There is a “thump” (for want of a better term) that the plexi gives you that I never get with “modern” amps; but again that’s just me. I would remind you that all tweed and black face Fenders were “under speakered”, as are AC-30’s etc. They all, in my experience, exhibit some degree of “excursion” when cranked. And let’s be honest, most of us run them on “eleven”. So “physics” aside, I’m pretty sure “excursion” is a thing. But again maybe it’s just me? BTW no one has ever accused me of having “golden ears”. Would love to have a brew or two and debate, compare notes, etcetra… So flame away my friend (I have broad shoulders) most of the time your responses here are “spot on”, albeit a bit caustic (many times deservedly so) t

The problem with an attenuator is you take the speaker out of the equation. Great amps are a three legged stool. Preamp, power amp and speaker. “Excursion” is a key to the plexi tone. Yep, perfect example. No excursion and tone is compromised… t

What exactly is it that Mixcraft does that CbB or Studio One don’t? I demoed it, and found results of a “loop back” test disappointing. I mentioned it on the forum back then and either no one noticed or my test was flawed. Does it properly place tracks? (ASIO driver of course) It didn’t for me. Just curious… t

ditto, my nickname in gym class was "snowman"! Kinda tough in SoCal and a significant portion of your buddies are surfers. Suffered some terrible sunburns when I was talked into a "day at the beach". If the sun is shining when I'm dreaming I wake up "burned"; it then blisters and peels and I'm as "white" as when I started... t

So why the question...

My DVA Fifty, 2 x 10" combo (is a channel switcher and reverb) retailed at $3499. I would (reluctantly) build one at that price, but only because I have a couple of cabinets and chassis laying around somewhere. Couldn't get "rich" if I was busting out one, even two every week. Hand wired amps are a "labor of love"; I don't ❤️ the beech no mo. I'd rather spend time in the studio... t

Seems kind of complicated, but if it works. Cake uses the Zoom and Windows the RME, interesting…

Which driver Rex? RME or the Zoom? t

I’ve played numerous ES-339’s. They are NOT created equal. I loved the one I had, the previous owner (who I feel is trustworthy) said he had sifted thru about 20 of them. They can be great, but as they vary so much I would advise you “try” before you buy. t I got it in a trade for a 2003 R9, you know the “We finally got it right” Brazilian board year? what a perfect POS! with some nut work I finally got it to play, but I was never satisfied with it. you think Henry screwed us with “lifetime” updates? That’s nothing compared to the way he handled the guitars. some of the custom shop stuff is great, but buyer beware…. I tried to buy an R9 that was “reliced” by R&S. Maybe the best burst I ever played. As good as any I played on my “big guitar hunts” back in the 70’s. In an original case it would have been indistinguishable from an actual ‘59.

Well yeah, but Baps has the market for excess cornered, eh? t

All Top Shelf! Enjoyed the AI video... t

Stunning Jerry! but you should remind the forum that these photos were shot from your deck! amazing! t

I wish my mixes were this “rough”! Well written , performed, captured and mixed. ?? t

I found this rather Wooktastic! (have I coined a term? I don’t know, we’ll leave it to the forum to decide..,) t i would have left a like & comment over at SC but it hates my iPhone…

You have been “conspicuous” in your absence Jesse. Wondered what you had been up to. ?? t

As Colin said Cakewalk will open any (every) cwp and wrk file you have. All is not lost! t
