I think I used Jam Points to bring it down. Though I may have forgotten to apply the JP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno de Souza Lino Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Keep in mind that the graphics for the Mesa Mark models in AT 5 are literary copy pasta all over the face of the amp with channels labeled wrong. Ignore what I said if they fixed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Russ Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 This package goes to show how far IK has come in terms of modeling. The Mark III models that have been part of the package since version 3 are nearly useless. The Mark III in the MB collection on the other hand has some really good sounds in it.

And the Mark stuff is the only thing worth it in the pack. Everybody has Dual Rectifier emulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regretted buying it very soon after. Never could dial in a good sound with it live. I ended up using it clean with a rack mount FX unit. I used a Strat back then and they don't seem to play well with those Mesa amps so maybe that was the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They work well with active humbuckers for metal head-banging genres, though. What's your favorite amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno de Souza Lino Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Dual Rectifiers are not scaled correctly to work at 240v either and it's not uncommon for their output transformers to blow up when they're plugged into that voltage. Triple Rectifiers are better. More headroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They work well with active humbuckers for metal head-banging genres, though. What's your favorite amp? I sold my Mesa and bought a cheap little Fender Champion 100. It's a bare bones modelling amp. That thing sounds better than any amp I have ever owned. I love it. It's a 2 x 12 combo 100 Watt modelling amp with a few hardware knobs for selecting the models and effects and that's it. It sounds really good with my Strat, Tele, and Sheraton II hollow body. Here's a link to YouTube vid about it. Ironically it's by a guy named Shane who also happens to play left handed. Hah. I'm right handed but play guitar left handed. It's a curse. For recording I just run my guitar through the 2 ART units in my signature and use Guitar Rig Pro 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluzdog Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 5 hours ago, Soundwise said: What's your favorite amp? My '67 Super Reverb and a 70's champ that runs a close second. I have a 70's Ampeg V-4 that needs an output transformer that I want to put back in service. It was awesome back the day. I still have the first amp I bought. It's a 60s Ampeg Reverberocket 2. It has sentimental value but I can't say I ever loved it. That said I gonna pick up a Mark Five 35 combo soon. My wife thinks I have too many amps, I think she has too many shoes. ?

Mine is fine that I get rid of a piece of gear, then buy something new. If I suggest the same for her shoes, she looks at me like I'm crazy... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
