The new Trace Elliot TE-1200, if it ever gets released, has dual band compression on it
-
Love everything about this
-
Sounds bang on to me 😀
-
Never mind the speaker, what’s that bottle of wine like? 😜 Ahem. As ever excellent work and look forward to seeing all the other info appear
-
Ooooh. You’re only a few miles up the road from me. This could be problematic 😅 -
Not as bad as the ABM but not as quiet as my Glock…
-
Haha I saw your same comment on that picture of the new Little Bastard 2N on Facebook 😆
-
You know your rehearsal rooms! It's a great place isn't it
-
Nice one! They really are great cabs 🙂
-
This is the loud rig. It’s really rather a lot better than I am:

Preamps - Where is yours in your chain and how do you put it to use?
Merton replied to AinsleyWalker's topic in Effects
My preamp is also my DI box, so it's the end of the chain after the FX. Same as @fretmeisterit is used as a preamp instead of the one on the amp. Or as well as, if I need to tailor the onstage sound differently from the FOH. -
Good point, I don’t like that hat either

Zeppelin Symphonic tonight at the Palladium with mini Mert and a couple of friends. The Middlenight Men with The Hot Damn! in Camden on Thursday. It’s been a while, nice to be back on it.

Yep all my Ashdown amps have fans which sound like jet engines taking off. My Glockenklang has a fan so quiet you have to put your ear right up to it to hear it, even after a 3 hour rehearsal. Should be something they can sort by choosing a better fan tbh.

There’s a WT550 in the classifieds at the moment 🤓

DI or Line Out ? Ashdown ABM 600 EVO iv - A Hah!!!
Merton replied to redbandit599's topic in Amps and Cabs
Definitely sounds like a DI issue. Email Ashdown, they’ll sort you out -

Merton replied to redbandit599's topic in Amps and Cabs
Was there any tonal difference through the DI when you switched the various sections in or out? -
That’s a cool little story!
-
Yep. It’s a moot point either way as it’s highly unlikely I’ll ever need that much air moving, it’s a bit…. overkill 😆 But as you rightly point out there are different options should the need arise
-
I know, and it’s highly unlikely I’ll do it. I was just observing 😉 Switching the Two10 to 4 ohms and running with a single One10 is the most sensible solution if I need to move lots of air.
-
I’ve just realised I’m a donut. I can run all the cabs with the Glock in 2.67 ohm mode - just use the Two10S in 12 ohm mode rather than 4. This makes a 3 ohm total load and all the air ever will be moved. If there’s an earthquake near Gatwick soon, I’m sorry.
-
Yes, yes it would
-
If I add feet yeah - the port thingy will be firing up but can't see that being an issue...
-
Yep - been talking to Alex about it. It's not the easiest fix because the grille isn't symmetrical, but I'll come up with a plan somehow... 🤓

Tens; a pair of One10s and a mint Two10S I snagged from Facebook thanks to a little investigative work from @eude. The idea being that my new Glock can do 2.67ohms, so I’ll run a single One10 (8 ohms) and the Two10 in 4 ohms when I need to move that much air 😁
