1964 Ears In Ear Monitor Review
Soooo.... I needed some In Ear Monitors for my band. Rock N’ Roll Supergroup MySelfishMe if you’re not one of the 280ish lucky Facebook friends we have at the time of writing this post. The need to move to them was piloted by our desire to dump our cabs and make our rig lighter as well as move our band to a click. The big picture for us is eventual light automation, and such synced with our show. As you can imagine, going to something like this from just cab’s screaming up your arse is not only a bit of a [...]
Yamaha Stagepas 600i/400i Summer Namm Review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXdsOq7pg_8 Yamaha Stagepas 600i What's happenin Zombies?? It's been a bit since I've been able to post but I'm back here with a ton of cool stuff after returning from Summer Namm 2013 In Nashville. My first post comes from the Yamaha booth who always has great equipment. Here we checked out the Stagepass 600i personal PA. For starters this thing is KILLER. They demoed this for me while I was there and it is loud and clear. And in a small package that one man shows would love and 2 man shows would probably feel like they're cheating. The [...]
Fractal Audio Axe Fx 2 High Gain Demo Diezel VH4 Das Metall Ibanez RG Giger Demo
Fractal Audio Axe Fx 2 High Gain Demo Diezel VH4 Das Metall Ibanez RG Giger Demo So I'm starting a series for YouTube and this is going to be my first installment. I want to record all of the high gain amp models on my Axe Fx 2. Maybe I will expand to all models, I don't really know yet. Something I would like to do but the net doesn't seem to care about anything other than high gain which is too bad. I'm not going to be scientific about it, because lets face it, what you would do and [...]
Hughes & Kettner Triamp MK II Demo
Hughes & Kettner Triamp MK II Demo. Initially I could have cared less what the thing actually sounded like because it is seriously the coolest looking head on the planet!! But I never really gave it a fair shake because I picked up a 6505+ about the same time and was using that live. I found that for heavier playing this head did much better with a drive pedal in the front. In this case a TS-9 as well as an ISP Decimator. Without it, the head breaks up well at higher gain but the sound tends to squish rather [...]
Peavey 6534+ Orange 4×12 Demo
Here is a quick demo of the Peavey 6534+ played through an Orange 4x12. Good morning world of music type people. As I state in the video the 6534 is basically the 6505 but it uses El34's instead of 6L6's in the power section. Does it make a difference? I think so!! In many cases I think the difference between EL34's and 6L6's is very slight sonically. And more importantly I think that unless you're cranking your amp to the sun you're even farther away from telling a difference. But really in my opinion it’s the pre stage that [...]
