Sounds great to me Mark, It's certainly there alright.

[Mark Burton]

Thanks Dave - not bad for 'cornflake packet' amp eh ???

[dave robinson]

Out of interest was the amp miked up or is there a DI?

[Mark Burton]

It was miked - the only output is for an extension cab

[dave robinson]

Did you put the Mike down the centre or to the side?

[Mark Burton]

Interesting ... I miked this further back than I do normally (dunno why ... trying to capture the fullness of the sound I think) the mic was about 6" (honest )from the cab, just to left of centre and just below mid point -have not moved mic stand or amp since recording .

Hi Mark

An impressive looking and sounding amp.

You tried an interesting mic placement for the recordings - I must give it a go. Incidentally what is the mic you're using?

Cheers.

Tony

Thanks Mark, may I recommend that you try the mike a little more off centre , at the edge of the speaker - you may lose the fierceness (is that a real word ? ) of the treble.

You can use the Extension Speaker socket as a DI output provided that

a) The Extension Speaker socket is in parallel with the loudspeaker (not series) (but parallel is normal).

b You connect using a DI box with a transformer which isolates input from output. (this is also normal)
