Members prsalex Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 If I'm standing in front of my amp it's sounds harsh. But when I'm standing next to my amp it's sounds great. Is this normal? And if I should place a mic in front of the speaker do I have the same harsh tone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GCDEF Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 High frequency sounds are more directional than low. When you stand beside it, you don't hear the high frequencies as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dial in your amp with the speaker(s) pointed directly to your ears, not around the corner from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you dial your tone in as the amp actually sounds, you will eliminate that chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
