Members ben_allison Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 however that has to do with the Orange's clean channel having no eq Which Orange are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BTBAM Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 They said there are some things that seem lacking Which Orange are you using? Rocker 30, open back 1x12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ben_allison Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 Thanks for the deets! One thing that totally rocked my world with my Rockerverb: I felt the clean channel, even though it has an EQ, was just boring... no chime, no harmonics, just cardboard. And the drive channel went from "not enough" to "fizz." No grunt, no tightness. Well, I tried juicing the front end with a boost/od. I use a Barber LTD. Let me tell you, smacking the first preamp tube changed EVERYTHING. There are more dynamics. Notes are fuller and chimier. The Dirty channel is now totally tight and thick, with no fizz whatsoever. I highly recommend a nice boost as the last thing in your chain. Even an EQ pedal for some sculpting might help. It'll make all the difference.

It'll make all the difference. Yea, that's why I'm hoping both the added little reverb, and the boost from the reverberator helps in not needing an EQ, just using that boost. I know when I used the boost in my regular boards, it really made a jump in the clarity and quality, even if it was just a little boost. results will follow after Saturday using it.

Members ben_allison Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 Yeah. I'm thinking of installing one of these in my Rockerverb for this very reason: http://www.missionamps.com/turbojax.shtml Up do 17db of pure clean boost, and one less pedal to worry about!

Not to get too OT, but I scoffed when I first saw that, BUT on closer inspection, its actually kind of brilliant! How many folks have an input they never or rarely use? And having the trim pot lined up with the jack so you can tweak the boost with a micro screwdriver? Man, I'm impressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members drasp Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 well, since I already need to add reverb too, I won't need anything like that. 2in1 boost+rvb Unless someone built an input jack with a clean boost AND a Belton Box. . .OR - even better, an input jack with a FREAKING M9!!!

Members BTBAM Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 All I wish for this amp, since I can add a reverb on top no problem, is that it had an fx loop. modable? :poke: drasp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really my bag/area of expertise (hell, I've never even owned an amp w/ a loop!), but probably a worthy goal! One of the boys here or @ HM can surely hook that the F up.

Members drasp Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 $5 says it's just glued on!!! PM me for PayPal details. That {censored} is 4 Real. I got gut shots to back it up if need be. Rich - looks nice inside there. The switches are a definite improvement - still a lot of plastic, but they're not going to fail in any of the ways the old stompbox modeler spring actuators would die. . . And that red PCB, Yum!!!
