    Great Eastern FX - XO Crossover.

    in Effects

    Posted · Edited by Stofferson

    Love this, better footprint than the KMA Tyler, but as I have up to 3 drives on my board and I know at least one flips the phase, which will cancel out the lows, plus then you gotta get a decent comp to chuck in the low loop too.

     

    Are there mini phase flipper pedals like the Saturn works buffer you can chuck after a phase flipping pedal?  . . . 

     

    Great on paper, if your using it for maybe 1 drive pedal, but expensive just for that, and there are a fair few out there now with decent clean blends / crossovers built in.

    schalltechnik 04 - MINI-HP-VONG - HPF Pedal - *SOLD*

    in Effects For Sale

    Posted · Edited by Stofferson
    Sold

    For sale:

    Used, has Velcro applied, no original box but will be packaged accordingly.

    Great little boom tamer.

    Will take actual photos when I get home from work, but good condition and does what it says it does.

     

    Website spiel below:

     

    MINI-HP-VONG is the little brother of VONG-Filterung.

    It consists of an 1MΩ input buffer and an adjustable High-Pass Filter (2nd order; -12dB/Oct.).

    The cut-off frequency can be adjusted continuously between 30 Hz and 140 Hz.

    The MINI-HP-VONG is a tool to adjust your sound to the room you’re playing in.

    Boomy room acoustics can be mitigated. To do that, just set the pot as high as needed, but as low as possible to keep your low-end.

    Also it can protect your speakers from subsonic frequencies produced by suboctave octavers or playing technique (e.g. Slap/Pop/Thumbing)

    Additionally it is also nice to drastically cut the bottom end with the MINI-HP-VONG and then add a bass boosting pedal to your chain.

    That way you’ll get a tight but super punchy sound.

     

    Specs: 

    Enclosure:| A (38 mm x 90 mm x 30 mm)

    Jacks: | “top-mount”

    Bypass Type: | no bypass – always on

    Input Voltage:| 9V (centre negative), (24V max.)

    Current-Draw:| 5mA @ 9V

    Agree. It is only EQ at the end of the day but it’s a useful addition. 

    Wouldn't mind it on the ABM's or as just a stand alone DI, that would be ideal

    Barefaced 210st questions.

    I have 2 - BF 210's

     

    For rehearsals I just use one, against a Marshall 412 and loud drummer.

     

    We play hard rock / grunge / stoner stuff, where the bass is quite prominent. 

    The right amp and setting and your laughing.

     

    In comparison, prior to this I had an Ashdown Neo 210 for rehearsals and although that was a good little cab, quite directional, and had to have it sat vertical to get a decent pull.

     

    The BF 210 is more akin to other brands 410's. It goes louder, deeper and disperses better. I can keep it horizontal and not have to worry about not hearing it.

    Awesome pedal.

     

    Reel saturation, can go warm to full fuzzy goodness, with 3 different clipping stages. 

     

    No OG box but will be secure.

    Velcro on bottom.

     

    With 3 drive pedals already I have no room and got bills coming up.

    Trace Elliot amps aren't inherently scooped at all, not unless you engage the pre-shape switch (which admittedly though is what many associate with the classic Trace sound. But it definitely isn't to me).

     

    Personally I love the way the old Trace Elliot amp sounds without that switch engaged, very punchy, and full but clear tone.

     

    And I am one of those people who hates scooped mids.

     

    With the pre-shape button engaged though it sounds like a wet fart.

     

    But absolutely glorious tone, if you just leave the pre-shape switch alone.

     

    Hard agree!

    Sandberg TM4 - Pick up change?

    in Repairs and Technical

    Posted

    Thanks both

     

    Yeah I've got emgs in my corvette albeit a jazz set VVT, so this is my first experience with an MM style humbuck and a single coil with a full active preamp.

     

    AHH I've used elixirs for years and everything else feels weird to me now. 

     

    I understand sticking some emgs in I'd have to get one of the preamps also.

     

    I was looking at alternative Delano humbuckers, I believe the one currently in is Alnico magnets which gives it that distinct tone so maybe a straight swap with a non Alnico Delano would be easier. Hesitate to open it all up until I'm certain though. 

     

    I'll keep investigating, I've got an EQ pedal to play with too so that might help

    Sandberg TM4 - Pick up change?

    in Repairs and Technical

    So few weeks into owning my Sandberg TM4 and although it sounds great at home, I just cant get it to sit right with the band.

     

    I don't know much about Delano's but long story short they are a bit too hifi to play nice in the mix, read few threads dotted about online with suggesting similar.

     

    Its two band preamp(bass and treble/tone when passive), switch for single coil / humbucker on the MM style bridge pickup, balance control and master volume/push pull for active passive.

     

    I'm after less sparkly top end and more low mid range punch.

     

    Ideal world I'm a fan of EMG's but I don't think I could drop in a set without getting an EMG preamp too.

     

    would an alternative Humbucker drop in and onto the preamp easy?

     

    Anyone else done this?

    Hey all, any more thoughts, experiences or acquisitions of this amp in the last 12 months? It's piqued my interest, but noone seems to carry stock. ✌️

    I keep thinking this will be the next purchase, but honestly I reckon now I have your old two10's the ABM 1200 4 ohms a side would be ideal! mwahahaha.

     

    Seen a few knocking about in the wild though, although my 600 has never left me wanting
