"You have to be careful with these gay knobs" - very true. If you want to keep your low end tight and not flabby - stay away from gay knobs. :)

[SmelMyFinger]

Its the kind of thing you don't want to have to learn the hard way.

[moucon]

Sick of you saying "flabby". We get it - its' FLABBY. Yeah. Instead of vague assertions why not study the schematic and tell us what is really going on - or better yet PLAY SOMETHING so we can hear it.

[SmelMyFinger]

These are not "vague assertions". The Mesa/Boogie Mark amps can be hard to configure at first, and this is a rare attempt at trying to explain some of the chemistry at play between the dials. Also, as with any Mesa Mark amp, some settings will produce a FLABBY low end, and it is important to know how to avoid this for certain tones. It was well worth mentioning.

I'm sorry it wasn't good enough for you. When I remake the whole video to make you happy I will consider your input.

The low end seems to get flabby a lot.

[SmelMyFinger]

My ass is flabby too.

[EDIshames]

This is my fav amp of all time!

Is the effects loop pre- or post-reverb?

[iswad420]

can you gig with this?

@joecruzguitar I used a Roland footswitch with 3 footswitches (FS3 I believe) and it works fine for this purpose. The Studio isn't a MIDI preamp but does have a stereo effects loop that works very well. If the rack units are MIDI you can use it to control them processing the StuPre's sound.

[aliensporebomb]

@derHuckepackmann Yes! It's built like a tank and once it's racked it's solid as a rock.

How can i change the studiopreamp channels ? I can do it with any mesaboogie footswitch (amp) ? Or, if i use some fx rack effects, can i change the studio preamp channel with midi program? Or use with 4-cable method? Many tnx for any help. Cheers, Joe
