Great tutorial man, you are a great harp player, and your experience is great too based on the stuff you say. I'm a guitar player myself, just starting with harp, so these advices are a awesome!

PS on thing I wanted to mention is that MIC100/MIC200 preamps don't really have 12AX7 tube, they use modeling. I don't think that it is that important - your sound is awesome through this rig (which is another proof that you are great musician), just wanted to make it clear.

rock on mate

cheers

The Behringer mic100 pre has a 12AX7 tube with no modelling. The mic200 has a modelling feature that allows use of the tubes warmth if diffrent modes. I have both and have tried several tubes in the mic200 and settled for an old mesa tube that has a bit more depth, changing the tube for harp made a diffrence as the gain is pushed hard to make the tube clip. The vamp series of pres does not have a tube and is totally digital, .

Thanks for your kind words and best of luck.

cheers from Brian.

forgive me for being "amp challanged", but Do they make just an amplifier with that modulation and effects stuff built in?

[OZHARP]

Yes they are called KX series and you can see one in the tutorial USING PLAY ALONG EQUIPMENT.

CHEERS BRIAN.

Great stuff man - could you give me an idea of your MIC200 settings ?

Thanks a lot, I saw your 4 volumes. I play old hindi songs on my C - marine band, but I always got a flat sound. And wanted to learn more. You are a very good teacher. Hope to see more of your videos.

Thanks from India

I somehow just made a bad comment....SORRY.

Pressed the wrong key ???

This guy is great and the whole deal is so cool!

Sorry mate, I was under impression that MIC100/200 were "fake" tube preamps (using digital chip+LED diode flashed fake tube) based on the story of a friend of mine who owns one. I was pretty sure he was right.. so again, sorry for putting this wrong info here. Thanks for making me sure about this.

I will continue watching your great videos about harp, rock on mate.
