    What is a TV module?

    Just accidentally saw this thread. Sorry guys, I didn't mean to offend. There were just some mentions of "as I understand" in the comments which I took to mean that everyone wasn't completely for sure on what the T/V module was. So I went to the horse's mouth and they verified everything you...

    Preamp tubes in the Egnater modules and Mod amps?

    Wow, a better tone out of the SL2... hmm ok gotta try that :) What do the modules usually ship with new? Also, how do you know what is V1 and V2 on the modules? I just did a quick scan of them and didn't see anything standing out as which was which.

    Christmas in July !

    Wow, nice info in this thread. I've got the VX, T/D and this new "X" module on route to me right now. Hoping to have them on or before Wednesday. The X module is probably out of my gain range, but the description of it sounded so cool I thought I would try it. I've got the T/V module right...

    Preamp tubes in the Egnater modules and Mod amps?

    I had a bad tube in my T/V module. That was my issue I think. It was an intermittent thing. I swapped out the Sovteks that where in with with some NOS RCA 12AX7s and things sounded a little better and the weirdness I was having last week was gone. The SL2 has a Sovtek and EH 12AX7 in, but it...

    Preamp tubes in the Egnater modules and Mod amps?

    Absolutely, I am loving the thing at home. I really dig the SL2, very cool module. I kinda like the T/V too, but I don't think its going to be my clean module ultimately. I am really interested in the Vox and T/D modules that are on the way and they are sending me a new one called "X" that is...

    Preamp tubes in the Egnater modules and Mod amps?

    I'm definitely not new to the crazy tube hunt. I've got a nice stash of NOS pres and power tubes laying around and have been swapping them out in all my wacky boutique amp endeavors over the last decade. But some amps just don't respond much to tube changes, mostly newer amps. I was just...

    Preamp tubes in the Egnater modules and Mod amps?

    Has anyone played with swapping preamp tubes in the various Egnater modules or the preamp tubes in the Mod amps themselves? Do they come stock with the EH? Has anyone tried anything else? Thanks.

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    I doubt I will do the 4CM with this setup, just in/out in the loop of the Mod50. I use mostly time-based effects and even the wah didn't sound too bad in the loop. The Uni-vibe was a little iffy though. I don't use any of the amp models or stomp boxes really, so just a couple of cables in and...

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    Yeah I will eventually have to go to 20 footers, but I wanted to make sure it was the unit and not the cable that was giving the problem if there was one from the get go. Running multiple 20 foot cables is always a compromise, but they have to be made when playing live of course.

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    That's a bummer. Could it be a cable length thing? I was using short 6 inch George L cables for my test purposes. Once I got the patch and output levels dialed in correctly, I could pull the return cable and not tell if the GT-8 was in the loop of the Mod50 or not.

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    I just ran my GT-8 through the series loop on my Mod50 and it sounded fine. I adjusted the level on the GT-8 to about 60% or so and that seemed to do it. I tested it by setting up a "bypassed" setting on the GT-8 and then pulled and put it back in the loop until everything sounded exactly the...

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    This is great info, thanks. How do you connect the GT8 in 4CM mode using the Ebtech line level shifter?

    Need some help dialing in my Egnater Mod50 for live use

    Hehe, AC voltage. Yeah, we are clumping a lot of stuff on the same plug due to lack of plugs and too much gear :) Next week I'll try to get the Mod50 on a less cluttered power source and see if that helps. Also, the T/V really isn't my fave clean tone. I've got the T/D and Vox modules...

    *SOLD* Egnater Dual Channel Deluxe Module

    Thinking about it. I've got a T/D on the way. Do you know how the Deluxe and T/D differ?

    Need help retubing tonight - Which 6L6? (Mod50)

    Little feedback here, I didn't dig the JJ's so much. Kind of cold sounding. I had them biased at like 32mV I think. I put the Winged C's in and they felt a lot better to me. I put them in the 30-31 mark. I still want to give the Mullards a whirl. I put them in my other amp and they sounded...

    Effects recommendation for Randall RM50: GMajor or Boss GT 8

    okstrat, how (if at all) do you use your GT-8 with you Mod50? Do you use the 4CM (Four cable method) or just put it in the loop? Which loop do you use? Thanks.

    Need some help dialing in my Egnater Mod50 for live use

    I think this was a power issue. I got home and set my usual amp up at stage volumes and set the Mod50 to match it, and didn't need to use these extreme settings to match the volumes. It seemed to mostly affect the T/V module though with I thought was odd. Is that indicative of anything? So...

    Need help retubing tonight - Which 6L6? (Mod50)

    It's modern Christian rock for the most part with some non-Christian rock tunes thrown in occasionally.

    Need some help dialing in my Egnater Mod50 for live use

    Whew, had a rough time at the gig today. Everything I thought I knew about dialing in the Mod50 went out the door on stage. It took a long while to get it close to dialed in, much longer than I would have hoped. I ended up having barely enough clean headroom to hang with the band and had to...
