yep, that Boogie cab with the celestions would really help. don't count on the crappy Line6 speaker in the Flextone II combo! it SUCKS! it's like a terrible woof- I had to use an EQ pedal in the effects loop to really boost the mids and trebles to the max and take out the bottom end as the...

Probably because there are alot of Recto users out there that have VERY crappy settings........... and alot of people hear the Recto abused like that. And, what also really bugs me, is how all the guitar magazines use the Recto sound on the Line6 & Digitech GNX stuff so much, for practically...

Today I tried the same settings with the Flextone's "Brit Hi Gain" (Marshall JCM800 model) and in fact it was quite good as well. The tone was a little more tighter on the lows (very tight, I liked that), had the roar ("raughh" like an angry dog), but the mids weren't as emphasised. What I...

yep, that's the one! Soldano X88R preamp, as the "Modern Hi Gain" on the Line6 Flextone II (which is what I currently have). it sounds great, one of the few models that are actually usable on that thing. It managed to get the tone I'm looking for in an MTS module. Which I think the XTC will do...

I tried making a tone that had alot of low-end & low-mid girth that would roar, and the Soldano model on my crappy modelling amp was the best at creating that tone (the Rectified had a different midrange voicing which kinda wrecked the effect). When I get around to posting the clip you'll...

Thanks, I'll definitely take a closer look at the XTC. I'm not too familiar with Bogner amps........ As I said earlier, the module/tones I'm looking for should compliment the Mesa/Boogie MarkIV. The MarkIV itself can be set heaps of different ways, but the special things about Boogie amps...

Would the XTC be suitable? I heard a sample and sounds good. If anyone has some advice, PLEASE respond, thank you.

That's a good idea, a good alternative reason. If the reason is that Mesa/Boogie are suing companies for using the word "Rectifier", then I think that's silly. The story behind the "recto" name is that Boogie offered two types of power RECTIFIERS (valve or solid-state diodes) in their amps...

I agree. Just now I'm listening to your samples (great stuff!) and the Ultra model is like a Dual Rectifier with an aggressive MarkIIC+/MarkIV trebly quality to it, when you play that particular part (1:13) saying the Ultra has a "Boogie scooped overly-saturated" tone. I like it 8) , even...

hi Dave! I just joined today, in search for info for the MTS gear I'm gonna buy soon.....

Last night I came up with an awesome tone on my Line6 Flextone II combo modelling amp, to try and develop the tone I want to match the Mesa/Boogie MarkIV amp head I'll be buying in the future. The MarkIV is going to have a rather sizzling, razor-sharp crunchy aggressive seething distortion...
