[QUOTE="riffer, post: 1753, member: 171"] Hiya, In the future (near hopefully) I'd like to learn to play guitar (I'm a drummer, and also learning bass now). The preferred tone I'm generally after would be a metal tone. I'm thinking of compiling a rack system, with the RM4 and RT2/50. I'm also considering maybe using an additional pre-amp, possibly the Gainland by Van Weelden (http://www.vanweelden.nl/). However, I'm not sure whether this has MIDI compatibility. Assuming it has (or depending if nearer the time I decide on a different seperate pre-amp) , is it a problem to bypass the RM4 when required? Obviously I don't want to over complicate things, so would you say that this is unnecessary, given the huge range of tones which are obtainable from the different Randall modules? Is it necessary to use additional distortion pedals etc? Also, in your opinions, is it necessary to have a power conditioner, rack tuner etc, or should I just buy a 4 space rack, and leave it at that? Lastly, which modules would you recommend for a metal tone, but also with the ability to play other styles too? Many thanks in advance, riffer. [/QUOTE]
