My first RECTO tone test!!
- Thread starter ATLA
- Start date
Of course this got my attention 
Sounds pretty good dude, super ballsy, but also super muffled; what cab were you using? Either way, definitely get closer to the dustcap, and from the sound of it up the presence a bit, though don't quote me on that - what were your settings?

Eh, I'd advise going much closer to the dustcap before you start upping the knobs; basically, I've found the best way is to put the mic around 50% on/50% off the dustcap (the specifics aren't too important at this point though), and then do all your tweaking with the amp settings, cuz it makes the real difference IMO! Having never played a 3-channel (or a Triple) I can't be certain that they behave similarly to mine, but I know I used to have the treble around where you do, but am much happier with it at ~11:30! (and the presence at 12, though again this is on my 2 ch. Dual) Was this the orange or red channel, btw?
Ooh, if you're on the red channel on a 3 ch., I've heard it's better to keep the pres. knob down around 9:00, but of course go with what sounds best! And FYI, in case you didn't know, the ONLY difference between the orange and red channels (at least in modern mode) is how aggressive the presence knob is! (much more so on the red, naturally)
