I was just about to say it definitely has that low end rumble a plugged in 5150 can give a roadster but with the top end of a solo

do i want to lol....
should upload some pics of the settings man.
i have my treble and presence on like 9-10 (on my 2 chan dual rec) hahah. i think my dimarzio's in my music man are pretty fizzy as well though coz when i use my nailbomb it sounds too dark.
where did you have the 57? right on the cone?

Pretty much the same settings as what I usually have on the solo, but that clip has channel 4 on the left and 3 on the right (which is fizzier).
*o clock settings*
Pres 9, treble 12, bass 11, gain 1:30, mid 11.
I had the 57 further off than usual actually, a about an inch and a half off the dustcap and slight off axis.
Sounds abit better on this clip: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/451140/NAD_Mix3.mp3

I actually just made a narrow but fairly deep cut at 9.5k and 6.2k for the last link which sounds better.
This is just a first attempt, the room I tracked that in is shocking aswell.
I already did a 3 channel solo vs Roadster comparison.
And the 3 channel is insanely fizzy which leads me to believe it wasn't tracked as good as it could be.

Top end had me thinking Krank for sure.
Crazy how much different it sounds from the 94 Recto I have in the studio right now.

I re-reamped the clips today and used a more standard mic position on axis this time along with a makeshift duvet setup in front of the cab.
Also turned the gain down and the mids down abit, yet this has better midrange IMO. All round less fizz and chunkier:

No EQ besides a LP/HP: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/451140/Roadster_Solod.mp3

Sounds good to me as well. That cab is like instant Megadeth tone, figures as it's Dave's signature cab.

I just wish I had an Mesa OS to compare it to! The high mid sizzle is kinda getting on my nerves a tiny bit. Still digging the Roadster though, much more midrange than my solo head.
I thought the speakers should be broken in by now but perhaps ill do the whole clean chuggah chuggah thing and see if it helps anymore.
