the 5150 processing thread

[AD Chaos]

I had a room, but situation has changed and I had to relocate. And as you know, 5150 is fuckin' beast which tries to rip your head off with post gain on 3+.

Again.. can't you help the situation with a power attenuator, like a Hotplate?

what are you guys putting the post-gain on? i know the 5150 really opens up when you crank it, but i don't wanna go overboard when recording.

What style of music specifically?

I think you can run the amp pretty conservatively (relatively speaking) and still get good tones. Remember Aaron Smith's clip with the post gain at like .5? That sounded huge.
