Mesa 5:25 Burn channel in Stoner Mode

  • Thought I'd give this profiling lark a quick try. I'll talk about my thoughts on the profiling, accuracy etc elsewhere. Lets just say that the results are at least interesting and fun in their own right, even with a crappy signal chain.


    Speaking of which, this used a bog standard Shure SM58/7 through a nasty little Presonus tube-pre that I had laying around. The Mesa itself runs through a THD hotplate and you're listening to the burn channel. The "FAR" version has the mix placed a couple of meters back from the amp, the other is on axis off center of cone, to my ears incredibly fizzy and brittle sounding in the profile (my recording experience with this amp goes quite counter to that, it tends to suffer more from flubbyitis). Apologies about the tagging/naming, I thought it would carry over my name as I'd already entered it into one. Guitar is a Parker P-38 neck pickup (single coil).


    The demo improv clip is using the far version (bass is through the same profile with the gain dialed back a little).
