I've done this with a GK-800RB head (not connected to a cab) and it works fine. I also called GK to insure I wasn't doing any damage. If there's any doubt you could always get in touch with Ampeg.

Pulled the trigger--got a new Mac Pro and cross-graded to PT 9 from my previous Mac G4 running PT6. Big jump! I'm liking it so far but still have a bunch to learn on the new features added since version 6. The only thing I lost was the ability to run my copy of Inspector XL; but that's a pretty smal...

Very good, thanks!

I monitor from the "OUTS" stereo Aux track described in my post above. On that track I set up a stereo bus send to the "MIX" stereo audio track, which I keep record-enabled and on Mute. Makes sense; so if I understand correctly--in the way I have my session set up (with a stereo aux "master" or "ou...

You can also try this - create an new stereo aux track and a new stereo audio track. Set you multitrack outputs to bus 1&2, set the input of the aux track to bus 1&2 and the output to bus 3&4, set the input of the new audio track to bus 3&4. Treat the aux as your master fader. Any plug ins or autom...

Set the output for your tracks to Bus 1&2. Make a new stereo track called MIX (or whatever). Set the inputs for that new stereo track to Bus 1&2. Hit record. Done. No external routing or conversion needed. In that setup I'd essentially be treating my stereo audio input as a master fader. If I added...

You don't necessarily need a master fader in that situation, unless 1) you need to bring the overall level of the mix down before it is printed, or 2) there are master bus effects (compression limiting, saturation, etc) you want printed. Yeah, I am using master bus effects effects often. My workaro...

I'm on an older computer and sometimes my bounce handler gets wonky. Further, it's nice to get rough mixes together of sessions quickly with out having to re-import and split up a large bounced file--I can just record to the internal stereo file songs I want and export them quickly. I know I can bou...

Right on, I'll try that as a workaround if I can't get a bus out of the Master Fader to work. Thanks!

My preferred work method is to bounce songs to a 2-track stereo audio file in PTLE and then use the file export feature to get the tracks out of PTLE into something I can burn to CD. Right now I'm doing this by running the 2-track output from my 002 through my board and then back into PT via an Apog...

Yeah, I've cleaned them like crazy without luck. I've had a couple more go bad switching back and forth from repro to cue mode. If I swap relays around between "good" and "bad" channels; the problem always follows the suspect relay. I'll try scrubbing on the terminals of the actual relays a bit more...

Right on, thanks Nate!

So, after some searching this is the closest match I can find at this point: http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=R10-E1Z4-V700-ND I got some more info off the Aromat relay: 24 VDC coil Contacts rated 2A @ 28 VDC; 1A @ 125 VAC The dimensions between the two relays match p...

Good info you guys, thanks.

Right on, thanks. My only question is whether it's running AC or DC; but I can check the schematic; and I sort of doubt there's a voltage transformer in there.
