I've had this problem happen with at least two pieces of gear now. A power amp and a reverb. I was told that for the reverb at least it is probably due to bad capacitors in the power supply which I will be replacing shortly. As far as the power amp I'm not sure at all. So I am very interested in wha...

I posted this on Gearslutz as well and the opinion there is that reversing the polarity SHOULD NOT have fixed this unless I have power issues. So one thing I need to immediately do is add a UPC and a Surge X panel and possibly a PL Plus . I should have done this as the first step but I put it off fo...

The output circuit of the Trident is clearly marked as : 1 = earth, 2 = negative, 3 = positive. However, I solved the buzzing issue by connecting HOT on the console to Neutral on the amp and the other way around and CUTTING the ground. This is without either the console or the amp being ground lifte...

I will look at the output circuit in the manual later today and I will post the details.
Thanks for trying to help me out...

Thanks for the only reply ...anything helps. So to answer your question, I'm almost 100 percent sure that the Trident has a standard pin configuration for the output...in the manual there is a diagram on how to connect the XLR output and it looks like a standard XLR...(the central pin is pin 1 right...

any thoughts....i have read close to everything that is out there on this matter and still cannot resolve this. i need some knowledge...

Console: Trident Series 65 Amps: Some old kit-made solid state amps with UNBALANCED inputs. Connection 1: Console + amps--electrically grounded; audio wire between them connected as follows : amp side (RCA plug) - hot(+) to tip, cold(-) and ground together to shield; console side (XLR) - hot (+) to ...

Can anyone who has used most of these pedals tell me how much overlap in sound there is between the Lion X and Two Face Fuzz? Is one of them any more diverse aplicable than the other?

Is there any source online where these can be heard in action?

It's getting really bad. I've almost been scammed twice on Ebay. The one time someone sent me an email from an ebay address with a fake server address where I was supposed to "update" my credit card information. Also, always watch out for people selling software and Akai MPC's. For some reason those...

Most of those are just the slate tone oscilators on consoles through a spring and usually a tape echo. Depending on the mix engineer...maybe a built in oscillator maybe a separate unit maybe something custom. I seriously doubt anyone of them were synthesizers though...especially that early in the ga...

I've been trying to find something like that too so I would also be interested in a response. I have been thinking about trying to build something ... it can't be too hard to put together a switcher box like that.

Any around here? I have a problem with my machine : I had not used it for a while and now that I turned it on everything works except the transport. I think there may be a problem with the dummy plug for the remote -- there isn't one. But for some reason that didn't stop the machine from working las...

On the same note...Can anyone suggest a good source for high quality potentiometers, switches, etc. I have a few ideas for some really basic projects and I would like to start looking for the parts.

Soundforge has really good capabilities for things like that. It's probably one of the best things to use on PC.

No one uses or knows anything about these? (i.e. bump)
