    Mesa Mark IV vs Triaxis models

    That just helped out tremendously. I don't often find myself using controls outside of the authentic tab, which is why I was questioning my choices here. This combined with lowering the first drive control just nailed it for me. Thank you!

    Mesa Mark IV vs Triaxis models

    4.0 on both I tried that and the curve that comes preset as the 2x12 recto actually is giving the best results right now. (Makes sense, since I'm using the real one) I'll still experiment with this in the future though! I think I might've discovered my issue here. Of course user error as I...

    Mesa Mark IV vs Triaxis models

    I'm a huge fan of the Mark IV amp (if that wasn't obvious lol) and every now and then I try to dial up the Triaxis "USA Pre LD2 Green" models since that is based around a Mark IV sound. I'm not sure if there's a huge user base for these models, but hoping someone can help. (@2112 and...

    Layouts

    This. I set up my FM9 in a way where the top 3 switches are Effects (hold is presets) Scenes (hold is looper) and Tap Tempo (hold is tuner). I programmed it so those 3 buttons remain consistent across every single layout, meaning only the bottom 6 buttons change. If I need more options, I set...

    I'm using a tube power amp with the PA modeling off in the Fractal. KSR PA-50.

    Boom! Fits very nicely in front of the cab for home playing. I love this thing!

    I went on YouTube to look something up and then saw a nice thumbnail from Leon Todd that had just been uploaded. Watched the intro to make sure it was real and then headed over here!

    Matrix vs Seymour Duncan PowerStage (Volume Setting)

    Appreciate that. Any input on the question in the post regarding the volume setting?

    Matrix vs Seymour Duncan PowerStage (Volume Setting)

    @yek I've seen you've owned both units for a while and probably have good advice in this area if you don't mind!

    Matrix vs Seymour Duncan PowerStage (Volume Setting)

    I've read multiple times that Matrix power amps start using their full potential and sound best when you set them around 2 or 3 O'clock. Discussed in threads like this - https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/metallicas-latest-rig-rundown-has-an-interesting-nugget.130918/ Does the Seymour...

    Any cab users with advice?

    Just chiming in one more time in case anyone comes across this thread in the future. Might help someone out and save them a bunch of time. My comments about using the imp. curve turned out to fail me when I went remotely above bedroom volumes. The KSR PA-50's "hifi" switch does NOT act like a...

    Any cab users with advice?

    The OP is not having that issue. His situation was not getting the same results from a real amp/cab vs the Fractal into a neutral tube power amp (into that same cab) - My guess is that it had to do with the speaker impedance curve.
