Hoisted with my own petard

[FractalAudio]

Testing some stuff today and broke out my 68 Plexi that the Plexi 50W 6550 model is based . Hooked it up to the isolation cab and created a preset to do some A/B tests. Model sounded nothing like the amp. "What did I break?!!" After about 15 minutes I remembered that my amp now has EL34s in it. Set the Power Tube Type to EL34 and proceeded to kick myself in the butt...

Evidently it happens even to the "best of 'em" !

More importantly.....


Whacha cooking? I smell something bigger than a plexi...

I appreciate that you share stuff like that. We are all human, apparently.

I love these behind the scenes glimpses.

Impressive that your modelling can capture that level of detail ... and that you could hear it ..

 

[Tahoebrian5]

Make it so

This guy was kind of prone to being hoisted by his own petard:

Thanks for making us all feel a shade more normal!

"I hate it when that happens"... irony,.. oh the irony!

I’m glad someone asked!

The things you learn on a Fractal forum...

Now days I believe it is referred to as a Cerebal Rectum Inversion of the First Order.
