Well its been a couple weeks since my ultra arrived and i have been thrilled to death with the clean sound i have achieved. I honestly can't tell the difference between my preset and EJ's ACL clean tone!!! Floopin ridiculous! So it goes without saying i've already got my 2 grand worth [figure in the cost of two vibroluxs' or twins or whatever he's using at this point and your there] and have become an instant fan of the black box.
But on the other hand i have had much less success dialing in dirty tones. It seems that 90% of the amps have so much overextended bass that they just turn to mush on the low strings. It is extremely frustrating because i've heard this problem [and i know you guys have too] from so many others on this forum, but i guess i was hopin that it wouldn't be me..... if you know what i mean.
I've had it plugged into a crate 2x12 via an Alesis pwramp[cabs off]. I've had it in my bedroom for the last week plugged into a yamaha aw16g for direct monitoring so i could audition the cabs [WOW!! what a difference they make on the tone ehh?] all levels are set properly on everything with no audible distortion of any kind on any of the fantastic clean harmonized delayed to shite presets....so i know i'm not the problem.
So i guess my question is............ is this normal?? Am i gonna have to do Cliff's little filter trick on everyone of my dirty sounds?? Or do you guys think i have a problem elsewhere??
Any help is greatly appreciated guys. I love this forum and i love this product. I'm GONNA make it work, i just need to figure out how. I know its not gonna happen overnight, and i am dedicated to staying patient.
Thanx in advance LK
