Dear Peter, thank you for taking time out of your day to lecture another adult on his feedback score from an Internet forum. It is also appreciated that again someone has seen fit to get involved in a conversation between two other adults which seemed, for all intents and purposes to go well. If OP had a problem with what I said he sure as hell didn't seem to. He seemed to get what can only be described as "banter". The amount of other grown men getting their panties in a twist over this is utterly flabbergasting. Please keep your opinions on my feedback, manor and forum longevity to yourself in future. Thanks, John

Do you disagree with what I said?
-
Really? Look if you want to believe him about what causes blown speakers and how dangerous it is to your gear then that's ok. If 7k posts on an Internet forum is all the credentials you need then that's cool too. Have a good day dude
-
The first response was an attempt at humour. It certainly wasn't an attempt to belittle him. Maybe a lecture in friendly banter would be a better fit And I'm very sorry you felt you were being lectured, and I was trying to be polite, but now I'm going to have to flat out say your advice is utterly moronic and should not be listened to whatsoever. Working in a guitar shop does not make you an authority on this issue and the "sound guys" you are referring to probably know a lot more about it than you so maybe it is then you should believe. Every single blown speaker I've ever had in an amp, be it a rehearsal space, loaners or anything I've worked at has been down to a cable being accidentally grounded while the amp had been at volume. (That pop sound you hear is the cable grounding to the input jack surround for anyone who may be reading this and isn't aware)
-
Not entirely sure what the ellipses insinuated but yes, it is a cause of blown speakers. Obviously this is volume dependent it but to tell anyone, especially someone who seems to be closer to the beginning of their quest for knowledge in all things guitar that it is safe is very poor advice. No matter what you're plugging in it is good practice to always have the channel you're plugging into muted in some way or other. Be it a guitar amp, a line in on a mixer or anything else. The same way that it is important to turn mixers and speakers etc on in the correct order. Unlikely? Yes. Does it happen? Yes. Is it completely avoidable? Absolutely

Quick question before I take the Helix plunge....
johnonguitar replied to rick_hollis's topic in Helix
There's a forum member who does this https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8508/28196167100_1fd3aa8ac5_k_d.jpg Has two Fryette Power Stations feeding two 1x12 Orange cabs on stage with the xlr's going front of house. -
I'm just messing with you man but yeah the tuners a good way :) make sure it is muted somehow though because blown speakers can happen when plugging/unplugging
-
Put the tuner on dumbass. It's mutes everything :p

Cheers. Thought I was going crazy there for a moment!

I want the Elephant Man delay to be set at 82ms in one snapshot but 1/8 notes in another. No matter what I do it either stays in subdivisions or time settings when I change snapshot Is what I'm trying to do possible?
-
Started mucking around with the Dual Pitch block to see if I could replace my Chorus block to free up some space. I think it sounds pretty good. I like the Chorus block but this has just the right enough of "dirt" to make it a little more fun. With snapshots I know have my modulation and octaver taking up one block. Wonder if there's anything else I can make it do. Ps. Dual Pitch, octave up, octave below and a Rotary 145 gives a great organ sound :)

Don't listen to these guys. It CAN be done and it is WORTH doing. I know a few guys who have went down a similar route for live use with really great results. Go for it -
If you haven't already try using the Soldano Clean amp. It's the business

Cheers! Ps. Do you ever sleep?! -
I'm on 2.0 just now. Didn't bother with 2.01 because I hadn't had a glitch and I'm lazy. It's no secret that there's an update about to drop sometime in the next few weeks. Therefore I'm asking if I can skip 2.01 entirely and go straight to the next updat or do I need to install that update first?

Can we please hear clips of you playing Wicked Finger? You must sound really good, excited to hear the end product! -
To me you will always have luscious locks Seriously though, I was a little critical before the v2 update but it's all good now. Deluxe normal, soldano clean and crunch, 2204 mod and plexi brt Load your fav IR's and quit moaning. If you sound lollipop? no offence guys but if that's the case you sound lollipop anyway. and if you're still worried about your hi-gain in Djent sound then well hurry up and get through puberty and play some proper music children
