Ac30 For Frfr Players

[EOengineer]

Weirdest thing. The AC30 is one of my favorite models when playing through my headphones (Sony 7506). It's bright, and jangly, with that super snappy midrange vox thing...but I just can't make it happen through my RCF 312A. Just getting dull, spitty raspy crunch with the "on the verge of breakup and slightly past" type tones I usually associate with the AC30.

 

Anyone using it FRFR? My deluges, park75, and rectifier tones sound GREAT. I've rolled the bass back a bit, brought the "cut" up, tried different mic options. I'm a bit confused.

Are you using Full or Pre Amp Models? is this a pre made preset you Downloaded? Try Creating one from scratch setting the Amp Tones without any Fx at first. Also check the Output mode on the HD500.

 

Also, Something that I just learned myself, Try creating a Preset with the actual setup and at the actual level you plan to use it.

 

I use my HD500 with a JBL PRX600, I Get Great AC30 Sounds.

 

Hope this Helps.

I probably should have mentioned that I'm a POD veteran. I appreciate the suggestions though, those were all things a verified prior to posting.

 

I build all my patches from scratch, and am shocked that I cant get what I'm looking for out of the AC30. So weird. Maybe I should post a sample, though I doubt that's going to help much.

I hear you man!

I have been a Long time Line6 Enthusiast/User as well and I still run into a lot of weird hard to figure out situations.

Good Luck to you.
