Hello group.

 

how can i get a fatter sound out of the A30-TB? 

 

Using Bridge Humbucker.  

My chain has in it: [ with the settings so far]  

Noise Gate  50  50  ( only used when using signal coil)

Boost Comp   61  33  56  3 o'clock 3 o'clock

Tube Drive    53  50  47   10 o'clock  4o'clock

AMP  A30TB  56  69  100  65  50  100  27  

AMP Parameters : standard no change

CAB Parameters : only changed the Low cut to 9 o.clock

Mixer  A+B  PAN Centre and  +2dB

Volume Pedal

Reverb  Hall   38  82  40  27

 

Thanks.. any help would be appreciated......

this is a very small audio example of what I get from the AC-30 model with its default cab miked with a 87 condenser mic

 

https://soundcloud.com/hurghanico/ac-30-tone-test

 

at the beginning starts a chords progression played with a LP Junior (P90 pickup) model, placed slightly on the left side..

 

then I added a solo/melody with a LP Standard placed slightly on the right side, there is a Tube Screamer, and after the amp an analog delay with mod, reverb..

 

to me it sounds quite fat and warm..

 

cab resonance is at zero..

 

amp standard controls are all at noon except Cut and Channel Volume at 100 and Presence at zero, (Treble could work good also up to about 60 to get a more bright and slightly nasal tone)..

 

tube screamer: all defaults, except output at 50..

 

all default settings for the analog delay/mod and reverb

very nice tone, but i think that vox(default parameters) direct to the pa sounds very different, at leats for me

Recently I moved into a Unit and am using some Edirol Micro powered speakers after using Rokit G2 6' and the sound is noticeably thinner. I have treated the room with bass traps and broadband absorbers.

and the bottom end is tubby.

I have also used head phones as well lately ) and these are tubby sounding too.

Hardly ever needed anything else past 10 years.

Mentioning as it could be your monitoring?

Here is my attempt  Check it out

The POD is studio out L & R into a mixer with some good monitors in my studio.

Note - on the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices in (Mac OS X 10) System Preferences in the Inputs & Recording tab, I am running about -3.0 dB, for the record sends.

I guess that is a somewhat pad?    

 

Let me know what you think
