AT5 - Mesa Boogie and the lack of gain

Postby inflamesjames99 » Sun Mar 07, 2021 5:39 pm

Hello all,

Has anyone else had issues with the lack of saturation on ALL the Mesa models? I have high output pickups and using other high gain amps within AT5 - such as the 5150 - it all sounds excellent with masses of gain to spare.

However, when I use the rectos, the Mark 3 and 4 etc. on the lead channels with gain almost maxed out its really nothing more than a crunch. I've tried increasing the master volume and reducing interface output, using EL34s, changing cabs, mikes etc. but no joy.

Anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks,

James
