Yeah so that’s not a microphone tube. It is oscillation. The reason I posted the video is because people have been talking about it. The video you quoted was a reply video where I was asked to set it like that, specifically those settings. Maybe check out the one before it. Again the settings on it the video before are higher gain but not as high as the video you referenced. I get that it’s going to go into oscillation at any extreme setting. The point of all of this is to see what’s normal and what’s not.

Gotcha. I'll check it out.
 
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Look, I just heard one in person.

Sounds so much better than those old piece of sh*t iic+. Man those cork of sniff want that much for those old scratchy turds when you can get this completely updated & SUPERIOR 2C+ for like $3600 with a warranty....

Its over for y'all. The gig is up 💀💀
Many thank 🤝🤝
 
in my scant 42 years of playing and owning boogies, the only time any of them squealed is when a preamp tube went microphonic. and that was like twice in those many years. and that was because boogies normally shipped with quality tested tubes back in the day.

ask Mike Bendinelli about tubes one day and prepare for a 2 hour audiophile symposium.

Change everything on that email to say “shift the oscillation to within audible range” anytime he mentioned oscillation. The amps are likely still very much oscillating but within inaudible ranges. Even then you can still catch inaudible oscillation tones audibly via a change in the gain character/structure and attitude of the amp such as when rolling your volume knob quickly on your guitar and catching a whistle.

To not make them stable everywhere means you’re going to likely notice decreased tube life long term.

If I bought a new tube amp and they sent me that email id be returning it. It likely is just designed wrong as I also stated prior.

on the other hand, wouldn`t it be an easy fix to cancel out the oscillation? My MKIII green has one single cermaic cap on of the output tube sockets. I remeber when asking what this cap is for, I was told to prevent oscillation.

Removing it and preventing it are two different scenarios. To remove it you have to find what’s causing it. If you go cap slappy you’ll find it’s fixed in some settings and comes back in others. Once it permeates your circuit you have to fix the source.

he stopped the video too fast.... does the reissue do the famous "c+ chirp" when you shut it off too fast? those who know, know. my friend sampled and looped it once in a electronic music song he made, i wish i still had a copy cuz he made it sound really cool :geek:
