Mesa Boogie Rectifier Recording Preamp Owners

Just on razors edge and live slbum. Live album angus has a dime type nasty tone .it’s super metal for acdc

I'm listening to the Live album now and yeah I can hear it. Angus' guitar has got to be on the right channel, right? It's a lot more metal sounding, compressed and sustainy than the guitar on the left channel. It's also got an EQ signature with a specific kind of resonant peak that sounds like those old metal grill Mesa cabs.

Sounds cool.

I owned the rectifier preamp for a short while, I got it as a part of a deal with also the mesa 2:100 power amp. As a previous poster mentioned, the preamp modern mode is also supported to activate this mode for the power amp. Without the power amp you won't get the rack equivalent to the regular rectifier amp. The preamp power amp version does not have a tube rectifier option.
