No need for booteek multi fx units . . .

. . . , midi switchers, loopers - if you have a VH4

I will tape some more instructional stuff about the VH4 on wednesday.

Anything you guys are interested in - VH4-instructions-wise?

I don't need it, but I really think you guys should do some detailed biasing vids just to keep all the novice's from running into problems with their amp if they're bullheaded enough not to send it to a tech. Since most people seem to be taking it into their own hands it would be a good idea to make double sure they're doing it right, also to keep them safe. Help reduce the trouble thread's too I'd imagine. You know something with safety tips, how long to let the tubes warm up because as the tubes warm the bias can change dramatically especially with new tubes, ect. and so forth.

I think a virtual manual would be a good idea just because some people learn visually better than through reading. Maybe not a section by section thing but just important things. Like storing midi commands, little more in depth lesson on the loop's and how to use the insert on channel 2 for a tuner and how to make the shorting jack to do so. Just things like that really.

You da man!

Good idea Nick, I will entertain the novices with my krautish accent and do a virtual manual, thanks for the suggestion !

As someone who will be getting their 1st ever midi controller (G-System) in the next couple of weeks and not having a fecking clue how to use one, I'd appriciate a demo of midi setup

Make it simple, I think my brain will be bleeding after I get the G-system wired up.

Well I don't know how much of a suggestion it really was because it's pretty much what you're doing anyway. Awesome of you to do it, that's not going to be a light task, doing a whole manual of sorts.

Take care buddy,

Nick

NICE I totally dig this video tutorial thing

I think the biasing thing is a GREAT idea. Olaf if you could do one biasing with a multimeter+output transformer (the normal way) and other with a bias probe like the one we have from tubetown.

I'd love a video explaing how to make things midi switchable. Like how to assign each channel to a preset, how to assign mute, each send, loop, etc etc (basic stuff that REALLY helps when you WATCH a video of someone doing it instead of reading it)

I was expecting that you guys would ask me to make a comparison between the VH4 and the units on the right in the rack (AxeFX+VHT2502)

Will do some stuff over the summer . . .

G-System: Well I don't have one, but I think running the AxeFX thru the amp with the 4 cable method would be identical to the AxeFX, right?

 

[Ailean]

I wasn't asking for a hook up demo, but if you're going to do one I'll be very happy.

I imagine the AxeFX will be the same as the G-System.

Like Joey said it's sometimes much easier to follow a short video than it is to follow written instructions. I'm sure I can figure it out, but if you feel you have the time and energy to do some instructional video's I'm sure a lot of people will benefit.


Oh, and another idea.. fault finding / diagnostics, just the easy stuff, taking out tubes pair wise etc...

not a comparison, but any quick impressions would be nice :-D
