Fractal Talk

[Shredder777]

If you watch recordings of live EVH shows before the 90s, Ed still has THAT tone. Sure I agree there is definitely some studio magic that adds to the sound, but he was also able to get that sound live. Same with Eric Johnson, he was able to get some pretty magical sounds live. Sure maybe the sound engineer for the venue was adding some special sauce at the mixer, but it wasn't all studio magic.

Also, I own a 5150 and the Fractal model has always sounded really close. The TMP sounded worlds apart with their first iteration. Inexcusable considering they are partners with the EVH brand or whatever.

But there are alot of variations between 5150s.

How was it that the original release was so different and then "just like that" it sounded indistinguishable from the Fractal? My guess is they took their original creation and tone matched it to the Fractal.

They "fixed it" by adding an impedance curve to the proceedings. In the wrong place.

What mean this?

If you think they fixed it by tone matching the Fractal; you should go to TGP and suggest that to Stilwell

I'm already banned, even if I could say that I'd get banned again.

I can see Cliff surrounded with Plexi's in his lab right about now.
