I have an effects loop or phase inverter or something more scarier wrong with the III, the jewel bulb burnt out of the Rectifier and the Mk V footswitch jack is about at a point where it needs replaced. I'm trying to ignore all the signs right now

Shut up and get a Badlander.

This thread should never be below the (stupid) mark thread

Hey let’s not speak poorly of marks now



Badlander continues to be my go to live amp recently though, pic from Sunday nights gig. Sounds awesome with the evm loaded thiele

I’m thinking about loading a null IR into the BL25 for capturing purposes. That seems like an obvious and easy way to do it. Any gotchas I should know about?

The manual doesn’t say this, but the manual for the standalone Cab Clone IR does - make sure your IRs are 48KHz:

I tried loading IRs one time and got silence. I thought it was broken, but I was using 96KHz IRs.

You can load IRs into your BL25?

Edit - just researched that and yeah I'm jealous - that would be a very cool addition to the Mark series.

Mark VII has it too.

Yep the Mark VII has the same two notes board,

Now if I could just hunt down a 48k null IR

Ok I don’t have the Badlander handy to test this but I downloaded a null 96k IR from Strymon, opened a new project in Logic, Set the project’s sample rate to 48k, imported the IR into an audio region, selected “convert file” when it asked if I wanted to convert the project to 96k or the file to 48k, then exported that file as a .wav. Hopefully that works.

IRs are just .wav files, so yeah adding them to a DAW then rendering a new file at 48KHz is how I convert.
