    Pete, great job of showing the full range of the Pittbull's versatility and range of options. Nobody ever thinks of demoing the Ultra-Lead with a stock Strat. That was killin! Also dig that you used it to track the bass, like you also did on the Deliverance demo. One of the most aggressive amps of all time has a few sweet spots too!

      I bought this module and paired it with my 2/90/2 and and stereo rig and fxs and its amazing sounding, previous '96 Ultralead with GEQ owner and this demo got me through missing my amp until I plunked the cash on the module!!

    Hi Pete !! I realize this Video is a few years old . But amazing job on putting it together . I have a couple of Randall Preamp Modules and after watching this Video it's clear to me that Synergy is a way better product . Hopefully sometime in the next few years I'll be able to afford the Dual Module Amp and and a couple of the really good Modules . I love this Video you put together . Top notch as usual . Hope you're doing well . 🎸

    Hi Pete. I wonder if you or anyone here can give me some advice on using the blend feature on the BAE 1073mp? I was going to get mine modded with the Steve Stevens Mod when BAE told me that there is a drop of 25dB when using the blend output. When you used it with the blend output, did you need to boost the signal after coming out of the 1073? or did you find that it was fine even with the loss of gain?
    I'd really appreciate any advice on this if anyone can help. Another option I was looking at was to get the radial mix 2:1 instead.

    • @PeteThorn
      @PeteThorn  4 года назад +1

      Yes that’s true there is a drop and then I just up the level again with another pre.
      I usually do this with a UA pre, in UA console. Sounds fine but it would be cool if they could just put another line amp or something on there to up the gain
