    For those who don't know, the power section (into the effects return) of the Orange Super Crush 100 is identical to the pedal baby (sans eq). It was a big selling point for me when I bought the SC100 combo 2 years ago. Careful though, the SC100 might just sound good enough in its own right to make you drop your modeler.

    So we dont need to make the effects go after the "real cab" right?
    just close the cab block and replace the studio monitor i use with the poweramp+ cab
    Do you think its a worthy upgrade from using the studio monitors at home ? i only care about better experience when playing ;D
    Also, from whtever experience or research u might have, would u reccomend the baby or other tube power amp or should i try /go with the seymour powerstage >?

    This comment is coming in late, but I'm using the Seymour Duncan power stage 700 through a 4X 12. I know it's a little bit of overkill, but you never have to worry about keeping up with anybody else. Would like to look into getting a tube powered amp, though, to see if it sounds a bit more organic. I'm having to EQ the power stage a little bit more than I'd like to. Sounds a little sterile. ( With that said, it is running four gt75s , which I'm not really a fan of anymore)

  • @guitarlife6190
    @guitarlife6190 4 місяці тому +1

    I have a question. So if I want to use a cab on stage to monitor my sound I should turn off the cab simulation. I get that. But I also want to run out of my QC to FOH which I need my cab simulation on. How do you do that with the QC? Thanks in advance

    • @jimmyfranklin
      @jimmyfranklin  4 місяці тому

      Excellent question! You would simply rout two signals in the quad. You can do this two ways. You can run a “dual cab” rig and rout them to separate outs and one on the lines has the cab sim off for the cab and on for FOH
      The other way is two have two identical rigs set on two separate lines to different outputs. Depending on if you are using scenes or stomp mode you may want to do one or the other.
      Did that make sense??

    Can I connect it directly to the mixing console or di box instead of connect to matching speaker????
    If yes, then from which output,
    8 or 16 ohm????

    • @jimmyfranklin
      @jimmyfranklin  2 місяці тому +1

      Well… I wouldn’t. You would need some sort of load box and speaker emulator. You would be better off plugging one output into this for stage volume and one into a mixing console. But it’s 100 watts at 8 ohms and 70 watts at 16 ohms

    • @MrStephenlederle
      @MrStephenlederle 5 місяців тому

      @briantost7125 I do. However, I switched to the Seymour Duncan Powerstage 700. The Orange Peadal Baby 100 added too much of the "Orange" tone, but I don't like that particular color for guitar tones. The SD PS790 is a pure neutral tone with a 3-band EQ. If you like or don't mind the Orange Pedal Baby coloring the IR-Xs tones, then it's a great setup.

      Ok. Are you starting with the treble and bass in the middle position (12 o’clock) and crafting your tone from there and then fine tuning with the bass and treble? That would be my advice to start with.
