HELP! guitar straight to speaker/mixer undesirable!

[Santa]

to get a decent tone with some depth i use a preamp rite?

this is kinda impt cause i want to sound reasonably okay whiles not lugging arnd a huge amp cause my friend already has a speaker system.

or do i use a multi effect (kinda defeats the purpose i have to lug that arnd then)

Look at the GT2 & TRI AC.

 

[Santa]

thanks for the prompt reply, shred.

anyway, another stupid question.

i need a special cable from pedal to bose speaker system right?

 

[Santa]

O.O no reply.

oh well. i got hold of the tri-od which is an older version of the tri-ac..

does it sound exactly the same??

 

[ShredCow]

Nope. TRI AC is much lower gain-ed.

TRI OD is more similiar to the GT2.

 

[tany]

BB preamp leh? does it do the same thing since it's preamp? lol

 

[Santa]

o.o

have yet to plug it in cause the guy's switch is spoilt (cry cry)

the reviews on harmony central say that its hard to get a nice clean sound?

shredd what'd ya think since you've got one!

 

[ShredCow]

the TRI OD?

It just 3 simulations, a fender, a marshall, and a mesa.

It really does just those 3... nothing else.

So whatever you put in, chances are, it will sound like those 3 tones/eq.

The Speaker Simulation is really average with a lot of compression.

Uh.

I sold mine off.

 

[Santa]

hehe okay.

nvm shall wait and later upgrade to a gt-2.

i'm still lousy no pt having exp effects or guitars.

Since when was skill poportionate to gear? I got so much gear & I'm not that good....

Just concentrate on getting stuff that will inspire you man. Things that can help motivate you to play more, practice more...

Oh, search Palmer Speaker Sims on google.

I have a Palmer PDI-09, very nifty thing, passive and its speaker simulation is the best I've tried yet.

yeah we all is gear whores with no talent. me too. im totally guilty of that and id say, instead of thinking whether ure good enough to use certain gear, just buy what u think ull use. ok maybe not think but a definitive that u will use la.

 

[Santa]

nice check back under construction.

hehe.
