Walkabout Mid Knob

Sign in to disble this ad
TBers: much of the great info in discussion of Mesa's Walkabout seems to support that 9:00 is the flat position for the head's Mid knob. Have I gleaned the correct conclusion from the heaps of WA data?

I'd say more like 10-11, but that's just me.

Try not to think too much about it, and just set it where it feels nice.

That's generally my style (just doing what feels nice) but I am performing scientific tone experimentation and require 'baseline' data. Interestingly it's been set at about 11:00, so I guess my ear is better than I thought.

Thanks, Chef!

Depends on your cabs. I set mine at 12 but on gigs I will often dial the bass back to 10:00

While this is on the subject, what is the frequency that the mid knob ( curious about bass and treble too) is set to ? Or how do these knobs interact ?
