My Shuttle 9.2 is an amazing amp!

Don doesn't adhere to the fEarful cab dimension/crossover specs to the letter. He builds whatever the customer asks him to build, and offers advice/ideas when they are invited. His pal Ralph Patterson designs his crossovers. When the customer asks for something based around the fEarful design...

Don doesn't really have a standard design on that style cabinet. For example, on mine he used the 500w Faital neo 15s instead of the 3015LF, and ceramic Faital 6.5" mid drivers. In order to truly know if your bass is flat through your cabinet, you'd need a spectrum analyzer of some kind...

I LOVE that Tele bass!

I can attest to the amazing sound of this cabinet with the right speakers. Mine is simply fantastic! Faital 500w neo 15s, Faital ceramic 120w 6.5s, Eminence tweeter.

I plugged an old Android phone into my amp. It had a frequency generator app on it. Turned it on and just kinda put up with rattling windows for a few hours. Funny, that kind of constant low rumble can make you feel uneasy after a while. When my fiancee got home, she was like "oh my God...

I just received mine last week, and Don said I should work it in gently. So I think it's up to us to break them in. I pumped a 31Hz signal into mine for a few hours at home using my Shuttle 9.2, and then I took it to the gig. I couldn't believe how accurate this cabinet sounded. Here's what I...

Count me in, Chef! [emoji41]

The ShuttleMax 9.2 is probably anybody's best bet for pure power, versatility, and tone shaping. The mid scoop button isn't super aggressive. It's just right, IMO. After all, scoop the mids too much and you'll get buried in the mix. The highs boost is again a very mild switch. It doesn't get...

In my mind, there is a huge difference between transparent and flat. Transparent, to me, says that the amp plays no role in the shaping of the instrument's tone at all. What you put in is what it puts out... Only louder. Flat, to me, implies that any natural frequency bumps or dips in the...

Groovy. I thought the last part of the highlighted bit you quoted implied innovation and creativity, not the opposite.

I never said that at all. Using a canned algorithm to achieve a certain tone is just another means to an end. It does not limit a person's creativity, nor does it make his/her creative statement more or less valid or meaningful. You read a little too much into what I said. I'll further refine my...

I understand if you disagree, but to dismiss someone's opinion as nonsense (or horsespit, for that matter), is just plain rude.

I think you missed the spirit of his point on the Line 6 comment. Yes, of course they're still making music, but they have chosen to use a modeler to reproduce a specific tone. While the user can (and usually does) tweak this modelled sound to his/her own specs, the basic tone is kind of...

I know this is a Shuttle Max thread, but does anybody know where I can find either a suitable bag or some rack ears for my non-Max 9.2? I'm admittedly pretty hard on my gear, so I know the box it came in will only last so long.
