Pretty much every live track here is H1203 and/or C1203T (mostly H1203). Only a thousand or so tunes

put https:// in front of that - the forum software insists on trying to pull in the feed which isn't what you want.
Probably most consistent sound are from ones labeled "TRiP" with a date. That is a local club I played a lot.
@emjazz (and whomever else might find it interesting), here is another installment in the unintentional series Late-Night Phone-Recordings of the Hathor 1203 -- the impetus for this one being the discussion you guys were having about how various switch settings might approximate a single-driver cab.
Little riff played on the neck pickup, with:
- both switches up
- top (treble) switch down
- bottom (mid) switch down
- both switches down
The recording was made at very low volume -- I live in an apartment and it was past 1:00 A.M. -- with my phone on a music stand, not quite two feet in front of the cab. The resulting file was very quiet and the level had to come up a lot when normalizing -- aside from that, no EQ, compression, or any effects were applied to it. Some EQ was used on the amp -- slight boosts to the lows, upper mids, and treble -- but the controls are all within 15 "minutes" or so of "noon" (straight up). The single port is unplugged and the cab is elevated.
Again, the recording was made with a phone on a music stand, so no claims are made regarding the accuracy of representation/tonal balance, but it should give an idea of the settings relative to each other.
