no, not THOSE blues...
Looking for some feedback from anyone who gigs or has gigged with an AD30DT. I've had mine for a few months now and really like the tones I can get out of it. Couple of downsides I'm finding:
Our band covers a wide variety of musical styles from all periods (well, 50's onwardJohnny Cash to Green Day, Hank Snow to the Ramones) and I like the convenience of a multi-effect/modelling pedal. Wish I could save more presets in the Vox so I wouldn't have to tweak settings as much.
I also notice that at stage volume (30W with the master at 2 or 3 o'clock) the sound gets kinda harsh/thin. I'm mic-ing it to the PA, should I be bringing the level up in mix rather that running my amp flat out? Or is a 30W 1x10 undersized/underpowered for med. to larger venues? We've typically been playing halls that hold 250 to 500+.
We're trying to keep our stage volume down to a reasonable level, but you know how it goes with drummers and bass players - gotta FEEL that beat![]()
I like the portability of the AD30VT, but maybe need more punch. My local music store is bringing in one of the new AD120VT head/cabs...maybe, just maybe...but then I'd have to lug even more gear (our drummer sets up in 1/2 the time I do
).
Maybe I just expect too much out of too little - LOL!
