Why does my mini sound like mini farts through 12" speakers?

Post by gunslinger_burrito »

My mini sounds so good through my Deville 410 and DI into the computer. It has plenty of gain, heavy fuzz tones, everything it should have. But every time I use it through a little marshall 112 I have, even when I turn the gain all the way up, it sounds barely over-driven. Do any of you know what's going on :idk:

Do you have problems with any of your other od/fuzzes through that amp?

This. It's probably the amp more than the Mini or the speakers.

Nope. Everything else sounds fine. I have to tweak the tones a bit, of course, but the gain and such sounds like it should on all the other pedals. It's the weirdest thing. It did the same thing through a Tiny Terror set to clean, both through the same 12" speaker, and also when I rigged it to play through the 410 cab of my Deville.

I would guess that it's a case of the pedal and the preamp on the Marshall not liking each other.

Never seen it happen but that's the two things that would make it so.

I don't have any trouble when I run it through my laney cub 12r. Though, I've experienced some Weird stuff with my mini. It doesn't seem to like extreme frequencies at high volumes running into it. It's a weird and beautiful pedal.

The Mini sounded fucking balls-out awesome through my Marshall JTM30, which is a 1x12. :idk:

this is odd. i never had any weirdness and i've tried it on at least a dozen different amps (tube and solid state) with lots of different cabs. :?:

Is there a bright switch on this amp?
If it's the case turn it off.

Hmm. I'll fuck with it (get it?) when I can play it next and record some samples.
