Description

I’ve provided captures of my Mesa Badlander 50 combo's Crunch Channel. Same approach as my recent Crush Channel pack. The Crunch Channel is rounder, darker, and lower gain than the Crush Channel. The Crush Channel almost sounds like it has a TS-type boost in front of it in comparison. My previous pack (A1/A2), dialed considerably darker, is found here: https://www.tone3000.com/tones/mesa-boogie-badlander-50-crunch-channel-115dbu-35162 Two gain settings (8, 10) were used. Tone settings are provided in the following order, approximated from 0-10: Treble - Mid - Bass - Presence Tone Setting 1: T-6 M-6 B-7 P-6 Tone Setting 2: T-7 M-4 B-8 P-7 I took the settings and trained them with the following loads to impart their respective speaker impedance curves within the captures: -Suhr Reactive Load (SRL Suffix, SRL VAR for Variac mode) -Mesa Traditional 4x12 (4FB Suffix) for the ideal load to this amp Full Rig Signal Chain: RME UCX II Line Out – United Studio Technology Replay Box at 11.5dBu - Mesa Badlander 50 - Suhr Reactive Load Thru - Mesa Traditional 4x12 Cabinet – Celestion V30 - Shure SM57 - CAPI VP28 - RME UCX II Line In at 11.7dBu The Suhr Reactive Load was used to take a tap of the Full Rig signal chain to make the Amp Head Captures. Input/output calibration metadata for 11.5dBu send/11.7dBu return was filled in during TONE3000 training. Turn on output volume normalization if you want to hear the difference between Full Power and Variac modes without the big volume difference.
