MEL9 Tape Replay Machine : Much better than the real McCoy!

8 years ago

This takes a little skill to use, but well worth it. The sounds are just what we expected and are really authentic. What's not to like? Well........

Small points but, I would prefer true bypass, not a buffer, but having tested it it seems to be pretty good at just passing the signal on in bypass mode. If I want a buffer I would use one. Too many buffers in a chain is going to cause problems, so now I need a switchbox.

I would also prefer a switch to turn the dry output off and on, as in it's current state you can't, so the dry output socket is useless, being able to live swap amps would be much better. I would definately buy the Mk II if these faults were corrected
