Guitar Tube Amps - 6L6 Vs EL84

When it comes to guitar amps, there are a million choices. There are combos, practice amps, stacks, half stacks, separate heads, separate cabinets, modeling amps, acoustic amps, low wattage, high output, 1-12, 2-12's, 4-10's, 1-15, 10 watt, 30 watt, 40 watt, 100 watt....and the list goes on!

But beyond all that, the first really important choice to make is whether to go with a solid state amp, or a tube amp.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both - and that discussion is for another day. But if you decide to go with a tube amp, you will want to be aware of the differences between the two predominant tube types that are available.

Within every tube amp there are typically two tube classifications - pre-amp tubes, and power amp tubes.

Pre-amp Tubes:

These are the smaller tubes and there can be anywhere from 2 to 4 or more of them. These tubes power the "pre" section of the amp and are responsible for producing the boost or distortion, and adding "warmth" to the tone.

Power Amp Tubes:

These larger tubes carry the load of the amp and are responsible for the main output signal.

Today we are looking at the differences in the two main types of "power amp" tubes, 6L6's and EL84's.

There are significant differences in the sound produced by power amp tubes labeled "6L6" and "EL84" - and when shopping for a guitar amp you will want to consider these carefully according to the style of music you are playing.

6L6 Tubes

If you are playing blues, country, southern rock and some rock music - 6L6's may be your best choice. They produce a cleaner, warm "vintage" tone that is suitable for these styles of music. These tubes are closely associated with the "Fender" sound and are stock tubes on most of these amps.

EL84 Tubes

These will produce a boosted mid range tone and have a history of "breaking up" earlier for a distinct distortion sound. They are preferred by many guitarists that lean toward a heavier rock or metal style. EL84's are closely associated with the "Marshall" sound and are stock tubes on most of these amps.

One or the Other

In most cases, a guitar amp is built to accept either 6L6's - or EL84's, and you will need to be aware of which, and the nuances of each before making a decision.

There are, however, some boutique amps, such as some of the Mesa Boogie models, that come with both. These come with a switch that allows you to change between the two, and opens up a whole new range of tonal possibilities. Of course, you'll also have to open up your wallet because they don't come cheap.

Forget the Rules

Even though we have discussed the two power amp tube types according to the style of music that they are most suited for, ultimately every guitarist is unique in their approach to playing. As a result, like most anything relating to the art of interpreting music, there are absolutely no rules.

I have known blues and southern rock players that got killer tones out of Marshall amps with EL84's. And, conversely, there have been plenty of players using Fenders loaded with 6L6's playing hard rock and heavy metal.

The point is, a serious tube amp can be a pricey investment, and the key is to be aware of the power amp tube differences going into it so you can make an informed decision based on what works best for you!

The Last Word in DJ Tech - The USB Turntable

DJ'ing, like everything else in this world, has been made better through progress. So much so that an old school DJ, someone who just knew records, record decks and a mixer, would struggle even to work out what half the kit used by a modern DJ is, let alone what it does or how to use it. So what, one wonders, would the old school have made of the USB turntable?
What, for that matter, do we? What is a Universal Serial Bus turntable and why would anyone want one? Two reasons, actually - one, to get all that lovely vinyl immortalised on CD; and two, to add a bunch of computer snap to a vinyl set. Let's take our points in order, first stopping to describe what the Universal Serial Bus turntable actually does.

The USB (that stands for Universal Serial Bus, which is a posh way of saying "that bit on the side of the computer that you can plug stuff into") turntable is a normal vinyl playing turntable that plugs into a USB port on a computer. The USB turntable sends the signals coming down the turntable arm and wire into the PC or laptop, in the same way that a regular turntable sends signals to a mixer. The computer effectively becomes the mixer, which means, as noted, two things - one, you can transfer all that vinyl into audio files and burn them to CDs; and two, that you can use programmes on the computer to mix and affect the music playing from the vinyl.

So: if one plugged a USB turntable into a computer, and then plugged that computer into a PA system, one would be able to use all sorts of flashy digital effects and programming to enhance one's set. These days, DJ programmes can do just about anything - from correcting slight mismatches in beats to full on scratching and juggling. Plus, of course, the entire effects one has access to - simple sound washes, sine waves, and the other lot. Take one or even a pair of Universal Serial Bus turntables, add a computer with a good DJ programme on it, and one has a full club sound system waiting to happen.

Immortalising vinyl on CD via a USB turntable is actually a pretty good idea. Even if one wishes to keep one's vinyl pristine and not get rid of it, having it all in the computer rather than in seventeen metal cases makes travelling to do DJ shows a lot easier. Why waste petrol, space and time carting all those records around when one can simply throw a laptop and a PA in the back of the car and get going?

There will of course be some vinyl junkies who disagree. The point holds even for them, though. At this end of the scale, the USB turntable can become a brilliant way to teach the art of DJ'ing without having to endanger those precious records. One simply records the vinyl via the USB link, practices with the files and the turntable (minus record) - and switches back to records when one feels confident enough.

How to Improve Your Studio PC's Audio

Are you trying to record music and sick and tired of the poor quality sound coming from your PC? Follow these tips to get better sound from your computer.

Buy Better Speakers

Better quality speakers are a must as the ones supplied with your computer are usually of poor quality. Don't be fooled by the "watts" sign on the boxes as they are usually in "PMPO" and these are very low in quality.

Look for studio monitors that are rated in "Watts RMS" as they are  higher quality speakers and also check that they are above 60 Watts RMS per speaker bass driver. I prefer above 80 Watts RMS, but it all depends on how much you can spend on the speakers.

If you really want to splash out, go for Active speakers. These are speakers with built in amplifiers.

Get a Better SoundCard

Again, soundcards supplied with PC's are usually of low quality and its usually the onboard sound which is part of the motherboard. If your computer is using the onboard sound setup, then a soundcard is a diffinate must.

If you are a home user and want surround sound then the Soundblaster cards are made for you. But musicians must go for external audio interfaces as these provide better quality sound and also proper inputs for recording instruments and vocals.

Get a Better Amplifier

If you have decided to use studio monitors that dont have their own amplifier (also known as passive speakers) then you are going to have to splash out on a "studio amp" or "reference amp".

Again, look for the "Watts RMS". The higher the Watts the better the amplifier. But, be sure never to turn your amplifier up too much otherwise you will have to spend more money on new studio monitors.

Fill Your Speaker Stands

When you buy speaker stands you will notice that they are hollow. You should fill the stands with sand or steal/lead shot. The reason for this is to improve the sound by making the bass solid and also to stop the stands from moving back and forth when the bass kicks in as this can change the acoustics as the sound hits different parts of the walls. But, please make sure that if you use lead shot that none of it can escape, you dont want to cause lead poisoning.

Bettering Your Gear Rig - Satellite Internet For Musical Shopping

Those who are diehard musicians often find their disposable income going to every possible piece of gear imaginable. Much to the confusion and occasional frustration of partners and spouses, musicians who are serious will spend hours coming pawn shops and thrift stores if there is a particular piece of equipment that they have their eye on. And if you're ever in a musician's home and wonder how they could ever possibly need that much stuff, don't forget to hide your surprise when they start talking about how incomplete their rig happens to be. The world of musicians is a confusing one, especially when you're dealing with gear heads.

And it's not just a city thing to be that into music. People who relocate to more rustic locales are often just as into adding to their collections. Plus, the space that comes with an affordable piece of land or house somewhere that's not the middle of Midtown Manhattan means a whole lot more room to store a bevy of drum kits, guitar amps, or vintage basses. While you might be dealing with dial-up instead of cruising along with satellite internet, rural musicians are still contentedly figuring out where in the world they can pick up an obscure 1950s Telecaster.

The best way to better your gear rig when you don't live in the middle of a city that's ripe for the picking is definitely via the world wide web, where this entire community of people can find their sub-niches. Think about this: it's pretty easy to set up a list of items wanted and items offered, and there are people who do this for everything from the original Moogs to obscure circuit-bent pedals. This means that a die-hard musician who is on the lookout for a new piece of equipment can not only find where to buy it, but can also read reviews of it and see demos that other musicians happened to upload to YouTube.

With satellite internet, you can surf the web a whole lot faster, and that means that combing through all of this content becomes a whole lot easier. If you're living off the grid with someone who is really into obscure acoustic guitars or a particular type of mandolin and are personally sick of having discussions about pieces of equipment that you don't want to talk about anymore, investing in a dish connection means sitting contentedly while your partner chats on the world wide web. This can often be a great way to focus that drive and determination to find a particular item, as it is a whole lot easier and more cost-efficient to scour the internet, rather than the tri-state area.

With satellite, musicians and their loved ones can finally take refuge in something that makes chatting with other like-minded people easy, and finding demonstrations of beloved pieces of gear even easier. And for those who are constantly in the market to find that just-right piece, stepping beyond the forums is a piece of cake. Everywhere from EBay to Harmony Central to Craigslist has a way to stumble across what might possibly be the guitar or drum kit that will absolutely change your life. And anyone who wants to ditch their old Technics turntables in favor of switching to Pioneer CDJs will find selling old gear just as easy as buying it.
