Increase NFB or add 150k ground to wiper on gain 1. No idea what you have currently.
Hi Duane, I tried to increase NFB, this is around 82K (8ohm), 470p presence

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/5zy3zr7w ... vcx7u&dl=0

Then I tried 150k on gain potentiometer, same NFB parameters, both recordings with Master on 2 and gain on 6 with attenuator.

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/swbx13l6 ... 6avs3&dl=0

Maybe I need to work a little bit on amp EQ or use different resistor on gain. What do you think?

Thank you!

Try 100k 8r NFB then the equivalent of 100k 4r if you want more bottom.
.1u presence
Leave the 150k
Turn gain 1 to around 6
Presence on 5
Master to taste - probably 1 to 3
All other controls around 6 - the EQ should be pretty sensitive, so make small EQ changes.

PM your specs. I don't recall the specifics.

Hi Duane, I did what you said and I think now is more fun to play. This was a quick recording, first part with 150k//330k on NFB and second part (2:51) with 150k//470k. I think I still have to set gain and EQ better, this was GBM on 6 T4 P5 M2.5. I think I should set gain or bass lower.

Thank you very much!

Might be the recording but sounds like the gain needs to back off a bit. Maybe go back to 270k or bump the control down. If you have 150k parallel with 100k on 8r tap, that is too much feedback IMO. 270k // 150k would be my limit.

Thank you very much for your help Duane, now I have a potentiometer in parallel with the 150k resistor. I have not measured the value but based on the position I estimate that it will be approximately 280k in parallel with 150k. I think I should try lowering the gain a little too

This is with less gain, I think I should back off the gain some more.

Now work on either a lil less feedback, the peaker, prior to gain 1 or decrease tail. It needs more bottom. Has a lil too much highs.
