I was hoping somebody might be able to point me in the right direction. This was mentioned briefly on the other Tremolux thread but can anybody tell me where to start?
The problem is that when the tremolo circuit is engaged I can not turn up the intensity or the speed to any useful level before loud motorboating kicks in and really overpowers the effect.
I just had the amp serviced and the tech guy said everything was ok, just that some of these amps are different and have different characteristics, values drift etc .etc.. (This is a white Tremolux 6G9A circuit,) I took this to mean that he either did not know what to do or didn't want to if it was a laborious process. In any case the amp is otherwise working well, has new power tubes, newer filter caps and the preamp tubes were checked and seem to be ok.
I also have a brown tolex Vibrolux that has virtually the same circuit. On that amp the tremolo works fine, no motorboating and it works great.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
