    All Tube Amp 100w EL34 power, two channels each with: 1 master indpendant, a boost, one 3-band legalization and a volume that serves as gain. The clean channel (priori, but rather the two ...) is also a dot bright switch and a switch notch. Reverb and prsence gnrales.
    Effects loop with level SETTING THE for send and return, to also use these connections to use the amp as pramp to another power amp (the Rivera remains in office) and return to receive a collection outdoor pramp.

    Endless possibilities, especially when it comes to the chapter.

    UTILIZATION

    The basic configuration is apparently simple. Channel 1 is rather ddi saturation and channel for clean sounds. DIFFERENT rglages the switch and immediately offer a wide range of sounds. The connection "rear" requires more expertise. It took me a download on the site record in English of course, and I'm not quite sure to have understood everything, including the connection of speakers and HP (they are not clear trs on impdance) or on the meaning of notch. The booklet is lighter (with a little practice manuals in English) on the manirede to your sound.

    Therefore possible standards, but it takes time to know the craft. Volume management loop requires a little time (in config 'fx loop) to get the right rglage.

    SOUNDS

    The sound ... Okay, so the trip Rivera is to make dots of a channel amps typ English and another typ US (California should say). Résumé and a channel Fender aucanal Marshall would be a bit short.

    Channel-1 (English so) is typical EL34. It is close to Marshall. It can help you get clean sounds, all types of crunch and overdrive well supplied, once the boost that Inrush as on channel 2, also increases the volume. The boost volume and gain are not adjustable, but it very well back of all fawns.

    The grain is of great quality regardless of the saturation level (which becomes trs rare!), Trs expressive, rich in harmonics, etc.. There are only the best of marshall on this channel (think Gary Moore, Jeff Beck, Santana and even ...), rgl clean, it's still warm trs. It would be shame not only to confine the distorted sounds as clean and crunch are beautiful. The middle rglage influence the type of grain and gain research (just as in Brunetti), while the treble rglera the edge of your sound. Blues, Funk, Rock, Hard Rock ... this channel will sound too fat for extreme styles, in any case, he stopped in heavy (in the lot, depending on your guitar of course)

    -Channel 2 (then Yankee): By a sleight of going electronic, Rivera sometimes get the typical US which is more particularly 6L6. Attention, it is not quite Fender, there is a small combo from mesa on that channel. on the other hand, even default on Fender: the maximum crunch (with boost) will trs draft, especially with a guitar ... couillue say. This channel is the most comprehensive rglages issue. The EQ, master volume and can sculpt sounds typs fender, mesa (is not that correct in life!) And others. Both say it is the clean sounds that made the reputable Rivera.
    With bright, we add the well-slamming "twang". The "notch" him as a phase inversion, the sound becomes less round, less pais, more crystalline or sharp as you rglages. The Ninja boost (it is designed that name!) You add fat, gain and volume - a bit too much, the diffrence level is too high, and rendering can be quite rough in del a certain rate of gain. Just over dlicat rgler the rsultats nanmoins are amazing: you will get are real Blues, Jazz, Funk, Ska, Reggae, etc. Police-U2 style.

    Overall, this amp well loaded down estgalement mdium

    OVERALL OPINION

    I tried a lot of things before I DCID (I nearly cracked on Brunetti, excellent but not as versatile). My main amp is a JCM 800 2210 2 channel (ie the one with the same low saturation rgime). I love it, but I have long sought a pleasant change, without finding my happiness. I sold engl (classic50, powerball) peavey (classic 30, head 50) Fender Blues Junior. I had a nice clean sound, rather warm, and the saturated gain with respect rsonnable guitar and my game (so no gain type canal3 marshall, mesa or engl nor too compressed.

    The brands I have mentioned tend surenchrir on the gain and color, so they all become ultra typs. At the time, it sduisant, but it gets stuck with the color of a particular brand, without being able to REALLY carving his own sound. The Riveras are low because their sound is rpandus priori tape the eye. There appear to be less this or that when tested. With a little finger you can venture into the world each of these marks, without being a slave, with one amp.

    Most:
    Possibility of infinite rglages
    Trs connection options practices
    Trs great sound quality in the majority of musical styles
    Grain volumes every exploitable (and therefore, with everything, ultimate weapon in the studio or on scne)
    Robustness (solid construction - see less ...) and reliability (I live in proximity to a TV-Radio director, no parasites)
    Cheap, finally, if we Whereas we have two amps in one.

    The -:
    The weight! [Correction: only 26 pounds, but as it is 2x12, fortunately there are the grips latrales!]
    Able to switch the reverb or effects loop to toe.
    Power rgler the "Ninja" boost.

    If you are allergic to distos modern to vintage amps no limits, or simply that you love as much as Marshall Fender, without being convinced by the quality of current products: go for it!

    R-100212 is no longer produced, but is in the opportunity (as in my case) Note that a few equivalents (30-50W) with essentially the same function but subtle sound diffrence as mod the R-55 112, R-30112, Chubster, Clubster (indeed, the manual is common these amps). Good hunting
