Big thumbs up on the Bogner Blue! As I was learning to groom the Eleven Rack into/as my rig, (stage volume was hard to eq)I went out and bought a Bogner Blue pedal to satisfy me for the first month live while getting my patches up and going.
The Eleven R continues to make me happy!
First chance to run direct out to PA was a joy/easy. The next festival PA I used it I gave the soundman my direct out and he asked me if I like the sound of my amp, I said of course especially with the Eleven Rack! He said if I like the sound he should mic that sound. I continued to offer the XLR cable in my hand to him asking to try both and if direct out don't get it, turn it off. After the set I asked how did it sound and he said fine and he ran both mic and direct at same level.
At the first gig going direct I went out in front of the mains and it sounded better at that distance than any other miced guitar I had heard at that distance.
Did not want to derail the thread,I just got excited about my experience.
