If this doesn't work, reseat the video card. Double check the VGA cable
connection between the card and the monitor (both ends). Reboot.
Good luck

I don't know if it is the PSU or not, but if you're running 4 x EDS cards
and a full load of HD's, you're probably skating pretty close to the edge.

OK, so maybe the recorder in it doesn't sound as good as Paris. Sure, it's
only 16 bit, and only 8 tracks...
....but it really is impressively easy to use. Convenient. Obviously no good
for any actual release stuff, but for mucking around, excellent, and for
looping... ;o)
Well looping is just the best. It's not actually the best looper in the world
as such. Some features of dedicated loopers, like reverse for example, are
absent. On the other hand you do get 8 tracks to loop on which isn't bad,
and what I especially like is that it has track buttons like a proper recorder,
so you can create 4 loops which play together, and then mute any one, or
two, or whatever, and then bring those loops back later on if you like. This
allows a lot of flexability in terms of building a peice.
I especially like the way the thing works. With some peices of gear you just
never get along with them and feel like it's a fight to get the job done,
but others are intuative and you find yourself agreeing with all the design
decisions, and when you disagree, half an hour later you end up going "Ah,
THAT's why they've done it that way!!". The GNX4 is one of the latter for
me. How it's laid out makes sense to me. There's a lot to this box, and I
reckon I've got a hold on about 3/4 of it or more already. That's not bad
for two nights mucking about.
As far as the sounds go, I haven't plugged it in to Paris or anything yet
to have a good listen, but so far the sounds have mostly impressed me. I've
heard it said that the actual amp models on this box aren't entirely accurate,
but that it's strength lies in the "WARP" feature, which allows you to make
combinations of two seperate amp/cabinet setups. From what I've heard so
far this does sound like a powerful tool. It does seem to be a true warp
function, and some very effective results can be had by criss crossing between
different cabinet models. I've heard there is a set of some 1000 odd presets
you can now buy which utilise the warp feature, which I'm considering purchasing.
Even the virtual pickup settings seem to work quite well... humbucker to
single coil and visa versa. I was expecting some cheap EQ effect, but whatever
they've done sounds like it's much more effective.
I can't wait to hook it up to a keyboard and

Rudy Bear? Wasn't he a character in an A.A. Milne book?
:)What sounds does your computer make when it boots up.....beeps etc.?
It maybe the video card need reseating.

I've stripped it down to mobo(no pci,video cards or ram)and cpu.
Still all I get on power up is lights and fans come on thats it.
I'm beginning to think its my mobo or cpu.I might still try a
new PS first.
Thanks,

My Digitech RP2000, a previous version of their amp modeler/FX pedal, is
a real workhorse. It sounds good, is built solidly and has been very
dependable for gigging with acoustic guitar, electric guitar and violin.

>>Yeh, this thing does seem to be built very solidly. Time will tell of course,
but I'm not afraid to stick the boot into it when hitting a footswitch. And
heavy too. The thing is made of solid metal. No muckin' about. ;o)

>Hi,
When I am talking about Avalon I am NOT talking about 737 kind of preamps.
I am talking the solid state A class M5 (mono channell) and the AD2022.
These preamps are BIG sounding.
I have Great River ,9098, Telefunken V72, V77, Grace 101, Eureka (by the way
this sounds very very good if you change the 5534 opa's with AD797 !!), DBX
376/386 (these sound very sweet with Telefunken ECC82 tubes)
The M5 Avalon has the biggest sound of all...
It is extremely fast and aggresive sounding and it has the most "forward"
character" of all.
I encourage to rent the Avalon M5 or AD2022 , the Great River NV and FMR
Real nice preamps.
Regards,
Dimitrios
