Just played it at home, Its Dead quiet, Gain on 4 Blows the roof off, Treble 5.5 Bass on 5 and It sounds Great, With 2 Knobs now the Dummies Like Me can figure it out. Big Thanks To Brad Sarno for Making us steelers some Mighty fine Products, And Thanks For the Rack bracket Its Mounted and Ready For action. Randy G. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) |

Yep...the V8 Octal is in my secret corner in the studio where I play my special guitars with a TC reverb pedal. Inspiring! |

Randy, Lee or others..
I'm wondering what amp/speakers/efx you are using and your signal path.
I've got mine in a rack with the output into a Nanoverb 2 feeding a Genz Benz 300w Class D amp.
Sounds pretty good to me.
I like to gain it up and let it talk/groan a little if you know what I mean..
Although I've seen some guys say no black box needed, I do like the pickup loading I get from the Revelation so I got a black box coming to put in the rack. Anyone using a BB with the V8? |

I'm using this into a Furlong CB12. I love the simplicity of it all. I've had a lot of different reverbs in a lot of different amps and boxes. I played through the mono Wet Reverb and that was it.
I also really like the XLR-send on the back of the V8. Now, when an engineer approaches me onstage or in the studio with that "how do I handle this pedal steel thing here" look, I just point to the jack on the back. Again, real simple.

I use basically the same setup as Eric except a TC Hall of Fame reverb. |
