[Harp-L] Re: ART Tube MP for PA



John, I can't speak to your experience with the product, as I don't even know how it works or how it may have interacted with your other equipment.  But I know that I heard some good distortion from it last night, and numerous people in the audience agreed, including the jam host, Dan Treanor, who is a great harp player himself and knows a LOT more about gear than I do.  Perhaps the disclaimer "Your Mileage May Vary" is appropriate in this case.  I've played through this PA many times, so I know the ART Tube MP is the reason for the distortion I wanted...there were no other variables.
