A place to talk about the music of the Grateful Dead

What main preamp is this intended to back up?I use an amp for my main rig either my Twin or my Mesa Mark IV - though I hate having to haul both amps with me. I have used my Lexicon MPX G2 as a direct to mixer unit but not totally thrilled with the clean sounds. I would just plug it in direct in case my amp gave out.

What main preamp is this intended to back up?Thought the EXACT same thing at first but most SBD's I've plugged into either had reverb per channel or 'verb by submix so it's been available. Also, playing dry isn't the worst thing in the world!
