Outdoors with a tube amp

I play a regular outdoor gig throughout the Summer here in the UK which has my trio set up under a band stand with open sides but overhead cover. I have recently purchased a tube amp and it got me thinking if outside playing can damage a tube amp. The gigs are May - September and many of them are in the evening finishing at 10pm.

dbx 386 schematics/technical knowledge

Hi all,
my dbx 386 has started giving me some horrendous noises on one channel. I've tried switching the tubes between channel 1 and 2, and the same channel still has the problem, so obviously my tubes are fine. Does anyone know where I might get a hold of some schematics so I can track down the problem?

Alternatively, can anyone suggest where to start looking?

Schematic For Neve/Shep 31105

Hey,

I am looking for a schematic for an old Neve 31105 Mic Pre. The reason is that the studio I work at has a few that are in need of repair. Our tech said he could do it if he can get a schematic. I am aware that many schematics are under copyright and so any other useful information on these would help as well. Thanks!

2nd Order and 3rd Order Harmonic Generators

For sometime now I have looking all over the net for a thread about the various ways to spice up your mic pre or compressor or well anything…. by adding a little subtle distortion.

Boxes like SSL alpha and UA twin infinity pre add a 2nd or 3rD harmonic generator that allows the user to dial in a bit of distortion.
