As the Reactor has become the industry standard for taking modeling tools live some manufacturers have expressed interest in develop ing presets for their modelers that are Reactor specific.
14 Good Housekeeping Output Tube Bias Your new REACTOR 112 has an internally mounted variable bias control. The bias control is used to set the idle current in the output tubes, pr operly matching amp’s performance characteristics to the type of tubes used.
