I was try all the different amps within the same preset and somehow had engaged a post filter that was making the Fat boosts on some amps sound *way* over the top.
Better now, yet I still feel that the ODS is sub-par to most of the new models, but this is also true with other modelers, including the KPA. I wish the AFX had a direct mix parameter (similar the KPA Clarity control), as this seems to help amps that sound a bit too loose or undefined... it seems like the ODS model could benefit from this, imho.After resolving this issue, is your opinion of the ODS Lead and Mesa MK 2 & 3 high gains any better now?

Does the new Definition control help? What exactly is lacking in the ODS & Mesa models (I've never owned either)?
But that direct signal is taken after the Amp, so it's affect is only on the Cab - funny, but I guess what we're discussing is similar to an 'air' parameter for the amp blockI thought that's "Air" in the cab block, no?

Sure it is. What are you asking for? A portion of the preamp signal that bypasses the power amp? Or what do you mean by "processed together in the power amp section"?
Both variants sound strange to me when the aim is to replicate the genuine inner workings of a tube amp.

Lighten up guys - 'Fat switch fiasco' was simply a typically overblown 'National Enquirer' headline! (sorry if I'm the only one who found it funny)![]()
..... It's generally considered to be detrimental to the tone so I didn't model that.
FWIW: Out of phase/uncontrolled signal leakage is a very different thing than what we're discussing in this thread.And I would like to thank you for that Cliff! I love V6!
