Setting it to 2 works for every amp I have added it to so far. In a few cases, I had to back the amp input gain off a bit so clean amps were still clean, but everything just sounds better with the new firmware so far.
Yes
I set mine up with the I/O > Audio > Out1 at +4db (not -10) and the front Out1 knob at 3:00 with the white dot. That produces a signal on my Universal Audio console of an average around -12db or a little hotter. I go right into my CLR Neos that way.
I'll take a look at that preset. The Micro boost is a clean boost that gives "lift" to single coil pickups without adding distortion. But Cliff changed the Ampeg SVT model awhile back that may have messed that and a few other Dumble-style presets up in the bonus section after firmware 1.x, so have to look...Dear Austin,
First of all, I'd like to thank you for your amazing work! I'm an absolute beginner and a new user of an Axe Fx III and your presets are a huge help to me especially at a stage like this when I literally have no idea about anything. Your presets sound amazing! However, if you don't mind, can I ask a few things from you? First of all, I'm just wondering if you have the update already for the 1000+ Naked Amps TonePack you've mentioned in your previous post in 2018? Also, I found that within the "Strat Vaughan a Bees" preset the "Lenny?" preset has a micro distortion and it doesn't really sound like Lenny to me with that. Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? As Lenny definitely doesn't supposed to have that kind of distortion on it...and I'm pretty sure that's not how you set the preset either...I'm sorry it just seems weird to me....Also, there is the first scene which is called JVSquad: MUST!!GtrVol@5!! which again has the same micro boost.
Many thanks in advance!

@curious - don't laugh at me. I have loaded up 10.01 and the latest Axe-Edit but I can't find any such "Gain Enhancer" control to play with -- can you or someone here tell me exactly is this located? I have looked at every amp block page in latest Axe-Edit plus on the hardware...just point me in the right direction please...
Output Compressor tab in the Amp block... It is one of the compressor type options.
Is it showing up yet in Axe-Edit? called “Gain Enhancer?” Because I didn’t see it in latest version of Axe-Edit. Different name maybe? Just on hardware still?
Yes it is in AxeEdit . In the Dynamics tab of the Amp Block.
If you are in Axe edit go to dynamics, there you have the output compressor/ out comp type , choose gain enhancer
AH! You have to pick it from a pull down menu - not wondered I couldn't find it. Thanks for the assist. I thought it was just a knob 0 to 10 somewhere...

EDIT - the below I wrote before is wrong (that's what I get for speculating before I go to the machine to check).
I got a chance to check and the firmware v5+ version of "Lenny?" scene in the Vaughan-A-Bees preset in Naked Amps bonus presets is fine. It works fine on Fw10 BTW
Just turn off the MicroBoost drive pedal if you don't think it's clean enough.
In Axe III, The SV Bass 1 is the original bass amp model, and SV2 is the louder, mid range one. But in Axe-Fx ARES, the origin SV Bass become SV2 - that is what confused me, and caused me to write the below, as I have been working on the 200+ Bass Tonepack for Axe-Fx.
(ignore the below!)
I believe the Ampeg SVT (SV Bass) is set to SV1 in the Lenny and another preset, when it should be SVT 2. This change happened when Cliff added a new model in a firmware but made it SVT1, instead of making it SVT 2. (Meaning, it was originally SV then when we got two, SV 2 became the old SV 1).
I did do some extensive tweaks in the advanced pages so it's not as simple as changing the amp type (which will reset the setting). I will try to re-do this preset to fix all that and maybe post it on Axe=Change this weekend, or maybe just the affected SRV Steel String Singer parts.... thanks.,
Ah fair enough! What do you mean by Axe=Change this weekend? Where are you gonna post it? Sorry, I'm not English so I might not understand some stuff you'd do.
Axe Change is where user post presets and cabs to share....Ah fair enough! What do you mean by Axe=Change this weekend? Where are you gonna post it? Sorry, I'm not English so I might not understand some stuff you'd do.
Also,
Is this the update you've mentioned in that 2018 post?
