Despite reading so many posts regarding the wonders of the drive pedals TS Rat etc, when I add before the amp in chain it changes tone completely despite contant tweaks. I've read some put the amp gain high and drive pedal less gain, or is it the other way around? What I'm trying is to push from my rhythm tone to solo with a boost of volume. Don't kill me on this but as superb as this is against my old Boss GT-100, that had a switch with no tone or anything, all it did was boost volume.
Crude as it was, it was easy to dial in and use as volume boost. I've tried all boosts but still can't belive people like Tony Iommi and Brian May only used a treble boost as everyone describes, I've tried those and they do exactly what is on the tin. Boost treble! I'm sure it's in this magic box of tricks but can't nail it.
So do I boost gain on amp or use drive pedal with increased distortion although it changes the tone radically? Lol or other way around?
