Drive pedals MIMIC?

[pima1234]

The Drive block models aren't MIMIC'd, right?

So, how should we try and determine what the maximum drive amount of the Fuzz Face should be (for example)?

Thanks.

I find setting the Fuzz Face drive level to the amount that cleans up when you roll the guitar volume back to 7 or so for single coils and 5 or so with humbuckers to be pretty close to a real one. That's how I set the transistor bias on the real ones I build and it works a treat. My 2 cents

So drive sims are not MIMIC'd, right? I mean, it's no problem at all, because of course I just use my ear, but it is interesting to try some extreme settings just to see what they will do.
