I just played around with the FB Comb filter on a high gain patch and wow! I've always had trouble getting high gain stuff to sound "professional." It either sounded too thin and fizzy or felt uneven like tubes not being driven enough. Adding the filter after the cab, roll up the depth until it starts to sound good, then roll off the volume and/or low end a bit. It suddenly has that sound I haven't been able to acheive. I was then able to dial back the gain for a more natural sound but it didn't feel like I was losing a ton of presence or saturation.
I am playing direct to monitors and not though amps, so I'm not sure how it would work in live situations. But it does seem like it's a big step to a more record-ready direct sound. I need to play with it some more.
