FF Friends, now that I have a basic grasp of how to make presets, set levels, etc. I’m now trying to figure out the best way to create a boost in my presets for soloing that works for live setting running to FOH. I see folks using a filter block a lot and that seems fine but uses some CPU. I have also seen folks use scene levels to create scenes with a boost. Here’s what I have done in my Plexi preset (thanks @Burgs for great vid): Scene 1 is amp cab and rev - basic. In Scene 2 I boosted level by +4db and added delay X. I set one of the foot switches to toggle between 1/2. In Scene 3 I also raise level by 4db and add a Drive set to add some gain and delay Y which is longer. I set one of the foot switches to Scene 3. This seems to work because I have two good solo options by stomping on a foot switch. If I’m in Scene 3 I can simply stomp on the Scene 1/2 toggle to get home to Scene 1. I went to VU and the other meter to make sure the boost was not causing any clipping (thanks @chris for great vids). I had to adjust level of Scene 1 down a bit to have headroom for scenes 2 and 3.
Would love to get thoughts on how folks are doing this and pros and cons of each method.
Cheers.
