Yeah that's the way it's supposed to be, it's correct, you have to turn up the Output Level on the Output mixer at the very end of the chain as well it's set at -13dB, ya gotta turn that up.The preset may have showed up a little funky when I downloaded it.
I have a Shimmer Drive in the Drive block that was not engaged when I downloaded it.
And a Comp engaged at end of the chain after the CAB and then after the Reverb.
Not sure how to insert Snapshots here in the post.
The Comp at the end is the new Optical compressor cliff added & is set to Line. The one at the very beginning is OFF is set to Instrument. Use them if you like em, if not it's fine as well. I play a lot at lowerish volume at home so I'll use a little extra Compression to suck a bit more sustain to get that controlled feedback earlier cause the puppies don't like it too loud when they are inside .
The drive block I was usually leaving off myself, as I was mostly writing chordy stuff so that edge of breakup tone was perfect for what I was doing, then if I wanted to mess around with some lead stuff I'd kick on the Shimmer, but now with that FET Preamp, I may rethink that cause it cleans up so quickly & Nicely with the guitar volume, but rips with just a twist & a pickup change. Really cool. Either way, a lot of territory can be covered in there.
Edit:
One thing to note about turning off the Compressor at the end of the chain, this will effect the Reverb & Delay trails, so you may want to turn them up.
