I have been using an FRFR with my soul band and am happy with the sound - I just use two settings 1.Clean for the rhythm work
2. Overdrive (using same settings but with the (Xotic) AC drive block on.
Lastnight I rehearsed with my blues trio and for this I need a bit of growl in my sound - when I used a normal Guitar cab I got this by adding a 808 drive block in the chain with the 'drive' setting barely on - this gave me a slight SRV overdrive. Using this setting lastnight but with the Q12 FRFR sounded dreadful - I had a sound of a guitar with a cheap overdrive pedal on it? No dynamics and didn't sound natural at all.
Is this the nature of the FRFR goose foe Clean or full on distortion but not good in between ( that natural overdrive valve sound) -
