Octave Distortion Setting

sprint

Axe-Master
I never previously liked this drive much as it always sounded really over the top to me, mostly due to the Fw Rect clip type which, if changed to some other type, tamed the beast down but to my ears, then lost too much of the Octave effect.

Anyway, after fooling with this drive for a while today I found that setting the mix very low (i.e. 5-8%) and with level at around 7, it really does the trick nicely in front of a high gain amp to add in just the right amount of that Octave distortion thing. Very nice! (I love it when my lightbulb finally comes on for some of these gems).
