Start with the Preset Leveling tool, because it makes it easier to manage the Amp and Out levels.Quick question - leveling across Scenes. Where is the best place to do it?
I use Amp Level to control the volume between scenes, which is also how the Factory presets do it. Whichever level control you use, make sure all the blocks have an even volume when you switch them between bypassed and engaged before you level the scenes, otherwise it complicates everything.This is where I miss the snapshot parameter control in the Helix... In the FM9, I can't use a block/channel that's shared across scenes for leveling between scenes. The best place then seems to be Scene Levels in the output block but I've read about some of the pitfalls of that, any other options?
It seems kind of silly to load up the same amp in a different channel just to be able to change a setting across scenes, e.g. gain for a crunch tone, but I guess it's either that or getting into scene controllers, which was recommended in a different thread to only use as a last resort.
Scene controllers are a different way to accomplish the same thing, with pluses and minuses to either way.
The amp switching is so fast now that I don't worry about it; It's faster than my tube amps can switch channels.
