I didn't use this method to make any patches, but one thing you said stuck in my mind when I watched the video, that you tend to turn the depth to 0 on amps.
Today, after flipping through a bunch of random amps, which I tend to do when I'm bored, my main patch didn't quite sound right, had some strange quality I couldn't really put my finger on (ear fatigue probably playing a part there). Sounds fine on fresh ears after not playing guitar for an hour or so though.
I tried doing what you do, pulled resonance down to 0 (it was at around 5, which most of my non-recto patches seem to be) and after some minor eq tweaks, it does sound much better, and that strange characteristic was gone - which apparently was just too much sub bass rumbling.
Depth is just one of those things I've always turned up on amps since I like a nice chunky palm mute. I love those 'breakthrough' moments where you figure out a new way to do things.
