I'm using a Boogie MKV using clean channel only, with a 4cm setup.
I have a slight distortion on my sound, and am spending a bit of time today to see if I can get it sorted out.
I have unplugged the send/return lines and am at the moment working on the 'front end' signal. Outputs 1&2 full up (unity)
It is considerably quieter with the guitar into the Axe compared to direct so I need to increase the level in the Axefx by about +12db. As far as I see it I have two choices 1. The input+gate level or the FXloop (main level).
Is there a particular one I should use? I have noticed a dramatic change of sound with my drive block engaged...
If I increase the input+gate by +12db the drive (bb) is quite soft and spongy feel.
If I leave the input/gate to 0 and increase the FXLoop by +12db the drive has a massive midrange boost and a little honky.
Is there one I should use over the other? Or is it just a question of taste etc etc...
Hope someone can help.
