I want to ask you, is this is normal, if the OD1 = 0 the OD2 = 8 or more Gain = 6, I have no sound, until I change OD1 from 0 to ....., are normal?
This is El territory, most people would never do this (but El plays here sometimes), OD1 adjusts the gain in the 1st tube stage, OD2 adjusts the gain in the 2nd tube stage, if there is no gain in the 1st tube stage, then there is no signal for the 2nd tube stage to process...
Guitar > MP1 gain stage 1 (1st tube stage (OD1)), > gain stage 2 (OD2) 2nd gain stage, if gain stage 1 = 0 what is there for the next gain stage (OD2) to process ??
yes this is normal,like R says you need something to begin with.
Thank's ! TRUE !
On the Paul Gilbert Patch you will find some tone with OD1 = 0, so I think than't path are not real from PG.
Jaja funny you asked because I was going to make a thread involving this since last week I got a real killer tone and I wanted to post it but I havent got time. Hope I can tomorow :)
Hey El, do tell, look forward to the killer patch :thumb-up:
Here it I made a thread on my findings :banana-guitar: http://adadepot.com/index.php?topic=1331.0 (http://adadepot.com/index.php?topic=1331.0)
Hey s2pro, try the patch with OD1 = 10 (maybe a typo ?), and 10 is more where PGs' sounds would be... just a thought.
