Obtaing A Clean Tone On The ADxxVT Amps
I have been trying to obtain a nice clean sound on my VOX AD30VT.
Single notes and light arpeggios sound pretty good. But when I strum chords, they all have that crunchy sound. I am using Boutique, Black 2X12 and Tweed 4X10 amp modelers. Normally I dial in the following settings:
Power Level – 75%
Gain – 12:00
Volume – 9:00
Treble 12:00
Middle – 2:00
Bass – 12:00
Master – 3:00
Now I read on one of those “other” websites that you can not over drive the Boutique and Black 2X12 modelers with the Gain.
When I play the same chord progression on my Peavey 110, 40 watt Solid State amp, the chords are nice and clean. This is what makes me think it is incorrect settings for the AD30VT.
I will be gigging for the first time next month and want to learn how to program the AD30VT. I have 4 practice sessions to learn. Any help would be immensely appreciated.
