Usually 2.5

Gotcha. Yeah I doubt 2.5 vs 4 will make a huge difference. Even at 4 I doubt there is any power tube saturation or distortion (which imo you don't want in amps like the 5150)

Just futzed around the FAS 6160 and it is phenomenal. The Brootalz is TIGHT

aShUaLLy- Give it a shot, there’s a fairly noticeable difference. I just dialed a scene in last night using this so it’s fresh in my memory, there’s a bit more mids and it’s not quite as tight at 4, but 2.5 is pretty much the sweet spot for the tones one generally associates with a 5150.

But yeah give it a shot @MTB1973

Maybe thatll give it a little more warmth/mids you are missing as Drew said

Just checked - I had it set at 2.5 for my current patch.

I have also been trying the FAS Skull Crusher.

As an aside; I also ran my Recto Vintage Red preset through the Multiwatt power amp. Ho.ly.fuck.

Modern power amp setting is the way to go. And my god is it good! OOF!

on a real 5150 4 is where the poweramp starts distorting and anything above that sounds like ass IMO. All the best tones are in that area below 4

For what it's worth (aka I have the house to myself today); I just went between 2.5 and 4 using the Multiwatt as a power amp and the same using the LX. The 4 to 2.5 difference was a lot more apparent with the Multiwatt than the LX. Still usable. Kinda of a good in between of 3 was nice on it but that's my ears splitting hairs from 4 hours on and off of loud as fuck playing

Adjust to taste as always with this stuff \m/

It’s on the FM9 factory preset preview AdminM posted but there were a few presets in that bank that need to be redone in beta 9
Not sure if it is the artist ones

I thought it was available for FM9 as part of the updated factory presets.

Worked in 8.02 not sure in 9

Is there a goto expression pedal people are using? I've got a decent mooer one but looking to add a second and might as well get something a bit more robust. This one's a bit plasticky... does the job but I wouldnt order a second kind of thing.

I use the Fractal EV-1 or EV-2. Built like a tank.
