I’m usually using something similar to your described approach- like an edge of breakup/crunchy Plexi or JCM 800 tone that I’ll hit with a Klon style boost to push up into the higher gain areas.
I find it easier to start with a capture that has the gain you want and then roll the volume down for clean or add a bit of boost and dirt for higher gain.
Thank you, both of you! That’s great to hear, as that’s exactly how I’d want to approach it.
Basically, exactly what I would do with a real amp, except with the caution about not clipping the input converter.
Is the input particularly easy to clip? I mean, I know you can’t just do a huge boost like with a tube amp, but compared to something like the Helix, Fractal stuff, etc?
