Clean on Channel 2?

[mdoyle]

I have a 1992 Rev F Dual Recto (#635). My absolute favorite setting is with channel 1 set to Orange Hi Gain, with an Xotic EP Booster in front. Sounds WONDERFUL.

BUT, I'm really struggling trying to get a decent clean tone from Channel 2. Is it possible??

I have my Orange set to clean and my Red Cloned to Orange. I can't get a good clean from the Red.

I considered doing that, but I'm not 100% sure that cloning Red to Orange sounds exactly the same as Orange.

Define "decent". What, specifically, are you looking for?

 

[mdoyle]

Just a passable clean tone to play some 'less than mid-gain' parts. Doesn't need to be crystal clean.

Just needs to be cleaner than rolling back the volume one the dirty channel.

Yeah the orange is pretty decent clean. The problem I have with the red is that I can't get it loud enough without introducing some gain and its just not as bright.

 

[mdoyle]

My problem is that I'm using the Orange for Hi Gain, so I'm left with the Red. And, I can't get any kind of clean from the Red channel.

I wish I could clone Red to Green!

It sounds like you need a Roadster
