Hi All,
I've been having some difficulty with controlling volumes when switching from rythym to lead playing using my tubescreamer. On the clean channel I get a nice boost with just enough overdrive.
On the dirty channel I hear a bit more overdrive but I don't get anywhere enough of a signal boost to cut through the mix.
I have tried to boostteh signal by rolling on the guitar volume but I prefer using the pedal.
Both channels are set at approx. the same volume before I use the boost. I tried the tubescreamer, blues driver and a SS pramp pedal with the same results.
Could someone explin why there is a different increase in volumes across the 2 channels?
I tried putting the boost pedal(s) in the effects loop and found the boost was consistently more to my liking between the 2 channels. I then read that this was potentially harmful for the amp because you are putting a larger signal into the amp than would come from the amp's preamp.
Does anyone have any experience they can share with me? Thanks for reading.
