FULLDRIVE 2 & IIC+

Hey! Does anyone have the Fulldrive 2 and the IIC+? I'd like to know how do they sound together.. Petrucci used those things for SDOIT tone..
Look here..

The setting you have to dial in the C+ with the Fulldrive2 is ont the first head.

Were going to start calling you Nicko Petrucci !!!!

They are cheap enough to buy and turn if you dont like it.
All of JP's setting in his rig are set to clean except the bottom IIC+.
What is up with that, not that I read into the pro setup hype.

Yes, I have a C+ and a fulldrive II. (also a keeley compressor). I like my set up. I needed the versatility and the two channel C+ is not versatile on the fly. I use my C+ as a Clean and then a grit drive whereas I kick in the full drive for overdrive rhythym and overdrive lead (with boost channel). Some may gasp that I am not using the C+ lead as my dirty lead but more of a grit lead (slight breakup) but when I set my clean channel where I want it, that's what works best for me. (BTW, I am using a PRS McCarty)

Probably the bottom is the main tone slave driver and the 2 clean ones are Left and Right for powering his FX rack.

I used my PRS McCarty / MKIIc+ set up at the weekend and was disapointed with the lead. Mind you I have been using a triaxis /20-20 setup for the past 6 months, so I guess my mind set was else where with regard to the lead tone.
