I'm getting close to the sound of Carlos Santana from the 80's (warmth and sweetness) but I'm missing a hint of nasal grain in the overdrive while having clarity...
What should I change in this set to get the sound I want?

RH1: GAIN 8 - TREBLE 7 - BASS 0 - MIDDLE 7 - PRESENCE CTL 5 - MASTER 2
RH2: GAIN 8 - TREBLE 8 - BASS 0 - MIDDLE 7 - PRESENCE CTL 4 (PULL) - MASTER 5
LEAD: LEAD GAIN 8 - LEAD TREBLE 7- LEAD BASS 3 - LEAD MIDDLE 7 - PRESENCE CTL 0 (PULL) - MASTER 5
