I spent some time with my new Roadster last night and after an hour of knob turning I reached around the back of the amp and engaged the FX Hard Bypass. Holy *&^%$!!! That REALLY opens the amp up a lot. For studio use I will always use this feature. I thought that it would be subtle but the difference is night and day. The amp sounds a bit compressed and congested normally until you get the volume WAY up. The switch bypasses the loop, master volume and solo features. The channel masters become the final output. Without all the extras in the signal path the amp just comes alive. It's like taking a blanket off the speakers. It improved the tone so much that I may have to just put my FX in the closet and run it this way all the time. Give it a shot, it will make you !
