Hello I want to share our favorites modes and for what kind of music do you use it.
On rhythm channel I usually uses the green for chords on open wide cleans, the yellow is for funk and country
On lead1 I use the red for rhythm modern guitars
On lead 2 I use the red for soloing.
The other 4 modes I usually uses to riff on a hard rock method.
 
My setup is ridiculously simple, geared toward apartment setting:

Fender Strat plus (w/Lace sensor, maple fretboard)
Triaxis (FX Send/Return) -> Boss SE-50 (live-room)
Triaxis (Record) -> Tivoli Radio (used as speaker)

The various modes I used for the Triaxis depend on which pickup I use as well as the response through the Tivolo Radio. It seems to my ear at least, LD1 mode (Green/Yellow) express better when I use the middle pickup (ahh, those quiet midnight solos); whereas for heavy chord and chunky progressions, I would use bridge pickup with LD2 (Yellow).

I also rely on LD2 (Green/Yellow) for my neck pickup when I want to execute quick scale runs. As for general rhythm, such as background strumming/string picking, I switch between LD1 Green (creamy chords such as from Thin Lizzy's songs Southbound/Dancing in the Moonlight etc) and RHY Green for its warmth and consistent response

Oh, I also used LD2 (Green) with neck pickup for blues progression such as Stevie Vaughan's Crossfire alike.

I have yet to explore LD1/2 Red mode.

Thanks for reading,
Jim
