Yeah - I pretty much know and use the thing that Main Volume of An-1x
affects the sound / distortion..
What I was saying is that to me it seems that I have now more distortion at
the same Volume level (wtih the same patch / patch parameters) than before..
Or that i need to have a lower Main Volume setting to have a clear sound
often.. (like to get to about 1-2 o'clock main volume with a patch with <50
feedback and about 110 VCA volume). Do you have it about the same ?
Ray.
