Quick Rod - First Gear settings

[kpinks]

Hello, I really enjoy the First gear on the QR, as it is a bit brighter than Gear 2 and Gear 3. I use a tube screamer in front of the amp as well. Just wondering if some people could possibly share their settings on First Gear with OD? Also do you use the Solo channel (Gear 2) for solos or a boost in loop?
Thanks in advance

I'm usually in Gear 2 but regardless:

Pres 12 oclock
Bass 10 oclock
Mid 12
Treb 7am (zero basically)
Gain 2pm

I never use the Solo option but why are you saying "Solo channel (Gear 2)" I've been through many boosts and have mostly settled on the SD1 and Bad Monkey (TS clone). I've never put a boost in the loop but I do have a MXR 10 band in the loop - a must for me.

But what are you trying to do? Boost solos?
