Could someone point me to a thread that addresses setting levels properly. I am wondering if there is an order. For example, Clean/Distortion Sense, Amplifier Volume, Cabinet Volume, the various volumes in the Master section, the master volume knob, the Gain knob and finally the volume knob. Besides all these, there are volumes associated with pedals, Reverb, Modulation etc..
I'm asking because I switched to another Clean rig and the M<aster LED was clipping Red. It seems that I can eliminate it by (1) reducing input clean sense (not distortion sense probably because it's a clean sound) (2) reducing Amplifier Volume (3) reducing Cabinet Volume etc.
I'm thinking that reducing some of these vs. others affects the original profiled tone where other methods do not.
I'm looking for a simple procedure (if one exists) that says: Adjust Clean and Distortion sense as follows, if Master LED is clipping do this; if you want to hear more cabinet sound do tho, less cabinet do this etc..
This has probably been discussed a lot and I tried some searches but only seem to find bits and pieces which confuse me further.
Thanks in advance.
