[QUOTE="Bucksears, post: 161752, member: 2627"] I posted this over on Rig-Talk, but figured I'd try here as well I've had my MOD50 for about five years and haven't used it as much as hoped, mostly because the cab/speakers I've had for the duration weren't ideal, and my easy/go-to setup is a Fender Super Reverb for clean + some reverb, and pedals for everything else. For the MOD50, the best cab config I've found has been the Egnater Tourmaster 212, which is what I used back when I had an M4 preamp + Randall RT2/50 setup. Finally got a very similar cab and loaded the Elite 80 speakers. Circling back to the MOD50 now, I'd like some feedback/guidance on how to make the most of it for using dirt pedals. I've got the Egnater T/D, BMAN and VX (dual) modules. FWIW, I had my M4 about 10yrs ago and some dirt pedals (DS-1, in particular) sounded way thinner/smaller through the Twin side of the T/D module than it did through a <conventional> tube amp (my Super Reverb RI). Is there a 'best practice' or cool tricks to getting them to take pedals well? Lower gain (5751) for V1? Run Channel A's gain a little higher vs just higher volume? Or is it an issue with the MOD amps? I've read several reviews where the new Synergy BMAN and T/DLX are taking pedals well, so I'm also wondering if it's just a difference in the technology. Thx!
