Q: Where do you set your amp model controls (sag, bias, hum, etc.)

[arcanjil]

Title says it all.

 

Where do you like to set your sag/hum/ripple/bias/bias X?

 

For example, have you ever tried setting the Bias all the way to Class A on a Class A/B amp model?

 

Also, where do you set your FX Loop in the signal chain (if you use it)?

Sag is always at 0%, the others are default values.  Since typically I can't really hear much difference when testing different values, I'd categorize these as micro parameters; very minor effects, so I in majority of cases don't bother changing them, and just tend to use settings which have a far more drastic effect.  More subtlety/precision than I care for.

It's the last block, because I use an external looper for looping and it allows me changing sounds/patches without having the patch alter looped sound.

 

Otherwise, it will depend on which effects you're using in the FX loop, so compression/distortion first blocks, vs reverbs/delays/etc., last blocks.
