Just re programmed my Katana 100 combo just using graphic eq and hi band compressor built in . Got much closer to the right sounds now and have 4 patches. Compressor is variable.
My graphic eq setting were below 250hz set at -15 , 250hz -8 , up to 4khz flat , 4khz -8 , above that - 15. One patch on top boost uses 2khz at +9 .increase the EQ gain to about 12 to make up for volume losses due to cutting.
The compressor is on around 22 on dial but adjustable.
I reduced mid on amp to around 30 for most using crunch mode with no gain for top boost sounds but a little gain for AC15 sound. Set channel volume at 100.
Set treble 12 o clock and bass 35 % for early top boost sounds and treble 70% and full bass for later top boost sound.Presence is on max brightness or 0.
For very early AC15 tunes I cut low frequencies to -18 and -11 on 250hz with bit more gain on the amp.
