[QUOTE="Julia, post: 88634, member: 1784"] Like with any MFX unit that can take line level, it is very easy to blow by the PAD on the unit. You have to watch clipping. This means the output level from your modules cannot be set too hot. Keep the level around 10:00 on them. Set the HD500 1/4" out to "amp". That puts it at instrument level. Make sure you put the FX loop in your patch first or after your overdrives, but before any other effects and definitely before the amp model, if any. Any HD500 amp model used should have NO CABINET selected, and you should only use the preamp of that model, otherwise you'll end up with phasing issues. The Randall power section adds it's own flavor to the models. I don't think you would want the power section of teh amp model to conflict with the amp's power section. I look at the MTS as tube based modeling technology. My favorite models on the HD are the Dr. Z, Gibtone, Divided By 13, Line 6 Elektrik, Fender Deluxe, Twin, JTM 45. The Elektrik is the 1.1 Uberschall and was a total mistake. They fixed the Uberschall in 1.2 but everyone hated the fix, so they brought it back. I think it's the best high gain model in the unit.
