Drew,,
haven't had any dealings with a Nashville, how much will those settings vary to a Sessions 400??

Here is what I use with a Derby:
Pre 4 Post 4 Low +9 Mid -6 Shift 775 H+8 P+5
RV-7

Here is what I use with a Fessy. Pre 4
post 4 low+6 mid-3 Shift 600 H+6 pres+3 RV5

With my Mullen, I always set the shift at around 800. After I installed the LeMay kit, it seemed like 500 or 600 was a better shift point for that guitar.

Pre> what ever the gig calls for.

Low +9
Mid -9
Shift 800
Hight +5
Pres +5
Reverb in the 4 to 6 area; depending on the reaction of that particular Peavey amp.
These are pretty much the same for the Session 400 and LTD 400.

Ricky,
Thanks for the info on the Sessions' settings, I'm pretty much right in that area. But all ways tryin to sound better..

Amp: Stock.
Bright Switch: On.
Pre Gain and Post Gain: Equal.
Bass: Wide open.
Mid: Off to just barely on, depending on room.
Shift: 3:00.
Treble: 10:00 -- 11:00, depending on room.
Presence: Wide open.

When I record at home I use slightly less treble since the mic I like tends to be fairly bright.

Best,

Jim

I use a BMI S-12 through mine with the following settings:

Pre gain.....4-5
Post Gain....6-7
Low..........10
Mid..........completely off!
high.........8
presence.....8
reverb.......0

I have the LeMay mod and in place of the reverb I use an old Ibanez 2 space analog delay unit coupled with a BBE Sonic Maximizer. Both effects patch through the back of the amp......JH in Va.

Man we're all over the MAP here!

Does anyone run their volume pedal in/out of the pre eq patch?

Roger, Always!

I use an old ShoBud pedal with a pot and you get very little tone loss through the full length of the pedal. Directly into the amp, the tone loss is major at lower levels of the pedal.

I used to use the pre-eq patch for my Goodrich volume pedal all the time but when I got my Hilton they recommend that you don't do it with theirs....JH

To better match a room's acoustics, I reset my amp just about each time I play. Usually it looks like this:

Pre: 3
Post: 7

Low: 9
Mid: 0 to -3
Shift: Top dead center
High: -3 to 3
Presence: -3 to 3
Reverb: 6-7 without delay, around 4 with the delay
