I use a MI Audio Crunch Box with the clean channel of my Dual Rec to get more of a "Marshally" sound.


cheers Primo.

 

 

Same here (LOVE the ACB!). I also use a Maxon OD808 before my ISP on both my 6505+ and Blackstar HT 60 combos. The extra saturation makes the tones so sweet. Also allows me to use less gain on the amp which enhances my tone/makes less noise.

Personally, I make a big distinction between a pedal used as a boost and one used as a distortion. Cascading gain stages are always fun but, in general, I strongly prefer the bulk of the preamp to come from the amplifier's tube preamp (stomp as boost) to most of the distortion in the first (stompbox) gain stage (stomp as distortion). I guess the only exception would be fuzzes.

I did for a long time. Old ProCo Rat into a '62 Fender Concert in that video. ts9 in '68 Pro Reverb (pro was dimed) for a while, fuzz in to AC30, Rat in to AC30... actually most of the amps i've used live have been primarily clean amps and I used pedals for my dirt.
