Love the tone from the EVH and the Budda SD! Not to mention the fabulous tone. You've got great control over your tone and phrasing mate, you really do!

You can find my gear here: http://www.ernieball.com/forums/musi...our-balls.html

It should be on the next to last page as of right now... I think.

Anyway, I use the clean channel of the Budda (I never have used the dist. channel live!) and I overdrive it by pulling up the channel volume, but keeping the master volume down. I then run the signal through a compressor. Keeping as much attack I can out of it, and making the cleaner sound as smooth as possible. Then I dial in my TS808 for my main distortion. It's great on the Budda. Best sound I have ever heard in person. Of course I add some delay on the effects loop, then for videos I add a little bit more compression and delay to make the recorded sound more like it does in person, cause the recordings by themselves always sound a little dry.

Hope that helps! And thanks!

can you still get a clean sound with using the clean channel that way?

[AlexHunter]

@Colin

Yep. Just turn off the tubescreamer and roll your guitar volume down to like 5 or so. (At least my guitars.)

It's still really clean. I usually leave the Compressor going though. (I love compression. It just makes the guitar a much more sustainable instrument.


@leftyguitarblue

Thanks man!
