as already on this forum, sounds are to be tweaked at gig volume. one could easily find muddy/ice peaky sounds when sitting alone in front of the amp in a house room.
@OhG, you are making me willing to get the Steve Stevens, how are they mixed? I have often found that TAF profiles have way too much reverb & space for me, making them sounding like a post-treated studio recording
I tweak all my profiles at gig volume (which is crazy loud). As much as I love the Steve Stevens profiles, I'm starting to shift to some MBritt Marshall profiles now too (imagine that!). But the Steve Stevens profiles sound really good to me. I had to dial the gain back a bit. But other than that, I didn't tweak anything in terms of tone/EQ. I rarely keep any of the effects or reverb settings that profiles are stored with because I always adjust those to my own personal liking. So I can't really comment on that aspect of the profile (I changed it as soon as I got it).
