What really is the difference/advantage in rig volume vs amp volume? Just looking for opinions and how differently people use them? They both don’t seem to affect tone at all. Why 2 volumes like that.

There isn’t any difference. Just different ways to achieve the same thing.

Simple: If you play with different rigs you can set them at different volumes at the rig volume setting and save that volume level to the profile. You cannot save master volume settings to the profiles.

I’m not talking about “master volume”, was talking about the rig volume and the “amp volume”, that’s under the amp block.

Amp Volume is before the X, MOD, Delay, and Reverb slots, so, adjusting it can change the amount of signal being sent to those FX slots, and the amount of signal can change the sound of those FX slots.
Rig volume is at the end of the signal chain, after the X, MOD, Delay, and Reverb slots. Changing it simply turns the output of the Rig up and down.

Did you mean to say “Amp Volume is before the X, MOD, Delay and Reverb slots”?

Yes - I have corrected my post.

I messed with this last night changing the volume with the rig vol and then with the amp volume with effects on and I could not tell a single difference whatsoever. Maybe its just me, I dunno.
