I generally keep the Sag control up just a hair to where it doesn't come on when I play normally, but it lights up when I palm mute and the rumble compresses.I have both the SLO and uberschall. They’re both great but I say go with the iuber! Seems like there’s so many tones you can get out of the blue channel with the pre-EQ and cut switches. The gain is lowered significantly With cut switch up on the blue channel. The gain can change even more on both channels depending on how tthe pre-EQ is set. I think like what others have said… blue is very hot rodded marshal and red is more modern sounding.
Also, does anyone use the sag control on the syn-1 syn-2 while using it with a tube poweramp? I’ve been messing with the sag control with my KSR25 6L6 power amp. I think it’s tighter and the attack is more immediate with sag off. With Sag turned up it’s the opposite and feels a little better under the fingers. I feel like it’s a little easier to play especially for soloing. Curious if others like sag on or off when using either SYN unit with a tube power amp.
