I decided to bring up the FAS Modern III again on a whim, I think I read someone here say it’s in their top 5 (probably shask). I haven’t tried it in a long while, and I didn’t much like it then. But I don’t think I had my current cabs and poweramp or this firmware, so I guess it’s worth another shot. I’ve read it described as an idealised and tighter recto, and I’m into that.
With not so much tweaking it sounds really good, I think this is the closest I’ve got to copying my real 3ch dual Rectifier, the feel, and general tonality seems about right (though I haven’t played my recto in like a week). I’ve set the eq up similar to my real recto also, mainly keeping an eye on the treble knob and not going over noon with it.
It’s a lot tighter right from the start, so to get the level of tightness and saturation I like, it needs a not-that-tight, but kinda-tight boost. The tubescreamer models I think are a bit honky for this model (I’ve also kind of gone off them again anyway). The FET preamp does a good job of replicating my tc electronic integrated preamp, using the EQ controls in combination with the low-cut control.
