Why all of you who own DR's and TR's use the "vintage" mode on your amps on the distortion channels. Today at practice, before we started going through our songs, I made the switch from Modern to Vintage on my Triple, re-eq'd the amp, turned the channel volumes up....and WOW. I love my amp!!!! I thought the Modern modes were amazing, until I changed to Vintage. I think they are going to be staying on this setting for a long time. I didn't look to see if I had the Diodes or Tube Rectifiers selected, I think I had the diodes activated though, and the sound was just brutal, and it no longer has the over the top harshness that the Modern modes had. Just thought I'd share this revelation I had today, and would encourage anyone who uses modern mode on the distortion channels to give the vintage mode a shot. And this is coming from a guitarist in a Metal/Hardcore band, and strictly stuck to the modern modes for the heavy tones.
