Hey guys, just got my Mark V and I've been reading a lot about the IIC+ settings that Metallica used on Master of Puppets. I wanted to dial in those settings in IIC+ mode on the V, and I understand there's a few differences, but I wanted to see if I'm thinking of the settings correctly.
IIC+ Settings:
Volume
Treble/Bass/Middle (these are obvious)
Master
Lead Drive
Lead Master
V Settings:
Gain
Channel Master
Presence
Treble/Mid/Bass
Output
I'm assuming:
Volume = Output
T/M/B = T/M/B
Master = Channel Master
Lead Drive & Lead Master = Gain?
Seems like the IIC+ has two volumes and two gains? While the V only has one gain, but still two volumes (master and output). Has anyone had success dialing in the true MOP tone using a 1:1 setting with the V in IIC+ mode, or have you found some tweaks to really dial it in?
I've also seen a note in some of the MOP settings to put the presence around 3.5. I was basing the settings on this image:
