Which volume?

The gain controls already have them (.001uF on both channels of the 2-Ch. Dual, channels 2/3 of the 3-Ch. Dual, and 120pF on channel 1 of the 3), as does the Output Level on the 3-Ch. (47pF in series with 330K resistor - although this is interesting, because the 2-Ch. *doesn't* have this on the Loop Active Master, which may help explain the fizzier sound of the 3-Ch...). The 2-Ch has a cap on the Orange channel master, but only in Clean mode. Neither of them do on the Red (2/3) channel masters, although the 3-ch. has caps to *cut* treble on Channels 1 & 3 - across the whole pot on ch.1 and from wiper to ground on 3.

Confused? :)

It is, a bit - but it also means that there's no way a 3-Ch. can sound exactly the same as a 2-Ch. at all settings, since the different caps change the response differently depending on where the pots are.
