This probably added more fatness to the mix than anything else... when playing cleans on the Switchblade the Superfly adds a bit of warmth in the background, and when playing heavy/leads on the Switchblade the Superfly brings additional clarity to the mix. Granted, this somewhat defeats the purpose of having two MIDI-switchable amps, but it sounds killer!<BR/><BR/>--Bguitar.playahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02793031549565266469noreply@blogger.com
