A few settings for the Sig X and Deliverance…

Customer has a Fifty/CL. Trades it in for a Sig:X. Likes it but misses some of the CL vibe - of course - 3 channels, 100W, KT88s, etc, etc…
Here’s my shot at getting the Fifty/CL vibe happening on the Sig:
P.S. The Sig is definitely more “dense” in the low mids than the CL. Keeping the Bass low decreases the low end density while turning the Depth up enhances the CL low end resonance (speaker reaction). It may seem counter-intuitive…well, yeah, it is counter-intuitive. C’est la vie (all knob settings refer to the clock face hour hand):
Rhyrhm Channel
“LIVE”
Gain I – 12
Gain II – 5
“BOOST”
‘MORE”
“40”
Master – 10
Treble – 1
Middle – 11
Bass – 12.30
Presence – 4:30
Depth - 3
Remember - clock face, not 1-10 ![]()

I moved this part of my Deliverance clip thread here because it seems to be morphing into a Sig:X “How To” thread. Obviously people want to learn more about the Siggies capabilities, and from what I see here, even experienced Sig users may not realize how deep this amp really is. I’ll jump in every once in a while and throw out some setting suggestions. We’re also working on some clips…
Would you give a run down of the amp settings like you did for the 50CL … but for the Sig-X ?

I don’t use the tone controls much. Just a bit for shading. Most of my voicing is shaped by the voicing switches, Gain I/Gain II ratio and Presence/Depth settings. Distortion/Overdrive blend is determined by the Master setting, thus, a little hotter Master against the 40W mode for the solo track gives a fatter overdrive and sustain while retaining the basic tonality. In this example I simply treat the Sig as if it were 2 amps - the D120 and D60 - for their respective tracks.

There are all kinds of things this amp does that you would never even think to try. Here’s a cool clean sound like a BF deluxe:
Rhythm Channel
Vintage
Gain I - 12:00
Gain II - N/A
Boost Off
Less Mode
40W
Master - 12:00
Scoop
Treb - 2:30
Mid - 9:00
Bass - 9:00
Pres - 10:00
Depth - 5:00
Use with a 1X12 or 2X12 open back cab @ 8 ohms.
Now hit it with your SAS set to:
V - 9:00
G - 2:00
Bias - 2:00
Neck PU.
How Steve sets up the Deliverance…
I usually set Gain I around 12-1 oclock, Gain II around 9-10 oclock in MORE mode.
TMB at around 12 oclock.
Presence and Depth around 12-1 oclock.
D120 Master around 9:30, D60 Master around 10-11 oclock - or just at the point where they really start to wake up.
