Mesa Big Block 750 Users!

I'm interested to see what settings people are using on their BB750. I love this amp, but find the passive mid, active mid and frequency controls a bit difficult to get the balance just right. So, I'd really appreciate hearing about some settings and peoples results from them. Do tell!

Bump. Anyone?

Here's some sample settings to start with, and adjust to taste from there:

When I had mine I used the Passive @ around 9, 10:00 then used the Active Feature in conjunction with the Frequency. I boosted and still do my Mids around 900hz so was pretty useful once dialed in.

In my last gigging band I was running it flat with a little bump on the passive mid and on the active mid with the active freq set around 9-10 o'clock. I think I tended to put the bass around 1 o'clock as well.

With just jamming in my room, which is all I'm doing currently, I've been running it as the following:

(These are clock reference settings)

bass at 1-2
passive mid at noon
active mid at 1
Frequency at 7
Treble at 2

This sounds nice to me, but I'm not sure how it will translate to a full band setting. I've never been one to scoop my sound, but I'm digging it for the time being.

I also keep my gain around 1-2 o'clock and adjust the master accordingly.
