amp knob placements.

I doubt you can help me much with this, but i just got a new amp, a Invalid Link Removed
you can look at the front view it shows all the stuff really good detail so you can tell what each thing does. on my bass, i got a srx2ex2 which is pretty much the same as Invalid Link Removed

What style I want is I guess a death metalish? idk. like for breakdowns, just that type of music overall. sorry im really new :[

edit: whats the -1 0 +1 on the back do too?

Its probably for adjusting the F/X loop to match the two
different operating levels, that various FX devices run at.
(instrument and line-level)

Start with all your eq knobs set to the mid point, then try
them all one at a time, to get a good idea of what each one
does individually, before you try multiple knob eq settings.

Good advice. Also, your bass has active tone controls. It's similar to an Ibanez SRX 300 I own. There's a huge amount of boost available on that bass. If you crank up the bass control while using a lot of bass boost on your amp, the cumulative effect can really screw up your sound. I'd start with both bass and treble controls on your bass set at the neutral, centre detent position.
