Building My Tone - Help

Ive had my rig for a while but haven't ever sat down to work on my tone specifically and im wondering how you guys have done it when you want to shape your tone differently. I realize its going to sound different in the mix but when you're by yourself making your tone for your bands (or what have you) what do you do? (ie. start all at noon or other methods).

My rig:
Geddy Lee jazz bass
US peavey cirrus 6 string
GK 700RB
Avatar 410 Neo
SansAmp BDD

Also is the knob on the back of the avatar horn control? I've always wondered....... handy knob though
