Hello everyone,
I just got a mint V400 and I have searched for settings. I'm new to the PSG and using this type of amplifier. I loaded a picture of what it's set at now.

Thanks guys for any help

Beef up the low end (3 o'clock or so)
Cut the mids at 800Hz (mid @ 9 o'clock or so -- shift at 800)
Treble at 12 (straight up) or 1 o'clock

Always keep your Pre-gain less than Post
I generally run Post at or near wide open and Pre at 1 or 2.

I can't read your knob positions well and haven't used a Vegas in a while, but these are guidelines for most any steel amp.

BTW, Buddy Emmons played through this amp for YEARS and it always sounded great (big surprise there, huh?)
