01BOSS ME-70 (Compressor block)
Use COMP block — light squeeze for even dynamics, not squashed
02BOSS ME-70 (Delay block)
Use DELAY block — analog or tape type, tempo-synced dotted-eighth feel around 350-400ms
03BOSS ME-70 (Reverb block)
Use REVERB block — Hall type, lush decay (2-3 seconds), sits behind the dry signal
The Bandit's TransTube preamp stays glassy clean at low gain — keep it at 2 to preserve headroom. Mid pushed to 6 compensates for the Strat's natural mid-scoop and gives the tone body in a worship mix. The amp's built-in reverb is serviceable but the ME-70's Hall reverb gives the lush, ambient wash this style needs — use the ME-70 for time-based effects and bypass the amp's reverb entirely.
