Set overdrive with all knobs to the middle. Engage the overdrive and get it to unity gain (so that when you engage it, your volume doesn’t change), or to just get a small volume bump when the pedal’s engaged. Adjust the overdrive/gain knob to get your desired amount of distortion from the pedal.
Where should my volume pedal go?
