The best setting is to adjust to what your ears hear when you play. When you like what you hear, you are home free.

What guitar?
What room?
What recording mic?
You see, it all depends...

I think maybe Willie is truly needing some advice.
Willie, send me an email and I will try to help you find the sound you are looking for.

So here's the deal on the Renown.
I gigged with one in the 80's, playing a Les Paul through channel-1, and and Emmons S12U through Channel-2.
So for Steel, use Channel-2, because it has the Mid/Shift knobs.
If you don't have the Channel-Select Footswitch, just turn all the knobs on Channel-1 to 0.
So starting with the knobs under the words Normal Gain:
Pre: Pull the knob outward (it sounds better). Keep that knob very low, like 1, until you are ready to play louder.
Post: Set that at like 5 for now.
Those are living room settings for volume. At gigs I ran the Pre around 3-5 and I always kept the Post at 10, and control overall volume with the volume pedal control.
Low: Set it at +9 (plenty of Bass).
Paramid: Set it at -3. (this cuts the level of Midrange a little).
Shift: Set it to 800, and then see how it sounds as you turn it down towards 300. (find a tone you like).
High: Set it to taste around +3 to +6.
Here is the Manual: https://assets.peavey.com/literature/manuals/80361043.pdf
They also have a Renown 400 which I also have used. It is similar but the knobs are a little different.

Hope this helps.
