What are your "go to" settings on the various taper settings? I am genuinely interested in what taper setting you are using.

I find myself using 6 (Telonics Special Sustain Taper) more than any other.

Thanks!

Just the Hilton setting, as that is what I had as I got a Telonics a few week ago.

But soon will try others when I feel comfortable with doing that.

I like #8 which is #5 (Hilton) with a bit of gain at the end but not as much gain as #6. Works for me!!

I've been very happy with #7.

Upon further reflection, AND an actual look at my pedal, it would appear I'm using 7 after-all, so I went ahead and set it to 6 to reassess...

With my 2nd pedal that I haven't used in a LONG time set on 5, but don't remember why. I think thats my High Profile one and the one I had set to 7 my Low Profile one.

Whichever number the Emmons one is. Not because it’s “Emmons” necessarily, I just like how the taper “feels”.
