is fine. Change back to the initial channel, its also now fine.
Treble, channel volume and gain.
Except as the tone studio also confirms, my channel 1 clean patch loads up with EVERYTHING as it is normally saved regardless of where the amps physical knobs are set on the amp (normal) except those 3 above mentioned knobs!
Bizarre. I just cant fathom why the amp on one of its channels with a preset patch ‘sees and applies’ those 3 physical panel knobs upon initial start up. The physical panel knobs should only be applied if you alter them whilst on a channel, or select panel mode on the amp..
Tried a factory reset, resaved all my patches, no difference.
its not a huge issue but is annoying having to tap dance upon start up.. and make sure the physical knobs arent set high otherwise it can surprise me when I forget..
like woahh, thats loud and distorted on my clean channel patch!
Can I ask why you’ve not got access to Tone Studio?
I think the last update I did, doubled up on the available patches via footswitch, so I might have a look if any new features in the V4 update.
Worth checking if there's an IOS version?
I have a small android tablet, cost under £100, which I use for running my RCF digital mixer and also has the Marshall Code editor for my Code50, I originally got the Katana as a back up amp for the Code as it was playing up in rehearsals and gigs but a software update fixed that and I have had no problems since.
I got the Katana 100 combo as a live back up, but then also got a head version to use at home in studio, with the foot controller set up permanently.
The update to allow 8 patches plus panel setting is plenty for me, but it would be nice to have access to the settings outside of a computer program.
No need to lug laptops or pads about You just find the tones and effects your going to use and program them to the GA-FC job done.
It takes a while to work out and I’ve still not mastered everything but worth doing and good fun learning.
The easiest way is to get a USB OTG adapter, which will go from micro USB or USB Type C (depending on what is on your android device) and then a normal USB Type A to USB Type B cable (Type B is the square one, Type A is normal USB).
I don't own these and am not recommending but what you are looking for is something like these:

I found the series of you tube videos by Paul from The Studio Rats useful.
I downloaded his preset packs which may be a good stating point.
See what you think.
To do that it did take a quick setup first. I just made sure all the effects I wanted were there onboard, with the signal chain I wanted.
And thanks to the Android app if I need to change anything I can do so in seconds. But in reality I used the Katana now like any normal amp.
