Run as an aux with the spring reverb volume all the way up, the echo on mode 1 with repeat rate and intensity at 12 o’clock and volume at about 2 o’clock. Bass at about 8 o’clock, treble rolled off quite a bit.
Used the combined effects mono output and rolled off even more high and low end on the return channel.
