I just got my Series One and it sounds really good, except I can't hear a difference when I adjust the ISF knob. When I listen to the Blackstar video I can hear the difference but I don't hear it on my amp. Can anyone suggest a particular settting where the sound difference would be obvious to me? I am using an LTD EC-1000T guitar.

It should be pretty obvious all the time. Maybe most obvious when your quite distorted as on 0 you should have a tight distortion and on 10 it should be hollow and flubby. If you can't tell the difference in that situation something is definitely wrong.

also ISF works in conjuction with the eq controls - try adjusting the mids along with it...you should hear the difference
easily

yeah, what majik said - i believe its more prominent the higher your mids are - do you have them scooped?

Hi there!, yes the more you turn down the mid knob the more isf you will be able to hear.

Well I finally tried the suggestions and I could hear the difference with the mids down. When I turned it up it was harder for my untrained ears to hear the difference.
