Blues Lead or Mellow Crunch - this setting is particularly useful in blues or softer rock songs and it is good for leads as well as rhythm parts. It is good for power chords in back of leads. You need to switch to the lead channel to make these settings work. Blues, depending on the guitar you use, usually adds treble but with more midrange and a "fat" bottom end. This setting does not have as much gain as full out crunch, adjust the gain control to the amount of distortion you desire. Blues usually has a reverb trail on the notes. Chorus is sometimes used to create a vibrato style sound. Adjust to taste.

Alternative/Harder Edged Rock - this setting will deliver more of a cutting tone. Whether used for rhythm or lead sounds, it will "cut" through the drums and get you heard. If you need more "grunge", increase the gain control for more distortion. This style of music requires a slightly thinner, harder edged tone full of midrange. Less reverb is required as it tends to muddy up faster songs but Chorus give the tone a fatter fuller sound. Adjust to taste.

Heavy Metal/Maximum Crunch - this setting is a good starting point for the "notched out middle" sounds associated with metal and heavy alternative sounds. Adjust the Treble, Lows, Reverb and Chorus to taste. Usually, for a rhythm tone, you want to have more lower end and less for leads. Distortion is an integral part of this style of music and this amp delivers it quite well.
