Exactly! Especially with tubes, which have a lot of internal headroom. I had my OCL-2 modified with an additional drive control while retaining a passive output control as well. That way you can overdrive the internal tube stage as much as you want without going over standard level on its output (whatever your "standard" may be). In that case you have to use your ears anyway, because you're extending the language that the OCL-2 can speak.
