I have, at present, 2 compressors and 2 overdrives on my Line 6 M13's main scene (scene 1 of 12). Here they are. Hope they help - share yours!
1st bank includes this Vetta Juice compressor, a proprietary Line 6 model. It's very cool, my fave, when a compressor is desired, for "starting out." It's clean and articulate with just enough "squash" to make things interesting. What I especially dig about it is you can set when the compression kicks in. These settings allow the signal to just start decay before the compression kicks in (I dig how this helps preserve the overall picking dynamics).
2nd bank includes these two overdrives.
First, a Screamer model. Big surprise - the source model is the Ibanez Tube Screamer. My settings give a tad of hair and boost, not too little, not too much.
Second, a Classic Distortion model. This is basically your ProCo Rat. The tone with it set as below is wonderful, highly articulate ... Jerry-like, in a nutshell! (This model can get downright nasty with the drive setting cranked but with it low it's amazingly sweet-sounding.)
And last but not least, the 4th bank includes the following Tube Comp model. Based on the Teletronix LA-2A studio compressor, my settings with the compression almost off gives a fine end-of-chain-clean-boost-w/just-a-hint-of-compression, when desired.
Have I mentioned before that I dig the M13 a lot?
