Topic: Joe Sound from a digitech RP150

Ok, so before anyone blasts me for this..

I play lead guitar in our Worship Band at Church.  We have a small sanctuary, so it is best to run the RP150 straight into the sound system, as an amp would be overpowering (We've tried, I have the Marshall Class 5).  My set up now is a Epi Les Paul with the RP150, a Tube Screamer and a volume pedal.  I do have a couple other OD pedals (A Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive and the Eric Clapton pedal.  My question, is there any settings that you would suggest?  Or Maybe a custom setting to getting clost to Joe's tone?  I would like to have a cleaner tone, then a little dirtier of a tone for solos.  I think that I could use the Tube Screamer for that.

Thanks!!

Sorry I can't help you with setting suggestions, but keep in mind the mids are prevalent and roll back on the high end..  Also, there are quite a few known "Joe tones" nowadays, so let yours ears be your guide.
