Set the amp for a clean sound. Set the Drive to 25%, Bass to 45%, Mid to 55%, Treble to 60%, and Presence to 60%. Guitar 1 uses plenty of chorus and reverb for a shimmery, 80s clean vibe. For Guitar 2, kick in a distortion pedal for some crunch and sustain.

What gear did prince use on Purple Rain?
Prince played a Hohner Madcat on this record. He had the Dave Rusan Cloud Guitar built for the Purple Rain film and it probably appears on the album[1] . Prince used his Mesa/Boogie Mark II and Bag End D12-M set up[2] on this record, along with Music Man[3] , Fender and Marshall amps.
