Default Your Favorite tone setting...

Hello all! Just joined the KSB club a few days ago with a stunning Black Tiger 5 string. My question as a newbie-do you have a favorite setting for your tone? I know every player is different, and every bass is unique etc.-but with such a large choice of tonal variations on this bass I wonder if some of you have particular settings you could share.

For example, this sounded pretty jazzy to me so far:

Balance slightly towards the rear PU
toggles both down
1/4 turn +bass
1/8 turn +treble
flat mid

something like that....

I would love to hear some of your insights, and what styles they work well for. Thanks!
