Weird "under distortion" with Mesa TransAtlantic.

When I load up the preset "Boosted Crunch" I notice that I'm now getting what sounds like a high gain amp sound under the regular crunch tone. It sounds like I have two amp paths going, one very high gain, and one crunch, but the high gain is at a lot lower, but still noticeable volume. I thought maybe my EMGs needed a new battery, but I tried a Strandberg passive (Shur) pickup equipped guitar and the sound is still there. I downloaded a Tonex capture of the TA-30, and it sounds fine. I don't remember this issue with this model before. It's one of my favorites models. You can't hear it if you crank up the input gain, but then you just have a high gain sound, not a crunch. Is anyone else noticing this?
