Hi! That makes no sense, at least to me: "What volume settings for Chanel 1 clean small room med to low volume?"
Channel 1 starts clean. Turn it up until it isn't clean, than back off the volume until it is. That's the maximum volume that's clean.
With Channel 1 there are no "settings." It's volume, bass, and treble. It's basically a black or silver panel Princeton tone. It's clean up to about half volume and then gets fatter as you turn it up. Turn your guitar's volume to about 50 to 75% and turn up the amp.
With Channel 2 you can get cleaner. Voice 5 is '65 Princeton: black or silver panel Princeton tone. It's the same as Channel 1, but with a gain control that you can turn down to keep the tone cleaner when it's loud.
Does the amp have the stock speaker? Have you altered any of the voices using Fender's Fuse software?

2 is lower than 3. Try 2.

Well I don't have Fuse as it's been discontinued and not supported. Stock all the way, the amp sounds good but just wanted to know of the cleanest setting on Chanel 1 it's clean from 1-5 or 6 with about 40% guitar volume tone set at about 75% treble-5 bass-5 and minimal reverb about 1.5 and using any of the three reverb settings.
As far as the room I play in most of the time it's a 12x12 carpeted study. So I play at low- mid volume so I don't sear my eardrums. Voice 5 is a very nice clean sound and so is the voice #16 if I keep it somewhat low.

Fuse is findable for download on the Web. It still works just fine on Windows computers. It's "unsupported," but I've never heard of anyone ever contacting Fender for support, anyway.

Added an l-pad as an attenuator to mine. It allows channel 1 to break up at nice low volumes.
Must find a copy of fuse..

Another $0.00 way to get cleaner is to lower the bias voltage via the R6 trimpot on the circuit board. At 390 V plate voltage, the factory bias is 40 MV measured at R20. That's the common voltage and each tube is getting 20 MV. That's biased "cool," but you can get cooler and thus (perhaps) cleaner tone at your preferred volume.
As always, lethal voltage is present even when the amp isn't powered up. Don't mess with it if you're not wise to safety precautions. You can always pay a good amp tech to tune the bias for tone while you play a guitar through the amp on his/her bench.

How bout Mac?

No Mac version was ever produced. My vague recollection is that it's difficult to make it run on a Windows virtual machine on a Mac. There's Remuda which is an Android app that's equivalent to Fuse.
