PARAMETER SETTINGS FUNCTION
PRE
LOW/CUT 75 to 1000 Hz Selects the point where low frequency signals are reduced. Filter slopes vary between -12 dB/Oct and -6 dB/Oct depending on
PRE TYPE.
PRE TYPE (POPUP) Flat, Low Bump, Vintage I,
Vintage II, Vintage III
Selects the coloring of the input signal. The ‘Flat’ mode is the original mode. Other modes add coloring appropriate for
guitar and other ‘amped sound’ applications.
NOISE GATE
THRESH -80 to 0 dB Level at which the gate is engaged. When the input signal level drops below the THRESH value, the gate closes and no input
signal is passed.
ATTACK 0 to 500 msec Rate at which the gate opens. Green LED (on Right) is lit when gate is open.
HOLD 10 to 500 msec Amount of time the gate remains open once signal level rises above the THRESH value.
RELEASE 10 to 1000 msec Rate at which the gate closes. Yellow LED (on Left) is lit when gate is closed.
COMPRESSION
THRESH -48 to 0 dB Level at which the compression starts. When input signal rises above the THRESH value, it is compressed at ratio selected by
TYPE.
RESPONSE 200 to 2000 msec Rate at which the compressor attacks the signal once it exceeds the THRESH value, and the rate at which the compressor
releases once the signal level drops below the THRESH value. Yellow ‘C’ LED is lit when compression is active.
SUSTAIN 0 to 100 Amount of make-up gain applied to the signal after compression.
RELEASE 25 to 5000 msec Rate at which the sustainer action occurs. Yellow ‘S’ LED is lit when sustainer is active.
TYPE (POPUP) 2:1, 4:1, 8:1 (ratio) Ratio of input to output levels for the compressor.
EQUALIZER (LOW SHELF, PARAMETRIC, HIGH SHELF)
GAIN -12 to +12 dB Boost or cut to selected frequency region.
FREQ 40 to 400 Hz
0.40 to 4.00 kHz
4 kHz to 15 kHz
Low Shelf
Parametric
High Shelf
DISTORTION
DRIVE 0 to 12 dB Amount of gain (emphasis) of selected FREQ in distortion circuit.
DRIVE TYPE
(POPUP)
Normal, Wide, Low and
various Filters
Controls and shapes the frequencies that feed the distortion circuit .
FREQ 200 to 2000 Hz Frequency where the DRIVE control gain is focused.
AMOUNT 0 to 100 Amount of distortion. Yellow LED lit when distortion circuit is active.
LEVEL -48 to 0 dB Overall output level of the distortion section.
TYPE
(POPUP)
Light, Light II, Medium,
Heavy, Shread, and Screamer
Selects the distortion circuit type, from light distortion to full shred.
OUTPUT
REVERB 0 to 100 Amount of reverberated signal mixed with the dry signal.
CABINET TYPE
(POPUP)
1x12, 2x12, 4x10, and 4x12,
varied styles, and two direct
modes
Several different cabinet styles with close and room microphone positions, plus direct modes with no cabinet modelling. The
settings containing the indication `II’ are derived from closed-back cabinets (the settings without indication are derived from
open backed cabinets)
Ø (PHASE) ON/OFF Polarity (phase) of the nal output, ON is 180° from original.
OUT -24 to +24 dB Overall signal level adjustment. LED Meter lit to show output level.
