5.2.3. The Amp
The amp is based around a Fender Twin and can be switched off to leave either the output
of the organ or the organ plus effects, or switched on to lend a more vintage, amped sound
to the signal.
Starting from right and moving left the controls are as follows:
• The
POWER
switch activates or deactivates the amp.
• The
MASTER VOLUME
knob acts as the final volume control for the output of the
whole instrument when the amp is switched on.
• The
TREBLE, MIDDLE
and
BASS
knobs let you sculpt the EQ of the amp’s output
just like on a real guitar amp.
• The
VOLUME
knob acts as a channel volume control.
◦
> To get classic tube preamplifier distortion, turn this to max and turn
MASTER VOLUME
down.
• The
BRIGHT
switch can be used to add more presence and brightness to the
sound. It is only active at low volumes.
• The
AXIS
switch lets you alter the virtual microphone between
ON AXIS
which
gives a more direct sound with the mic pointing straight at the amp's speaker,
and
OFF AXIS
which uses a mic pointed at an angle, which gives a slightly less
direct character.
