MICROTUBES INFINITY: USER GUIDE
COMPRESSOR
This control allows setting the input
gain of the compressor that will
translate into how much the signal is
compressed while our intelligent make-
up gain algorithm keeps the output of
the compressor at usable levels. The
compressor has 5 ratios available:
4:1
,
8:1
,
12:1
,
20:1
and
ALL IN
.
DISTORTION
The Microtubes Infinity has 5 different
preamp modes; a clean multi-band tube
preamp, Microtubes B3K and Vintage
Microtubes distortions in both normal
and multi-band modes.
CABINET SIMULATION
The Microtubes Infinity supports Impulse
Response (IR) cabinet simulations and
has 5 cabinet slots on board. The default
IRs have been selected by the Darkglass
Team. New IRs can be assigned to the 5
slots using the Darkglass Suite (desktop
or mobile).
BLEND
The blend control allows you to mix the distorted/
preamp signal with the clean sidechain signal.
Depending on the distortion/preamp setting the
clean sidechain is either full-band or low-band signal.
EQ
Last in the signal chain is a programmable 6-band
graphic equalizer that allows you to tailor your sound
even further. The full description of this functionality
can be found in the “Controls” section of the manual.
CONTROLS
SMART POTENTIOMETERS
On the Microtubes Infinity, you will find five smart
potentiometers:
Compression, Drive, Mod, Blend,
and Level
. These potentiometers are the main
interface for sculpting the signal chain and your
overall sound on the Microtubes Infinity.
The
COMPRESSION potentiometer
is the one-
knob solution for compression on the Microtubes
Infinity. This controls the amount of input gain to
the compressor and intelligently applies the correct
amount of makeup gain so that your signal is always
driven at the appropriate level, no matter how much
compression is applied.
