Analog Dry Path

Analog Dry Path

 
CAB B has the same first 6 cabinet types as CAB A plus an analog dry output selection. This allows a single 
instrument connection to be split into a processed signal with cabinet simulation applied and a dry 
(unprocessed) output signal for connecting to the input of a real amplifier or recording interface.  
 
NOTE: The "dry" signal does not pass through the A/D/A converters and processing, so it will not incur 
the latency introduced on the cabinet-simulated (processed) signal. Therefore, care should be taken—or 
manual latency compensation applied—to minimize phase incoherence in applications where both the 
processed and dry signals may be blended together or simultaneously audible. 

5.  Footswitch 

Turns the effect on or off.

6.  Indicator LED 

This LED lights to indicate the effect is turned on or flashes to indicate clipping. When the LED is lit green, 
guitar cabs are being used. When the LED is lit yellow, bass cabs are being used. If the LED flashes red 
when signal is present, clipping is occurring in the cabinet filter or at the output of the pedal. If clipping 
occurs, try reducing the LEVEL controls to eliminate it. If that doesn't work, levels should be reduced pre the 
CabDryVR.

7.  CAB A SIZE/LEVEL Knobs 

These concentric knobs adjust the size and output level of CAB A. The inner knob adjusts the size 
(resonance) of CAB A. Higher settings emphasize the upper-mid/high frequencies, while lower settings 
emphasize the lower-mid/bass frequencies. The outer knob adjusts the output level of CAB A.

8.  CAB B SIZE/LEVEL Knobs 

These concentric knobs adjust the size and output level of CAB B. The inner knob adjusts the size 
(resonance) of CAB B. Higher settings emphasize the upper-mid/high frequencies, while lower settings 
emphasize the lower-mid/bass frequencies. The outer knob adjusts the output level of CAB B.

9.  INPUT A Jack  

Connect your instrument or the output of another effect pedal to this jack when only a single connection 
is needed. If an input connection is only made to INPUT A, the signal is passed through both cabinet model 
paths and will be heard at both outputs.
