DEPHASE
– This parameter controls a sophisticated process that removes the “phasiness” from IRs and can
yield a more “amp in the room” experience.
LOW-CUT/HI-CUT/FILTER SLOPE
– Adjusts the cutoff points of high-pass and low-pass filters. Increase
the low-cut to reduce bass boom. Decrease the high-cut to darken the tone. Slope allows you to select
between first-order (6 dB/octave) or second-order (12 dB/octave) filters.
ROOM LEVEL, ROOM SIZE
– These controls determine the level and virtual size of a room reverb
simulation that is built into the cab simulator block. Increase to add room ambience to the sound.
MIC SPACING
– Increases delay times inside the room reverb simulation by simulating the distance of the
room microphone from the sound source.
PROXIMITY FREQ
– This allows tuning the frequency range over which the proximity effect occurs.
STEREO LINK
– Available only when the Cab
MODE
is set to “STEREO”, LINK turns the LEFT channel
parameters into master controls, which set identical values for LEFT and RIGHT parameters. You can still
override the right channel parameters values if desired.
Stereo Cab Mode Parameters
When the
MODE
of the CAB block is set to “STEREO”, independent instances of the following parameters appear
for left and right.
CAB (TYPE) L/R
MIC L/R
PROXIMITY L/R
LEVEL L/R
PAN L/R
– Pan Parameters appear
only
when cab MODE is stereo.
DELAY L/R
SPKR SIZE
is not offered when CAB
MODE
is set to “STEREO”.
Cab Preamp Simulation Parameters
A microphone on a guitar speaker is subject to the pleasing musical distortion generated by the mic preamp. This
might range from a subtle “warming up” to a full on “nasty-fying.” Preamps also offer their own tone controls
which change the sound of the mic’d speaker. The Cab block includes several controls to simulate these effects.
PREAMP MODE
–
(on “PG2”) offers “High Quality” and “Economy” modes which use more or less CPU.
PREAMP TYPE
–
Selects from a number of highly musical preamp types including Tube, FET, Transformer,
Tape, etc. Select the type which sounds best to you.
DRIVE
–
Sets the overall gain of the simulated preamp. Increase for more drive. A VU meter below the knob
shows the level into the virtual preamp. As you turn up
DRIVE
and the VU meter approaches or exceeds the 0
dB marker you will begin to overdrive the preamp.
SAT
–
The Saturation control controls the ratio of even/odd harmonics in preamp distortion.
BASS, MID, TREBLE
–
These adjust the tone of the virtual mic preamp.
