There are 45 selectable effects separated into 3 groups of 15. One effect from each group
active at the same time. Up to 3 groups active at the same time.
There are 12 user presets. Each preset stores all setting for the 3 groups. There are 4
Favorites banks. Each favorites bank contains 3 user presets. Presets in the banks are
selected by tracking the channel select and Lead Boost button status.
Total Harmonic Distortion
Frequency Response
20HZ-20kHz
Actual response is tailored to speakers for accurate acoustical
response using a guitar as input.
Less than 0.4%
Because of the intentional distortion created by using some of the
preamps and effects, this Distortion is measured from the power
amp input signal to the output to speakers.

Specifications

This stereo amplifier is designed to operate external speaker systems down to 4
ohms per channel. Use the chart below to determine the total load of different
cabinets connected to the two jacks on each channel. Loads shaded gray are not
recommended. If two cabinets are daisy chained together and plugged into one
speaker jack, you will have twice the load and half the impedance (Ohms) as one
cabinet. For example: If two 8 ohm cabinets are daisy chained together, then you
have the equivalent load of one 4 ohm cabinet.

From chart, total load on left channel = 5.33 Ohm
Example
:
(left channel shown)
The left channel has a 16 ohm load plugged
into the top jack and an 8 ohm load plugged
into the bottom jack. The bottom jack load is 8
ohms because the two bottom 16 ohm cabinets
are daisy chained together which doubled the
load. When a load is doubled, the impedance
(ohms) drops proportionally (divides in half).
Looking at the chart, you can see the total load
on the two left channel jacks = 5.33 ohms. This
value is not in the shaded gray area making it
OK to use.
