Thanks to its dual channel setup, the LOUDPEDAL allows you to easily switch between two tones set
by the user. Channel 2 possesses more gain than Channel 1 and will distort much easier as you
increase the gain. With their own individual volume and gain controls, the levels can be changed
independently, allowing you two different tones to switch between.

CH1/2 FOOTSWITCH
–
Choose between the two channels using this switch, found on the
bottom left of the pedal. The top right LED will light up to indicate Channel 1 is active and the
top middle LED will light up when Channel 2 is active.
•
CHANNEL 1 GAIN CHARACTER SWITCH
The Gain Character Switch (GCS) allows refined control of the distortion characteristics of the
channel. Changing the GCS mode will affect how the drive stage reacts and responds. Each
setting of the GCS has a sweet spot which the effect is most noticeable. This tends to be at mid
to higher gain levels.
o
CLEAN
–
Soft clipping is applied to the drive stage giving the least amount of compression
and allowing for a more open tone.
o
RHYTHM
–
This setting provides Asymmetrical clipping adding more distortion whilst
retaining some clarity and dynamics.
o
LEAD
–
Symmetrical clipping is applied, giving more aggressive distortion for a high gain,
compressed sound.
