Reverb On/Off
To turn reverb on or off, hold the Utility key for more than 1⁄4 second (just like holding Amp, FX and Delay turns on or off the amp,
effects and delay).
And one more thing...
Reverb/Delay Compromises
If reverb is on, delay is limited to a maximum of 625 milliseconds. Specifically:
1) If reverb is on and delay time is increased past a fixed value of 625 ms, then reverb is turned off. If reverb is on and delay time
is set to any tempo-based value that requires more than 625 ms at the current tempo, the delay time is internally changed to
1⁄2 or 1⁄4 of that value to fit within 625 ms.
2) If delay time is set to a fixed value higher than 625 ms and reverb is turned on, then delay is turned off (the Dly Off icon will
appear). If delay time is set to any tempo-based value that requires more than 625 ms at the current tempo and reverb is
turned on, the delay time is internally changed to 1⁄2 or 1⁄4 of that value to fit within 625 ms.
Editing the Utilities
The Utility key provides access to the following settings:
<
Preset Volume
<
Noise Gate
<
Guitar/Drums Balance
<
Link Drumbeat
<
Expression Pedal Assignment
<
Tempo
<
Tempo Source
Here’s a description of each of these parameters:
Preset Volume
This sets the output level of the selected preset. It only has an effect if amp modeling is used; it will have no effect if the amp modeling
is bypassed. Use this control to adjust the volume of the preset relative to other presets, as well as to set the recording level to your
recording software. In setting this value, choose a setting that sounds equal in volume to the sound level when the amp and FX are
both bypassed. To do this, toggle the amp on and off by holding the Amp key; toggle the modulation/filter effects on and off by holding
the FX key. When the effected and bypassed levels are about the same, you’ve set the preset volume to the right level. As a reference,
if Drive = 0 and Bass, Mid and Treble = 60, a preset volume of 50 should be roughly equal to the level when the amp is bypassed.
