An exciter is very useful to give a sound a certain character, or to add presence, or "air", in the sound. The
integrated exciter will allow you to make these changes.
• Exciter : Switch the exciter ON or OFF.
• Gain : Control the quantity of effect applied to the sound.
• Freq : Control the center frequency of the exciter. For example,
presence for guitar is usually found at 2 or 3 kHz. Air can be
added by placing this frequency at 6 or 8 kHz.

create special effects, like pumping. The parameters of the Torpedo compressor are equivalent to a
standard studio compressor.
• Compression :Turn the compressor ON or OFF, and when ON,
indicates the level of compression applied to the signal, in dB
scale.
• Threshold : Controls the signal level above which the compres-
sion occurs.
• Ratio : Control the ratio of the compression.
• Attack : Control the attack time, in milliseconds.
• Release : Control the release time, in milliseconds.
