Treble – T
his adjusts the frequency emphasis on the highs. It's a straightfor-
ward control, but it is still extremely effective. If you want more highs, raise the
Treble. If you want less, lower the Treble. This control is in some ways
determined by the Hard/Brutal switch – set to Hard, you will have an inherent-
ly lower amount of treble, whereas Brutal mode allows you more high
frequency room to expand.
Mids –
This adjusts the "body" of the sound, the midrange frequencies where
guitar's fundamentals reside. Scooping this out can put you back farther in the
band mix, while pushing it up will put you more forward in the mix. Brian has
worked hard to make sure that you can dial in your ideal high-gain sound with
the Triple Wreck across a huge variety of amps. A classic "scooped" sound is
definitely possible, but watch where you are in the mix.
Bass –
This control determines the amount of low end pound to the signal,
and is great for dialing in the pedal to meet the needs of your cabinet. The
idea of the Triple Wreck is an aggressive, high gain sound, and one of the ways
in which it strongly distinguishes itself from the lower gain pedals and even
from the higher gain options in the Wampler Pedals lineup is in its extraordi-
narily tight distortion character. It allows you to easily chug (or "djent" if that's
your preference) without flab. When using the Triple Wreck with a closed-back
cabinet, pay attention to the Bass knob for a tight sound.
Hard/Brutal –
This control essentially sets the overall voicing of the pedal's
frequencies, to be either darker (think late '80s, early '90s high gain guitar
tone) or brighter and more modern. Setting this up first will give you a good
"starting point" for your tone, but it's also useful if you've adjusted everything
else and feel the overall tone needs to shift in a larger direction.
Boost Footswitch –
This is the switch that changes the pedal from recogniza-
bly brutal high-gain distortion to a modern fuzz monster. It's attached to its
own control knob, called...
Boost Contour –
This adjustment changes the intensity of the Boost. It's
possible, as mentioned above, to set the Gain knob lower and this Contour
anticlockwise for a more conventional gain boost setup, but the majority of
possibilities are varieties of heavy, crushing fuzz. This control, in conjunction
with the Gain knob and the EQ options, lets you dial it in just like you want it.
