TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS
This trio of knobs allow you to dial in the exact amount of high, mid, and low fre-
quencies. Also, as you’d expect (and hope!), the exact manner in which each one
of these controls behaves and also interacts with the others is dependant on the
amp model selected. Turn to the “Amp models and effects” section (page 17) for
more information.
NOTE:
In keeping with the originals, certain models will produce almost no sound if
all of these three tone controls are turned all the way down (counter-clockwise).
NOTE:
Not all of the original amps that we modeled actually have all three of the Tre-
ble, Middle, and Bass controls. In such cases, we allow you to use all three knobs to
effectively increase the tonal range of the original. Turn to the “Amp models and
effects” section (
page 17
) for more information.
MASTER
This adjusts the volume that is output from the preamp to the Valve Reactor power
amp. This will vary the amount of distortion created by Valve Reactor.
NOTE:
The MASTER volume control is NOT programmable.
NOTE:
The GAIN control also affects the amount of distortion. For some settings,
there may be virtually no distortion.
3. E
FFECT
SECTION
Here you can make settings for effects and noise reduction. For details on each effect,
refer to “Amp models and effects” (page 17).
EFFECTS
Selects the type of effect. You can use the TAP button, EDIT 1 knob and Bypass
button to adjust the parameters of each effect. When you select an effect type, the
effect parameters will be initialized and Effect Bypass will be defeated.
EDIT 1
Use this to adjust the parameters of each effect. By using this knob in conjunction
with the TAP and BYPASS buttons as described below, you can adjust three differ-
ent parameters. (That is, if the BYPASS LED is dark.)
•
Turn EDIT 1 (without pressing a button) (EDIT 1)
•
Turn EDIT 1 while pressing TAP (EDIT 2)
•
Turn EDIT 1 while pressing BYPASS (EDIT 3)
If the BYPASS LED is lit (the effect is bypassed), you can hold down the TAP but-
ton and turn the EDIT 1 knob simultaneously to adjust the noise reduction sensi-
tivity.
NOTE:
You can’t adjust the effect parameters while the BYPASS LED is lit.
