CHANNEL 2 SWITCH: Press in to activate Channel 2, the led will illuminate when active. Channel 2 is designed to be
completely flexible giving punchy cleans, smooth blues and hard rock tones. This switch is footswitchable and midi controllable,
for more information on midi see the midi section later in the manual.
DRIVE: Sets the level of tube preamplifier gain or how dirty your sound is for the drive channel - Channel 2. This control
should be used in conjunction with the master (11) Setting low levels of drive with high levels of master will give a clean
preamplifier sound, setting a medium gain level and medium Volume will give a nice crisp bluesy lead tone, while setting a high
level on the drive control and a low setting on the master will give you a punchy hard rock lead tone. Having set the drive and
master controls to your desired sound try backing off your guitar volume and tone controls for lots of other cool sounds.
Good tube amplifiers have the unique ability to produce a wide range of sounds by using only your guitar controls, playing
weight and style.
MASTER Sets the overall ‘loudness’ of channel 2.
CHANNEL 3 SWITCH: Press in to activate Channel 3, the led will illuminate when active. Channel 3 is designed for full on
stack style distortion. This switch is footswitchable and midi controllable, for more information on midi see the midi section
later in the manual.
DRIVE: Sets the level of tube preamplifier gain or how dirty your sound is for the lead channel - Channel 3. This control
should be used in conjunction with the master (16) Setting low levels of drive with high levels of master will give a nice crisp
bluesy lead tone, setting a medium level on the drive control and a medium setting on the master will give you a punchy hard
rock lead tone while setting the drive control to maximum with a low setting on the master will result in a full on metal lead
tone. Having set the drive and master controls to your desired sound try backing off your guitar volume and tone controls for
lots of other cool sounds. Good tube amplifiers have the unique ability to produce a wide range of sounds by using only your
guitar controls, playing weight and style.
: It is useful to experiment with the drive and master controls. If you want a
very open, warm and semi overdriven sound try reducing the amount of drive (10) and increasing the master.
BRIGHT: Adds edge and picking emphasise to you sound. This control has more effect at lower drive (10) settings.
MODERN: The modern switch applies a degree of compression to the signal, providing massive smooth sustain.
