Sound Samples

This section shows some actual setting examples and gives information on amplifier settings.

Standard overdrive sound

Set the amplifier to clean sound without distortion. This will allow you to easily switch between clean sound and overdrive. In this example, the GAIN is set fairly high and the LOW range is given a boost, resulting in a mild, warm sound. This is suitable for applications ranging from light rock backing to solo play.

Boost sound emphasizing amp distortion

These settings emphasize the amplifier distortion. The key is the 10 o'clock position of the GAIN control. The HIGH and LOW controls may be left in the center. LEVEL can be adjusted to fit the amplifier distortion. The sound of this widely applicable setup will differ considerably, depending on the volume level setting at the guitar.
