Ecoustic amplifiers offer hidden features to further adjust the parameters of the digital effects. In addition to the adjustments described in the EFX Adjust section of this manual‚ additional tweaks may be made to customize effects to user preferences. Tweaks are made by pressing and holding the EFX ADJUST (10 & 23) control while simultaneously rotating the REV/DLY (9 & 22)control.
Note: The EFX Adjust control must be pressed for at least one second to enter Tweak Mode. Reverb settings will not be affected while in Tweak Mode.
The surrounding LED ring will now reflect the value of the effect being tweaked. As in standard parameter changes‚ the effect being tweaked will be the active effect as indicated by the LED adjacent to the effect name.
