Preset Level

Controls the individual level for each preset. Because this setting is individual to each preset, you may adjust the volume when using louder or softer amp models.

Pickup/Wah

The Pickup Simulator gives the thick tone of a humbucker pickup from a guitar with single coil pickups, or the bright edgy sound of a single coil pickup from a guitar with a humbucker. Wah is an effect controlled by an expression pedal making the guitar sound as if it’s saying “Wah.”
