*The Tube parameter lets you vary the way in which the sound is distorted by vacuum tubes. It simulates the way that distortion is influenced by the amplitude, number of vacuum tubes, and their age. As you increase the value of this param- eter, non-linear distortion will increase, and the overtone structure will change. It is best to raise the Drive value, and then adjust the Tube value.

*The Bias parameter adjusts the bias point of the vacuum tubes that distort the sound. In conjunction with the Tube parameter, this will vary the overtone structure. The Bias parameter will have a greater effect when the Tube setting is high.

NR (Noise Reduction)

This effect suppresses noise.

NR2 (Noise Reduction2)

This effect reduces the noise.

It is optimized specifically for use in a pre-amp chain.

Effects within multi-effect programs GT1–VO2, and their parameters

Here are explanations of the parameters of each effect in the multi-effect chains listed above.

Dist (Distortion)

This effect distorts the input sound

Type (DriveType)........

Tube, Crunch, Scream,

Selects the drive type

 

HotBox, Higain, Valve,

 

 

Crush, Scoop, Fuzz

 

Drive (Drive) ........................................

1...

100

Sets the degree of distortion

Treble (Treble)............................

–15.0...+15.0

Sets the high-frequency tone

Level (Level) ........................................

0...

100

Sets the output level

*Threshold must be adjusted according to the input level. Since the input level of a guitar will differ depending on whether it has single-coil or humbucking pickups, adjust the input trim to an appropriate level before you adjust Threshold. For a single-coil guitar, leave the trim set to approximately -10 at a point where the noise is not too loud, and then adjust Threshold so that the sound is not cut off unnaturally.

Since NR2 is optimized specifically for pre-amp, it operates dif- ferently than NR.
