Chapter 9
LIMITR (Limiter)
The limiter attenuates loud input levels to prevent distortion.
SUB EQ (Sub Equalizer)
This adjusts the tone as a sub equalizer. A parametric type is
adopted for the high-middle and low-middle range.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
TYPE
Selects the limiter type.
BOSS LIMITR This selects a stereo limiter.
RACK 160D This models a dbx 160X.
VTG RACK U This models a UREI 1178.
ATTACK
0–100 Adjusts the strength of the picking attack
when the strings are played. Higher values
result in s sharper attack, creating a more
clearly defined sound.
THRSH (Threshold)
0–100 Adjust this as appropriate for the input sig-
nal from your guitar. When the input signal
level exceeds this threshold level, limiting
will be applied.
RATIO
1: 1–
: 1 This selects the compression ratio used with
signals in excess of the threshold level.
REL (Release)
0–100 Adjusts the time from when the signal level
drops below the threshold until when limit-
ing is removed.
LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
TOTAL GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the overall EQ volume.
LOW GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the low frequency range tone.
HIGH GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the high frequency range tone.
LOW MID FREQ (Low Middle Frequency)
20Hz–10.0kHz Specifies the center of the frequency range
that will be adjusted by the LOW MID
GAIN.
LOW MID Q (Low Middle Q)
0.5–16 Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the LOW MID FREQ.
Higher values will narrow the area.
LOW MID GAIN (Low Middle Gain)
-12–+12dB Adjusts the low-middle frequency range
tone.
HIGH MID FREQ (High Middle Frequency)
20Hz–10.0kHz
Specifies the center of the frequency range that
will be adjusted by the HIGH MID GAIN.
HIGH MID Q (High Middle Q)
0.5–16 Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the HIGH MID FREQ.
Higher values will narrow the area.
HIGH MID GAIN (High Middle Gain)
-12–+12dB
Adjusts the high-middle frequency range tone.
LOW CUT (Low Cut Filter)
FLAT, 55 Hz–800 Hz This lets you cut the low-end component be-
low the set frequency to create a clear, dis-
tinct low end, thereby bringing out the high
end of the effect. When FLAT is selected, the
low cut filter will have no effect.
HIGH CUT (High Cut Filter)
700 Hz–11 kHz, FLAT This allows you to get a mild effect sound by
cutting the high-end component above the
set frequency. When it is set to FLAT, the
high cut filter is off or has no effect.
