Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Empress Effects Heavy! In this aptly
named box you'll find a huge range of killer high gain tones. From
crisp, mid-driven 80's metal, to scooped, modern down-tuned
brutality, this little box of sonic mayhem does it all. The two
independent channels can be voiced similarly so that one channel
can be used as a solo boost, or they can be voiced entirely
differently by using the mid range control in conjunction with the 3
position mid frequency select switch. Add in separate weight
controls to shape the low end response of each channel, and a
global hi/low eq section that allows you to fine tune your particular
amp and cab combination, and you've got a serious tool to create a
supremely heavy sounding rig.

On top of all this we've added an extremely responsive and hassle
free noise gate that will ensure dead silent operation with even the
most obscene amounts of gain added.

Now go forth and riff. \m/
