4. FUNCTION OVERVIEW
GAIN (1) – Instrument input level control (0 ÷ +20dB)
VOLUME (2) – This output volume control allows you to balance the volume of your effected (distorted) signal level against that
of your direct (clean) signal (when the pedal is in bypass mode).
COMP (3) – Allows you to compress your signal before it’s sent to the tube
TUBE DRIVE (4) - Adjusts the intensity of the distortion
LOW PASS (5) – This filter gradually cuts high frequencies from your distorted sound, only letting the lows pass. Makes your
distortion darker
HIGH PASS (6) – This filter gradually cuts low frequencies from your distorted sound, only letting the highs pass. Makes your
distortion brighter
MIX (7) - Controls the balance between the clean and distorted signals
“CLIP” LED (8) – Allows you to set the optimal gain level for your instrument’s signal
“ON” LED (9) – Indicates that the pedal is active
ON/OFF SWITCH* (10)
*TRUE BYPASS – When the pedal’s controls are ‘off’, your signal goes directly from the input jack to the output jack without any
degradation of audio quality.
