Getting to Know Amp Designers Effects Parameters
The effects parameters include Tremolo, Vibrato, and Reverb, which emulate the processors
found on many amplifiers. these controls are found in the center of the knobs section.
You can use the switch toward the right to select either Tremolo (TREM), which modulates
the amplitude or volume of the sound, or Vibrato (VIB), which modulates the pitch.
Reverb, which is controlled by a switch in the middle, can be added to either of these
effects, or used independently.
Note: The Effects section is placed before the Presence and Master controls in the signal
flow, and receives the pre-amplified, pre-Master signal.
Reverb, Tremolo, and Vibrato are described in the following sections:

Reverb is always available in Amp Designer, even when using a model that is based on
an amplifier that provides no reverb function. Reverb is controlled by an On/Off switch
and a Level knob in the middle, above which is the Reverb pop-up menu. Reverb can be
added to either the Tremolo or Vibrato effect, or used independently.
On/Off switch: Enables or disables the reverb effect.
