Using Amp Designer’s Tremolo and Vibrato Effects
Tremolo and vibrato are controlled by several switches and two knobs in the Effects
section found toward the right of the knobs section. Tremolo modulates the amplitude
or volume of the sound, and vibrato modulates the pitch.
On/Off switch: Enables or disables the tremolo or vibrato effect.
Trem/Vib switch: Choose either tremolo or vibrato.
Depth knob: Sets the intensity of the modulation (tremolo or vibrato).
Speed knob: Sets the speed of the modulation in Hertz. Lower settings produce a
smooth, floating sound. Higher settings produce a rotor-like effect.
