Insert effect parameter functions
Section 2
Treble -50–+50
Adjusts the tone for the high frequency range.
Level 0–100
Adjusts the overall volume of the overdrive/distortion sound.
COSM PreAmp&Speaker
COSM technology plays an indispensable role in simulating
the distinguishing characteristics of various guitar amps in
the “Preamp” section, and is also used to simulate various
speaker sizes and cabinet constructions in the “Speaker
Simulator.”
Effect On/Off OFF, ON
Turns the Preamp/Speaker Simulator effect on or off.
Type
This sets the type of the guitar preamp. The distortion and tone
characteristics of each amp are as shown below:
Gain 0 –100
Adjusts the distortion of the amp.
Bass 0 –100
Adjusts the tone for the low frequency range.
Middle 0–100
Adjusts the tone for the middle frequency range.
Treble 0–100
Adjusts the tone for the high frequency range.
Presence 0–100
Adjusts the tone for the ultra high frequency range.
* If you have selected “VO DRV,” “VO LEAD,” “VO CLEAN,” “MCH
DRV,” “MCH LEAD,” or “FAT MCH” as the type, raising the
presence will cut the high range (the value will change from 0 to -100).
Level 0 –100
Adjusts the overall volume of the entire preamp.
* Be careful not to raise the Level setting too high.
Bright OFF, ON
Turns the bright setting on or off.
OFF:
No brightness is added.
ON:
Brightness is added to create a lighter, crisper tone.
* This will not be displayed for certain Type settings.
Gain SW LOW, MIDDLE, HIGH
Adjusts the distortion generated by the amp, with the level
increasing in sequence for LOW, MIDDLE, and HIGH.
* The sound of each type is created with the assumption that gain is set to
MIDDLE. It is normal, therefore, to use this setting.
Speaker SW OFF, ON
Turns the speaker simulator on or off.
