Editing Model Parameters
As you've likely discovered by now, there are several types of blocks that can be utilized
in any preset: Amp, Preamp, Cab, Impulse, Eect, Looper, Split, and Merge. Once
added to your tone, simply click on any block to select it, and then you'll be able to
choose the desired model type and tweak its parameters in the lower display pane of
the Home panel. To follow are a few editing tips (also see "Keyboard Shortcuts").
Adjusting Sliders - Obviously, you can drag a slider to edit its value, or you can
alternatively click the up/down arrow buttons at the right of the slider or tap your
comma & period keys for small, incremental adjustments (add the Shift key for
large adjustments). Also try a Ctrl-Click or Right-Click on a slider to manually type
in a precise numerical value.
Resetting Sliders - If you're not happy with your slider adjustment, Ctrl-Click on
the handle of the slider to reset it to its default value.
Accessing All Controls - Note that some model types, such as amps and com-
plex eects, may have more sliders and controls than you can see all at once in
the lower display pane. Use your mouse wheel or the vertical scroll bar in the lower
pane of the Home panel to get to all available options.
Editing Inputs & Outputs
Much like amp & eects blocks, you can click on the input and output blocks of any
path and access their options in the lower display pane of the Home panel. You'll
nd dierent parameters depending on the type of input or output you select from the
menu, such as Gate, Level, Pan, etc.
