Strategy 500 SwitchTrack™ Power Amplifier Operating Manual 1
WHAT IS SWITCHTRACK? SwitchTrack is like having two stereo power amps in one: Track 1 can be set for clean while Track 2 is set to enhance distortion. It's like having Channel-switching in your power amp only more - because SwitchTrack is not limited to switching between clean response and distortion. You can easily set it to switch between two different clean sounds. Or two different distortion sounds (one for crunch, another for lead) with different lows, highs, power levels and gain structures.
The most common setting for SwitchTrack is to assign one or both of the rockers to Track 2 and coordinate your system so Track 2 is synched with your Lead playing. This maximizes the distortion response while retaining the purity of Track 1 for clean rhythm performance. But the unique design of the SwitchTrack system lets you switch between any two of the many possible power amp sounds, so be sure to experiment with different settings for various musical styles and room configurations.
