Tube Mode – Parameter Description
Overload Boosts the low frequencies of the input signal. Used together
with the Charge parameter (see above) it provides you with a
powerful tool to produce a richer, fatter sound.
Drive Adjusts the level of the input signal. This directly affects the
amount of tube distortion.
EQ Section
Bypass Enable this button to bypass the EQ section.
Bass Adjusts the level of the low frequency band.
Treble Adjusts the level of the high frequency band.
OUTPUT Section
Gain Adjusts the output level of the effect. Use this to compensate
for changes in volume caused by input gain and signal
compression.
15.7 Perform FX
Designed for spontaneous, tactile control in recording or live performance, these eight complex
multi-effects alter motion, space, dynamics, and more for added expression.
▪ Filter: The Filter is a raw-sounding, analog-modelled LP/BP/HP filter with additional satura-
tion parameters and resonance that can be pushed into self-oscillation. For more informa-
tion see section ↑15.7.1, Filter.
▪ Flanger: The Flanger is a comb filter effect. It can behave like a standard flanger or phaser
but can also go pretty wild and sound more like a creative delay if you push the decay and
delay time. Various tone-shaping controls are available. For more information see section
↑15.7.2, Flanger.
▪ Brst Echo: The Burst Echo is a warm, versatile echo with plenty of character. It's great as a
dub echo but can also be used for quite extreme sound design. For more information see
section ↑15.7.3, Burst Echo.
