This effect adds soft overdrive, with independent control
over the second and third harmonic.
The following parameters are available:
VST Amp Rack
The VST Amp Rack is a powerful guitar amp simulator. It
offers a choice of amplifiers and speaker cabinets that can
be combined with stomp box effects. The plug-in pro-
cesses the mono sum of the channel and outputs a mono
or stereo signal, depending on the track configuration.
At the top of the plug-in panel there are six buttons, ar-
ranged according to the position of the corresponding el-
ements in the signal chain. These buttons open different
pages in the Display section of the plug-in panel: Pre-
Effects, Amplifiers, Cabinets, Post-Effects, Microphone
Position, and Master.
Below the Display section, the selected amplifier is
shown. The color and texture of the area below the ampli-
fier indicate the selected cabinet.
Pre/Post-Effects
On the Pre-Effects and the Post-Effects pages, you can
select up to six common guitar effects. On both pages the
same effects are available, the only difference being the
position in the signal chain (before and after the amplifier).
On each page, every effect can be used once.
Each effect features an On/Off button known from stomp-
box effects, as well as individual parameters. The following
effects and parameters are available:
