Distortion
The OB-6 provides an analog distortion effect. This can be used to
add warmth, harmonic complexity, and an aggressive edge to sounds.
The character of the distortion is affected by the harmonic content of a
program. Sounds with more high-end will sound different than sounds
with fewer harmonics.
To add distortion:
1. Press and hold the effect button.
2. Turn the mix knob to set the distortion amount.
3. Release the
effect button.
