Power amp Presence B knob. This knob determines the power amp's high frequency
response when is activated. The green LED next to the knob lights up to
indicate isactive.
The two Presence knobs afford you a host of interesting and worthwhile options for
shaping sounds: You can dial in different settings on the Presence A and B knobs (for
example,set to10o'clockand to3o'clock)andassignthesetwo
knobs to different preamp channels and sound modes ( & ) in various
MIDI presets. Note that simply switching from to while the
preamp setting remains the same yields different sonic results, not to mention all the
otheroptions.Again,Irecommendthatyouexploreandexperimentfreelytodiscover

Push the Depth Boost button to beef up the bottom end by about 6 dB. The red LED
above the button lights up to indicate the power amp Depth Boost feature is
activated. It can also be activated remotely via MIDI program change or Custom Z-9
Footswitch.
In contrast to the preamp feature (21), is wired into the
power amp circuitry (specifically in the feedback circuit). Though they both boost
bottom-end frequencies, these two functions have different effects. In combination
with the Presence A and B knobs, forms a separate power amp voicing
section that you can mix and match with different preamp channel settings and the
