PostEQ Level Off, -49.5dB to +24dB This parameter controls the output level of the main
amp before the output EQ.
Speaker LPF 10Hz to 20.0kHz Attenuates the high frequency content of the signal
driving the distortion at a rate of 6dB per octave starting
at the corner frequency set by this parameter.
The high-frequency bandwidth acts as a low pass filter
on the signal going into the distortion, controlling the
amount of high frequencies that will pass into the effect.
The higher the setting, the more high frequencies are
allowed to pass. This functions like a tone control on a
guitar.
Gate Thresh -96.0dB to 0.0dB Sets the upper threshold level at which the noise gate
passes the audio.
Gate Hysteresis 0dB to 48dB Sets the lower threshold level relative to Gate Thresh,
below which the noise gate shuts off the audio.
Dly1 Time 1/1 Sys to 1/32 Sys, 0ms to
630ms
Sets the amount of delay time for the first independent
delay.
Dly1 Level Off, -49.5dB to +12.0dB Adjusts the volume of the delayed signal against the
original dry signal.
Dly1 Feedback -99% to +99% Determines the amount of signal that will be fed from
the output back into the input, increasing the number of
repeats in the delay.
Dly1 Damping 100Hz to 21.2kHz Controls the cutoff of a low pass filter on the feedback
signal, which adjusts the amount of damping to the
feedback signals. The lower the number, the more the
signals are damped.
Dly1 Pan Full <L to Full >R Determines the location of the delay in the stereo
spectrum.
Dly2 Time 1/1 Sys to 1/32 Sys, 0ms to
630ms
Sets the amount of delay time for the second
independent delay.
Dly2 Level Off, -49.5dB to +12.0dB Adjusts the volume of the delayed signal against the
original dry signal.
Dly2 Pan Full <L to Full >R Determines the location of the delay in the stereo
spectrum.

Dist LPF Fc 10Hz to 20.0kHz Filters out high frequencies prior to the distortion.
Dist Offset -99% to +99% Adjusts the balance of even-to-odd-generated
harmonics.
Dist Gain Off, -49.5dB to +48dB Controls the gain going into the distortion effect. This
will boost the signal level up to 48 dB. For more
distortion, use a high input level gain and turn the
distortion volume down to keep the volume under
control. For less distortion, use a low gain input level
and a higher output volume.
Dist Curve Soft, Medium 1, Medium 2,
Hard, Buzz
Selects the type of clipping produced by the distortion.
The curves range from tube-like distortion (Soft) to
nasty distortion (Buzz).
Dist Volume Off, -99dB to 0.0dB Controls the volume of the distortion effect. Generally, if
the distortion gain is set high, set this parameter lower.
Post VCF Fc 10Hz to 7.10kHz Determines the filter cut off-frequency after the
distortion. Higher values have a brighter sound. This
parameter can be used to emulate a speaker cabinet.
Post VCF Q 1.0 to 40.0 Determines the level and width of the resonant peak at
the filter cutoff point. While the Post VCF Fc parameter
determines where (at what-frequency) this peak will
occur, this parameter controls the sharpness of the peak.
