General Tube Sound for Single Coil
This is a tube sound that works well with single-coil pickups.
Use this in conjunction with overdrive and connect as follows.
Guitar → overdrive → this unit → guitar amp
In this case, adjust the overdrive output level so that the Nutube on this
unit goes dark at the moment that you play. This gives you a vacuum tube
sound even when you’re playing with a transistor-type guitar amp or
when playing through a line output.
The adjustable half-fixed volume settings are shown below.
TONE: 12 o’clock; SUSTAIN: 8 o’clock; THRESHOLD: 11 o’clock
Jazz Backing for Humbucher
This sound works well with jazz backing riffs played on a humbucking
pickup. Try playing some of the great songs of the past with this setting.
The adjustable half-fixed volume settings are shown below.
TONE: 10 o’clock; SUSTAIN: 9 o’clock; THRESHOLD: 10 o’clock.
