Wet/Dry The amount of distorted (wet) signal relative to unaffected (dry) signal.
Out Gain The overall gain or amplitude at the output of the effect. For distortion, it is often
necessary to turn the output gain down as the distortion drive is turned up.
Dist Drive Applies a boost to the input signal to overdrive the distortion algorithm. When
overdriven, the distortion algorithm will soft-clip the signal. Since distortion drive will
make your signal very loud, you may have to reduce the Out Gain as the drive is
increased.
Warmth A lowpass filter in the distortion control path. This filter may be used to reduce some of
the harshness of some distortion settings without reducing the bandwidth of the signal.
Cab Bypass The guitar amplifier cabinet simulation may be bypassed. When set to “In”, the cabinet
simulation is active; when set to “Out”, there is no cabinet filtering. [MonoDistort + Cab]
Cab Preset Eight preset cabinets have been created based on measurements of real guitar amplifier
cabinets. The presets are Plain, Lead 12, 2x12, Open 12, Open 10, 4x12, Hot 2x12, and Hot
12. [MonoDistort + Cab]
Highpass Allows you to reduce the bass content of the distortion content. If you need more filtering
to better simulate a speaker cabinet, you will have to choose a larger distortion algorithm.
[Mono Distortion]
Cabinet HP A highpass filter which controls the low frequency limit of a simulated loudspeaker
cabinet. [MonoDistort + EQ and StereoDistort+EQ]
Cabinet LP A lowpass filter which controls the high frequency limit of a simulated loudspeaker
cabinet. [MonoDistort + EQ and StereoDistort+EQ]
Bass Gain The amount of boost or cut that the bass shelving filter should apply to the low frequency
signals in dB. Every increase of 6 dB approximately doubles the amplitude of the signal.
Positive values boost the bass signal below the specified frequency. Negative values cut
the bass signal below the specified frequency. [MonoDistort + EQ and StereoDistort+EQ]
Bass Freq The center frequency of the bass shelving filter in intervals of one semitone. [MonoDistort
+ EQ and StereoDistort+EQ]
Treb Gain The amount of boost or cut that the treble shelving filter should apply to the high
frequency signals in dB. Every increase of 6 dB approximately doubles the amplitude of
the signal. Positive values boost the treble signal above the specified frequency. Negative
values cut the treble signal above the specified frequency. [MonoDistort + EQ and
StereoDistort+EQ]
Treb Freq The center frequency of the treble shelving filter in intervals of one semitone.
