3. Tone Controls - When using Firehawk Remote with your mobile
device, all tone adjustments can be made using the app Editor
screen. You can also tweak your guitar sound manually with these
Firehawk FX onboard Tone Controls:
• DRIVE: Adjusts the current Amp Model's Drive level.
• BASS, MID, TREBLE: Adjusts the Bass, Mid and Treble levels for
the current Amp Model's tone stack.
• FX: Adjusts the FX parameter assigned to the “FX Tweak” feature
as part of the Preset. This assignment can be edited in the
Firehawk Remote app.
• REVERB: Adjusts the Reverb level for the current Preset.
4. Master Volume Knob - This big knob controls the overall output
level. It also includes a secondary function of adjusting your guitar
level relative to the overall audio mix. This can be useful when you're
jamming to a track and your guitar level is too soft or too loud.
To achieve a good balance, simply press the Master Volume knob to
activate its secondary function, then set your guitar level as desired.
After 5 seconds, the knob reverts to Master Volume control.

Volume knob lights up in various ways, depending on the current
parameter being adjusted.

White LEDs indicate the current guitar level.
• Tone Controls: When an individual control is adjusted, its current
Preset’s saved level is indicated by a single red LED. All other
LEDs are lit white to display the current level as you turn the knob.
