BLEND OVERRIDE: This footswitch “overrides” or removes each channel’s BLEND
control from the signal path. With the BLEND knob set for a mix of DRY and O.D. signals,
engaging the BLEND OVERRIDE effectively removes the DRY component and reverts to a
100% O.D. signal.
This offers additional flexibility akin to having another channel on your amp. For example,
with the channel controls set for medium gain and the BLEND knob at 12 o’clock,
engaging the BLEND OVERRIDE footswitch lets you go from an organic clean tone with a
little grit to a fully overdriven sound for aggressive rhythm playing.
By carefully adjusting the DRY GAIN trimmer, you can control the change in volume – up,
down or unity gain – that occurs when engaging BLEND OVERRIDE. For example, as a
contrast to the above, you could set up your core drive tone with BLEND OVERRIDE
engaged, then transition to a cleaner "edgy" solo tone of greater volume by disengaging
BLEND OVERRIDE and turning the DRY GAIN control up.
Example Settings
Please note: the RE-AMP EQ controls should be set to match the connected amplifier. Set
OUTPUT to match the bypassed level or as a boost for solos.
LH channel: Clapton's Beano Album Dimed Marshall 1962 'Bluesbreaker' 30W combo.
RH channel: Manic Depression Jimi's Marshall of choice, the JMT45/100. Try placing a
fuzz and wah in front or roll down your guitar's volume for a classic late-sixties clean tone.
