Lead Channel - Peavey TransTube Series Operating Manual

position changes the overall function of the EQ and adds a hint of brightness to emulate
some classic amp designs. Experiment with this switch, along with Clean EQ (9) adjustments,
to capture your desired tone. You may refer to the Recommended Settings on page 11 for
some creative starting points.
9. Clean EQ
The TransTube EQ featured on the Clean channel of your amp offers 3-band tone
adjustment. Each EQ control is passive (does not add gain) and has a frequency range
dependent on the position of the Modern/Vintage Switch. Reducing the control to the "0"
position (fully counterclockwise) introduces maximum cut in level for the particular band. Low,
Mid and High bands are available for adjustment.

LEAD CHANNEL

10. Pre Gain
The Pre Gain control sets the input level of the Lead channel. Adjusting this control fully
clockwise will result in maximum gain. This control is often used to adjust the amount of
distortion present in the Lead channel.
11. Modern/Vintage/High Gain- Switch
This switch changes both the gain and voicing of the Lead channel. Selecting the
MODERN setting increases the overall gain and notches (cuts) the mid frequencies to
establish a modern tone often associated with Hard Rock and Metal styles. The VINTAGE
position uses the TransTube circuitry to emulate overdriven tube sounds of the past. The
HIGH GAIN setting increases the overall gain and changes the EQ. This creates a tighter
response at lower Pre Gain settings or an "over the top" sound at higher Pre Gain settings.
Experiment with this switch setting while adjusting the Lead EQ (12) to help you obtain your
desired tone. You may refer to the Recommended Settings on page 11 for some creative
starting points.
