Explanation
This selects a stereo limiter .
This models a dbx 160X .
This models a UREI 1178 .
Adjust this as appropriate for the input
signal from your guitar . When the input
signal level exceeds this threshold level,
limiting will be applied .
This selects the compression ratio used with
signals in excess of the threshold level .
Adjusts the volume .
Adjusts the strength of the picking attack
when the strings are played . Higher values
result in s sharper attack, creating a more
clearly defined sound .
Adjusts the release time .
Explanation
Adjusts the depth of distortion .
Adjusts the tone .
Adjusts the volume of the OD/DS sound .
Adjusts the tone for the low frequency range .
Turning this to the left (counterclockwise)
produces a sound with the low end cut;
turning it to the right boosts the low end in
the sound .
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound .

EFFECT
Explanation
Adjusts the low frequency range tone .
Adjusts the high frequency range tone .
Adjusts the overall volume level of the
equalizer .
Specifies the center of the frequency range
that will be adjusted by the LOW-MID GAIN .
Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the LOW-MID FREQ . Higher
values will narrow the area .
Adjusts the low-middle frequency range
tone .
Specifies the center of the frequency range
that will be adjusted by the HIGH-MID GAIN .
Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the HIGH-MID FREQ . Higher
values will narrow the area .
Adjusts the low-middle frequency range
tone .
This sets the frequency at which the low
cut filter begins to take effect . When FLAT is
selected, the low cut filter will have no effect .
This sets the frequency at which the high
cut filter begins to take effect . When FLAT
is selected, the high cut filter will have no
effect .
Explanation
Fat tone with boosted mid range .
Bright tone with boosted high-mid range .
Mild tone with the high end cut back .
Tone with the low frequencies cut .
This produces a tone with greater power
and punch by adding resonance in the
low-frequency range and midrange .
Adjusts the tone for the low frequency
range .
Adjusts the tone for the High frequency
range .
Adjusts the volume of the effect sound .
This adjusts the strength of the low-end and
midrange resonance when TYPE is set to
RESO 1, 2, or 3 .
