Fuzz, Overdrive And Distortion Controls - Empress Effects multidrive User Manual

Fuzz, Overdrive and Distortion Controls

Each section has a dedicated volume, gain and lter control.
This allows for an extremely wide range of sonic possibilities.
lter: engages a high pass lter (hp) or a low pass lter (lp)
for this section. This switch allows you to use only the high
frequencies of one section with only the low frequencies from
another section. For example: you could combine the tight
lows of the distortion section with the classic, high frequency,
sustain of the fuzz section. The cuto frequency is 500 Hz for
both the high-pass and low-pass lter settings.
