To add a tip, please insert at the end and don't forget the four dashes ----


Press and hold ENTER to automatically place and route shunts all the way to the output mixer.


Each time EDIT is pressed, the next effect edit page is displayed. If you are on a different page, the edit page for the nearest effect will be displayed.


Hold down BYPASS to restore all parameters of an effect block to default.


Each time ENTER is pressed while in the sequencer menu, a new random set of values is loaded. You can use this feature to find cool sequence patterns.


The "bright switch" of an amp block may be enabled by selecting the TREB control and pressing ENTER. This will toggle the state of the switch. The text “BRT” will appear under the control when the bright circuit is active.


The "boost switch" of an amp may be enabled selecting the DRIVE control and pressing ENTER. This will toggle the state of the switch. The text “BOOST” will appear under the control when the boost circuit is active. The boost switch adds 12db of gain to the amp simulation. This is useful to get more drive out the amp than it would normally have.


In addition to copying effects block parameters, the controller parameters can also be copied(i.e, Envelope, ADSR, LFO, etc) from one preset to another. Just press the RECALL button, page over to the EFFECT tab, select the proper preset to copy from, then select controller from the Retrieve area.


You can use the feedback send and return to extend the length of a chain if necessary.


On units built prior to mid-July 2007 the serial number is underneath the main-board. The serial number now is located on the back next to the AC inlet.


One thing to try is to use two amps but only one cab. The amps are mono but the cabs are stereo. So you can feed two amps into one cab block. This will save roughly 10% CPU.


With the power amp simulation off, the depth and deep controls are deactivated; the master becomes a volume control and the presence controls turns into a shelving filter.
