Suggested Settings
(These settings are general starting points. They
are designed to get you close to the sound you
are looking for. If the control is not shown, then it
doesn't apply to this particular sound.)
Clean Rhythm/Country Guitar - these settings are for basic clean sounds including rhythm guitar,
country lead guitar, and funky/chunky rhythm sounds. Usually, country guitar is a brighter, more trebly
edged sound. The bottom end depends on what type of guitar you are using. Reverb depends on
taste. Rhythm guitar is commonly a clean full sound, using a little less treble than the country sound
and a bit more midrange. Reverb, again depends on taste.
Medium-Gain Rock and Blues - this setting is particularly useful in blues or classic rock songs. It is
good for leads as well as rhythm parts. It is also useful for power chords. You need to switch to the
lead channel to make these settings work. Blues, depending on the guitar you use, usually adds
treble but with more midrange and a “fat” bottom end. Adjust the gain control to the amount of
distortion you desire. Blues often has a reverb trail on the notes. Adjust to taste.
Alternative/Harder Edged Rock - this setting will deliver more of a cutting tone. Whether used for
rhythm or lead sounds, it will “cut” through the drums and get you heard. If you need more “grunge”,
increase the gain control for more distortion. This style of music requires a slightly thinner, harder
edged tone full of midrange. Less reverb is required as it tends to muddy up faster songs. Adjust to
taste.
Heavy Metal/Maximum Crunch - this setting is a good starting point for the “notched-out middle”
sounds associated with metal and heavy alternative sounds. Adjust the Treble, Lows, and Delay to
taste. Usually, for a rhythm tone, you want to have more lower end and less for leads. Distortion is
an integral part of this style of music, so crank up the Gain.
