Tone 0-25 High frequency roll-off (Post-Overdrive)
Level 0dB to 64dB Output level
Overdrive
A more aggressive overdrive
effect than Screamer, Overdrive is
designed to be used as a stomp
box — to push a clean amp chan-
nel into bluesy overdrive, or to take
a high-gain amp channel over the
top. Lo, Mid and Hi controls pro-
vide a considerable amount of gain.
InLvl determines overall Drive
sensitivity. When cranked up, Lo,
Mid and Hi behave like individual
distortion controls. When throttled
back to -15dB or so, Lo, Mid and Hi
behave more like traditional EQ
controls.
LoCut rolls off low frequencies
before they hit the overdrive circuit
(and your amp). This can be very
useful if your stage sound is muddy
and you need to cut through the
band.
The Feel parameter is a unique
feature of Lexicon’s Dynamic Gain
analog alogrithms. In this effect, it
mimics the subtle changes in dis-
tortion dynamics caused by differ-
ent power supplies. When set to 0,
the amount of compression/distor-
tion produced during the attack of
notes is relatively constant. As this
value is increased, you’ll notice a
difference in the feel of the attack
when using overdrive and moder-
ate amounts of distortion. The first
attack of a phrase of rapid picking
is a bit cleaner and has more bite
than those that follow. This mimics
the different “power sag” enve-
lopes characteristic of different
stomp box power sources. 0 corre-
sponds to the uniform response of
an AC adapter (9V). Values 1-32
approximate the increasinglly dy-
namic responses produced by vari-
ous batteries — from a fresh alka-
line battery (9.3V), to a fresh car-
bon-zinc battery (9.8V). Values
above 32 mimic tube-rectified
power supplies.
Tone provides high frequency
roll-off after the overdrive stage.
Level should be used to compen-
sate for gain added by InLvl, the
Tone controls and Drive.
