White Amp
White is based on an all-round great amp, a classic
that set the industry standard for classic, distorted
rock'n'roll sounds. The genius is its simplicity. It's
stripped down to the bare essentials – all tubes, only
one channel, and no reverb or any other built-in
effects.
Sound-wise, it goes from mad screaming preamp
shred, to warm, speakers-about-to-break poweramp
distortion. Perfect when you need a characteristically
distorted edge and a powerful roar.
First Usage
Set all parameters in the middle (12 o'clock). Turn down the Master Volume a little bit (to
10 o'clock) and play your guitar while changing the Pre Amp Volume. The sound goes
from almost Hi-Fi clean on low Pre Amp Volume settings, to a crunchy distortion (Pre
Amp Volume in the middle), and finally to a high-gain setting with Pre Amp Volume on
max. If you want an even meaner distortion, turn down the Middle and turn up the Master
Volume.
Tip: The sound will change quite dramatically when you start moving the
mic away from the cabinet, since certain frequencies will cancel each
other out due to interference between the four speaker drivers.
