The BBT500 also features more precise settings for defining the fre-
quencies for each of the Tone Control knobs, operating the Compressor
and Noise Gate, or setting the Blend Level of the effect loop, etc.
To access these settings, press the [FUNCTION] switch and use the
four Modes described below.
• Amp Mode
In this mode, each knob functions in the manner it is labeled on the
front panel.
• Equalizer Mode
This mode is used to set the 1-band parametric equalizer and the
center frequency for each of the Tone Controls (Bass – Treble).
• Compressor Mode
This mode is used to set the Compressor’s blend level, noise gate
level, and effect loop.
• Utility Mode
This mode is used to set the crossover filter, and individual MIDI
settings.
Individual settings in the Amp Mode, Equalizer Mode, and Compressor
Mode are saved when patch data is saved to the unit’s memory.
Individual parameter settings in the Equalizer Mode and Compressor
Mode are set to their default values when the power is switched ON.
Individual settings in the Utility Mode are saved when exiting the Utility
Mode, and they are retained even if the power is switched OFF.
