Frequently Asked Questions
The reactive load simulates the power amp section’s interaction with the speaker, adding sag and compression that significantly enhances the perceived amp-like qualities.
While it excels as a distortion, you can dial back the Drive control and utilize the EQ section to get a very convincing clean amp tone, albeit with a slightly different character than a purely clean amp.
The speed range is best suited for classic tremolo styles; while the 'Multi' setting expands it, it’s not ideal for very fast or modern tremolo effects.
