Front Panel
INTENSITY: Controlsthe intensity or Depth ofthe tremolo effect. This is
accomplished by varyingthe amplitude of the LFOthat controls the tremolo. Atminimum position,the LFO is off and notremolo effect is heard,but the signal stilltravels through thetremolo ‘circuit’.
DECAY: Varies the reverb time from
short to long. The ‘70s and ‘80s verbs will
approach ‘infinite’ decay at maximum.
MIX: Controls the reverb wetmix from full dry at minimumto full wet with no dry signal atmaximum. A 50/50 mix occursaround 3 o’clock on the mixknob.
SPEED: Variesthe tremolo LFOfrequency from slowto fast. The slowrange is extendedto give lower tremspeeds than weregenerally availablein the vintageofferings.
COLOR: Varies thereverb tone fromdarker at low settingto brighter at highersettings. This is critifor dialing in the swespot in front of a varof amps.
TREMOLO BYPASS FOOTSWITCH: Engages and disengages tremolo.
REVERB BYPASS FOOTSWITCH: Engages and disengages reverb. Bypass mode is truebypass by default. LED on indicates that the effect isengaged. TIP: Hold the Reverb Bypass footswitch duringpower up to change the bypass mode to analog bypasswith trails (reverb persist).

Secondary Functions
Hold down TREMOLO BYPASS and REVERB BYPASS to access all secondaryfunctions on the knobs.
EFFECT ORDER: Setswhether the signal travels
through Reverb then Tremoloor Tremolo then Reverb. Thedefault is Reverb throughTremolo as this is how manyvintage amplifier circuitsworked.
TAP DIVISION: Sets the desiredtap division forthe Tremolo LFOwhen an externalTAP footswitch isused.
REVERB BOOST /CUT: Controls the+/- 3dB boost orcut when Reverbis engaged. Set
to 12 o’clock forunity gain.
