Level
This control offers up to 12dB of volume boost or cut, with the center
position being unity gain (no level change). With the player’s main
instrument, begin by setting this control to the center position and
then dialing in the rest of the rig. Then adjust the Level control up or
down as needed depending on the output level of subsequent
guitars. Humbucking or active pickups may require a cut in gain
(counter-clockwise) while vintage single-coil type pickups might
require more gain (clockwise) to sound right.
Hi-Freq
The Hi-Freq gain control behaves similarly to the Level control,
except that it only affects very high frequencies. This control is
designed to add a little sparkle to darker pickups, or to warm up
overly bright pickups. Like the Level control, this control offers up to
12dB of boost or cut.
Load Switch
The Load Switch applies capacitance to the input and loads guitar
pickups in the same way that a traditional tube amp might. Note that
the effect can be subtle, and the results will differ depending on (as
with a tube amp) the type of pickups in use, instrument volume pot
value and setting, and cables.
Jewel Indicator
The jewel is illuminated when the pedal is not muted, letting players
know they’re ready to rock.
Mute Footswitch
This rugged footswitch mutes the main output jack, to allow for silent
tuning.
