38 Chapter 2 Distortion <strong>Effects</strong><br />

• Sum LPF knob and field: Sets the cutoff frequ<strong>en</strong>cy (in Hertz) of the lowpass filter. This<br />

processes the mixed signal.<br />

• (High Shelving) Frequ<strong>en</strong>cy knob and field: Sets the frequ<strong>en</strong>cy (in Hertz) of the high<br />

shelving filter. If you set the High Shelving Frequ<strong>en</strong>cy to around 12 kHz, you can use it<br />

like the treble control on a mixer channel strip or a stereo hi-fi amplifier. Unlike these<br />

types of treble controls, however, you can boost or cut the signal by up to plus or minus<br />

30 dB with the Gain parameter.<br />

• (High Shelving) Gain knob and field: Sets the amount of gain applied to the output signal.<br />

Distortion Effect<br />

The Distortion effect simulates the lo-fi, dirty distortion g<strong>en</strong>erated by a bipolar transistor.<br />

You can use it to simulate playing a musical instrum<strong>en</strong>t through a highly overdriv<strong>en</strong><br />

amplifier, or to create unique distorted sounds.<br />

• Drive slider and field: Sets the amount of saturation applied to the signal.<br />

• Display: Shows the impact of parameters on the signal.<br />

• Tone knob and field: Sets the frequ<strong>en</strong>cy for the high cut filter. Filtering the harmonically<br />

rich distorted signal produces a softer tone.<br />

• Output slider and field: Sets the output level. This allows you to comp<strong>en</strong>sate for increases<br />

in loudness caused by adding distortion.
