Distortion section:

Amp Simulator

Amplifier simulation effect. Several types of amp types are simulated. Great for creating edgy sounds.

Type of amp simulation. Settings are:- None, 4x10" guitar speakers, 4x12" guitar speakers, Bass speaker, Combo speaker and Radio speaker.

Distort Amount of distortion added to the sound.

Cabinet Simulator

Several types of cabinet types are simulated. Great for creating edgy sounds.

Type of cabinet simulation. Settings are:- None,Fender,Marshall & Off Axis.

Distort Amount of distortion added to the sound.

Clipper

Hard clipper, this limits output which is to above or below the set clipping level

Negative The clipping level for the negative signal. From 0% (no clipping) to 100% (maximum clipping).

Positive The clipping level for positive signal. From 0% (no clipping) to 100% (maximum clipping).

Amount, the amount of clipping from 0% (no clipping) to 100% (fully clipped)

Cos

Cosine distortion effect.

Frequency, Frequency of the cosine effect.

Amount, Amount of cosine distortion

Cross 1

Cross, Position for cross distortion

Amount, Amount of cross distortion

Cross 2

Negative Cross distortion position for the negative signal

Positive Cross distortion position for the positive signal.

Amount, Amount of cross distortion.

Foldover

Fold-over distortion, this amplifies and then ?folds over? the sound.

Frequency Frequency of the fold-over distortion.

Amount, Amount of fold-over distortion

Fuzz

Fuzz-box distortion

Frequenter Frequency of the fuzz-distortion effect

Amount, Amount of fuzz distortion

Gapper

Gapper distortion,

Frequency Frequency of the gapper distortion effect

Amount, Amount of fuzz distortion

Hard-limiter

Hard limiter, this limits output which is to above or below the set limit level and then

boosts the signal.

Limit The clipping level for the signal. From 0% (no limiting) to 100% (maximum limiter).

Amount, The amount of post-limiting boosting.

Low-Fi

Low-Fi effect, this reduces the sample & bit rate & adds noise to the signal.

Bits Bit level of the signal.

Sample Rate Sample rate of the signal.

Noise Amount of noise added to the signal.

OverDrive

Over-drive effect

Drive, Drive for the over-drive effect

Amount Over-drive mixing amount..

Octave 1

Octave effect, this shifts the sound up an octave,

Negative Mixing for the negative signal

Positive Mixing for the positive signal.

Octave 2

Octave effect type 2,

Frequency Frequency of the octave effect.

Amount, Amount of octave effect.

Power

Power wave-shaping effect.

Drive, drive for the power effect

Amount, Power mixing amount.

Rectify

Rectifies the signal, by multiplying the negative signal

Rectification Rectification of the negative signal, from -100% (no rectification), 0% (half rectification) to 100% (full rectification)

Amount, Rectification mixing amount.

Ring Modulation

The ring modulates (multiplies) different signals together depending on the type.

Type Sine, Saw, Sqr & Tri, multiplies the input with the set oscillator.

Frequency Sets the oscillator frequency.

Amount Sets the ring modulation amount.

Saturate

Saturation effect.

Saturation Saturation level

Amount Saturation mixing amount

SoftLimit

Soft-limiter effect

Amount Soft-limiter amount

Squarify

Squares the signal (turns it to a square wave), and then lowpass filter it.

Negative Amount the negative signal is turned to a square wave

Positive Amount the positive signal is turned to a square wave

Filter Amount this square wave is lowpass filtered.

Transient

Distorts the transients, i.e. the beginnings of sounds.

Range Transient range

Amount Transient distortion amount.

Tube Simulator

Tube distortion effect, by saturating, limiting, rectifying and bandpass filtering the input.

Limit, Hard limiter threshold.

Rect Amount of rectification, from -100% (no change), 0% (half) to 100% (full).

Saturate Amount of saturation..

Tone Frequency of the band pass filter.

Emphasis Bandwidth of the band pass filter.

Filter section:

RP-Distort has a low & high pass filter, in the order low-pass filter then high-pass filter

12 / 24 DB Selects between a 12dB and a 24dB filter

Low Frequency of the low pass filter

Low Q Resonance of the low pass filter

High Frequency of the high pass filter

High Q Resonance of the high pass filter

EQ Unit:

4 Band Equalizer effect.

On / Off The ?EQ? label turns on & off the EQ effect.

Low 125 Hz volume

Mid 1 500 Hz volume

Mid 2 2 kHz volume

High 8 kHz volume

Noise gate unit, the noise-gate is an audio effect that removes any sound (?gates?) that is below a threshold volume.

On / Off The ?Gate? label turns on / off the noise-gate effect.

Threshold This sets the threshold on which the noise-gate starts to work.

Attack This sets how fast the noise-gate returns to normal after the input volume is over the threshold.

Hold This sets how long the input volume has to below the threshold volume before the noise-gate is triggered.

Release This sets how long the noise-gate takes to reduce the volume to zero after the noise-gate is triggered.
