What it does
- Tube saturation effect with four tube modes: Triode and three Pentode settings.
- Bias control limits the virtual tube current, from full grit to starved fizz, with an ammeter display.
- Dynamics control gates below or compresses above a threshold to focus where distortion lands.
- The output EQ has low-pass and high-pass, plus a 630 Hz tilt giving 12 dB each way, along with dry/wet and a stereo mode.
