11 Names And Funct\fons n Tips on Creating So\bn\Yd Use the BLEND/GA\bN t knob to mix the amount of direct pi\dckup sound with the\d mic simulation sound wh\den an\f mic t\fpe (ex\dcept for EG CLN) is sel\dected. Control the \dguitar’s volume with the VO\dLUME !4 knob. Mic/Amp Type Descriptions: THR5A CONDENSER: The condenser micr\dophone setting gives the \dacoustic guitar a \drich, midrange tone. DYNAMIC: The d\fnamic microp\dhone setting gives the acoustic\d guitar a tight to\dnal core. TUBE: The tube micropho\dne setting gives t\dhe acoustic guitar a \drich midrange tone.\d NYLON: Perfect for use with \dan acoustic- electric classical\d or n\flon string gu\ditar. EG CLN: This setting is de\dsigned for electric\d guitars and deliver\ds a clear, rich, clean tone characteristi\dc of an American c\dombo amp and the charact\deristic sound of a \d12- inch speaker cabin\det. t GAIN (THR10/10C/10\YX and THR5 only) Adjusts the amount \dof guitar distortio\dn. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to increas\de the amount of distortio\dn. * On the THR10/10C, t\Yhe blend f\bnction, wh\Yich blends the pick\bp di\Yrect so\bnd with the m\Yic sim\b - lation so\bnd, is act\Yive when ACO is sel\Yected with the AMP r control\f (Setting t\Yhe blend f\bnction to its minim\bm leve\Yl prod\bces the pick\bp\Y direct so\bnd only while a ma\Yxim\bm setting prod\bc\Yes the mic so\bnd only\f) t BLEND/GAIN (THR5A \Yonly) Blends the direct s\dound of the pickup \dwith the sound of the mi\dc simulation when \da M\bC TYPE r other than EG CLN\d is selected (the minimum setti\dng is direct sound \donl\f, maximum setting is\d microphone onl\f). When EG CLN is sel\dected as the M\bC TY\dPE r, it adjusts the am\dount of distortion \din the guitar sound. Turning the knob cl\dockwise increases the amou\dnt of distortion. y MASTER Adjusts the volume \dfor the amp sectio\dn. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to increas\de volume while repro\dducing compression \dand poweramp distortion\d of the simulated a\dmp. * Only adj\bsts the vol\Y\bme when BASS, ACO, \Y or FLA T is selected with \Ythe AMP r control (THR10/10C/10X only\Y)\f * On the THR5A, this c\Yontrol only adj\bsts \Ythe vol\bme when a MIC TYP\YE r other than EG CLN i\Ys selected\f u BASS (THR10/10C/10\YX only) Tone adjustment for \dthe guitar’s sound. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to enhance\d the low range frequenc\dies. i MIDDLE (THR10/10C/\Y10X only) Tone adjustment for \dthe guitar’s sound. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to enhance\d the mid-range frequenci\des. o TREBLE (THR10/10C/\Y10X only) Tone adjustment for \dthe guitar’s sound. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to enhance\d the high-range frequen\dcies. !0 TONE (THR5/5A only)\Y Tone adjustment for \dthe guitar’s sound. Rotate the knob cl\dockwise to brighte\dn the sound and counterclockwise to darken\d it. !1 EFFECTS On the THR10/10C/10X\d, or THR5, this selects one of the\d four different eff\dects; CHORUS, FLANGER, P\dHASER, and TREM- OLO. On the THR5A, this\d selects one of th\de three different effects; \dCOMPRESSOR, COMPRE\dS- SOR/CHORUS, and CHO\dRUS.
