Compression. Adds sustain and smoothness by lowering the dynamic range.
Limiting. Retains the original volume, but smoothes out the loudest peaks.
Off. Turns COMP/LIMIT off.
Clean. The clean, natural sound of a quality acoustic guitar.
Warm. A dark, deep sound typical of guitars made of dense rosewood or
mahogany.
Bright. Accentuates the higher frequencies for a crisp sound usually found
in acoustics with smaller bodies.
Rhythm. A full, warm sound that's great for strumming rhythm parts.
Jumbo. Provides a little more low-end for that sound associated with
large-body acoustics.
Drive. Adds a crunch to your acoustic sound, as if you're playing through
a tube amplifier and pushing the gain. Higher values mean more
drive.
Off. Turns off DIST.
