48MainStage Effects
Stompbox Description
Tru-Tape Delay A vintage tape delay effect.
• On/Off switch: Enable/disable the pedal.
• Norm/Reverse switch: Change the delay playback direction.
• Hi/Lo Cut knobs: Adjust the range of the fixed frequency internal EQ.
• Dirt knob: Set the amount of input signal gain, which can introduce an
overdriven, saturated quality.
• Flutter knob: Emulate speed fluctuations in the tape transport
mechanism.
• Sync button: Turn on to synchronize with the host tempo.
• Time knob: Set the modulation speed in hertz, or synchronized with the
host tempo when you enable the Sync button.
• Feedback knob: Set the amount of effect output sent to the effect
input. The buildup of repeating signals can be used creatively for dub-
delay and other effects by adjusting Feedback in real time.
• Mix knob: Set the level ratio between source and effect signals.
MainStage Pedalboard filter pedals
This table describes the filter effects pedals.
Stompbox Description
Auto-Funk An auto-wah (filter) effect.
• On/Off switch: Enable/disable the pedal.
• Sensitivity knob: Set a threshold that determines how the filter
responds to incoming signal levels.
• Cutoff knob: Set the center frequency for the filter.
• BP/LP switch: BP (Bandpass): Signal frequencies just above and below
the cutoff are filtered. LP (Lowpass): Only signals below the cutoff are
allowed through the filter.
• Hi/Lo switch: Choose a preset filter resonance setting.
• Up/Down switch: Set a positive or negative modulation direction—the
“wah” filtering occurs above or below the source signal frequency.
Classic Wah A funky wah effect, straight from 1970s TV police show soundtracks. You
control it by dragging the pedal.
• On/Off switch: Enable/disable the pedal.
Graphic EQ A classic 7-band EQ pedal.
• On/Off switch: Enable/disable the pedal.
• Frequency sliders: Boost or cut the corresponding frequency band.
• Level slider: Set the overall output gain.
Modern Wah A more aggressive wah effect. You control it by dragging the pedal.
• On/Off switch: Enable/disable the pedal.
• Q knob: LowQ values affect a wider frequency range, resulting in softer
resonances. HighQ values affect a narrower frequency range, resulting
in more pronounced emphasis.
• Mode knob: Choose from the following:Retro Wah, Modern Wah, Opto
Wah 1, Opto Wah 2, Volume. Each has a different tonal quality.
