The boost can also be activated by footswitch. 3) GAIN – This knob sets the gain level, and is the preamp’s most powerful control. It not only determines the amount of drive or saturation (for getting clean, crunch or overdriven sounds, or anywhere in between), but also plays an important role in tone shaping.
