Tips and tricks for working
with Amp simulation
► On some amplifiers, what is called “PreGain”
and “PostGain” in VL3X is called “Gain” and
“Volume” respectively.
► More PreGain results in more distortion at
high levels. If you want a crunchy or distorted
sound, turn down the PostGain, adjust Pre-
Gain until you reach the amount of distortion
you like, then turn up PostGain until the output
volume is similar to that of other guitar Pre-
sets. You can do this by ear.
► Styles that have “Clean”, “Crunch” etc. in their
names can still be adjusted to have more, less
or no distortion using the PreGain and Post
Gain controls.
