User Guide

Volume – This control works the same on each channel, and simply allows
for more or less volume. There's a great deal of this on tap, and if you like
you can use it as a clean, fattening-up boost – Brent has used it like that in
the studio and on the stage many times. It's great for kicking in your amp,
or cranking up Channel 1 with low Overdrive settings and then hitting
Channel Two's heavier sound hard. Channel Two has plenty of volume as
well. It's up to you how you want to set up their relative volume levels.
Tone – This adjusts between a much darker, bassier sound at the fully
counterclockwise position, to a very highs-forward, present sound fully
clockwise. Channel One's Tone is a little bit more open sounding, while
Channel Two has more of a focus on its specic areas – characteristics
normally associated with overdrives and distortions, respectively. It's not a
bad idea to start at noon and adjust in small increments from there to let
your ears get used to the sound of the pedal as you raise or lower the Tone
knob, on both channels. The Tone knobs work together with the Fat/Nor-
mal/Fatter switches to determine the overall shape of the sound.
Overdrive / Distortion – For better accuracy, these controls have been
renamed to t the channel they're on, but they still perform the function
of raising the amount of dirt regardless of the name. When stacking the
channels together, keep in mind that you can end up with way too much
distortion if you crank both controls
Channel 1 Blend – This control works to go from a totally clean signal at
fully counterclockwise to just the overdriven signal at fully clockwise. We
think you'll nd a lot of magic in the space between those two extremes,
where you can dial in some great clarity, some cut-through of your great
clean tone into the overdriven sound. If you like the Ego Compressor's
blend functionality, you should love this! Raising the Blend does raise the
overall volume, so watch out for that when you're still learning how the
pedal works.
Fat/Normal/Fatter Switches – A big change from the original Hot Wired,
Brian made sure to have two three-position switches, one per channel,
and really hot-rod how they interact with the tone control. Normal is the
middle position and doesn't aect the sound. Fat starts to add some
low-mid punch. Fatter is for when you want to have a tone that's BIG!
Perfect for dialing in each channel's sound individually to work with
guitars that have an inherently leaner or fatter sound, they also contribute
to a lot of exibility on the Tone knobs since you can dial in more highs
with the Tone set higher but then switch it to Fat or Fatter and ensure that
you don't lose any of your midbass frequencies.
