Module name = Driver
Description = This is a very versatile stomp box that delivers anything from smooth overdrive
(with “Blues” turned up) to a heavily distorted and overloaded sound (“Gain” and “Muffler”
turned up high). The module uses a modified amp tone stack that allows for heavy mid scooping,
great for blues and rock & roll.

Module name = MagnaVibe
Description = Not to be confused with Tremolo, a vibrato is a frequency modulator that produces
an effect similar to the sound you hear when you bend the string up and down, changing its pitch.
This vibrato allows you to select a rate between 0 and 10 Hz, as well as a general depth. A knob for
“delay” allows the vibrato to kick in after you pluck the string, making it more transparent when
you play fast. Two modes are available, a “standard digital”, and an emulation of a certain “mag-
netic” stereo amp.

Module name = Tremolo
Description = A tremolo is an amplitude modulator. This effect “rotates” the volume at the range
of 0-10 Hz. Two variants are included: the classic “digi tal” tremolo (multiplying the signal with a
sine) and the even more classic “tube bias” tremolo (adding a sine to the bias of a tube, partly
saturating the signal). The tube bias variant adds a nat ural overtone and clarity. The digital
variant can adjust the up/down slope of the transition from soft to pulsing.
