Roland CUBE 20XL - Manual (Page 10)

8
EXTREME
This is an extreme sound with intense distortion.
This is a high-gain sound that packs a lot of punch in the low end,
while delivering a great deal of edge in the upper range.
You can obtain variations in the sound by moving the [MIDDLE] knob.
If you turn on HEAVY OCTAVE, you can achieve an even greater sense
of distortion in the low end.
Space Clean
This is a transparent sound using spacial effects.
Select the JC CLEAN amp, modeled on the Roland JC-120, then add
chorus and long delay.
Using this setting with a guitar equipped with single coil pickups
makes great sounding arpeggios and chord strumming.
Depending on the phrase being played, it can be effective to set the
delay sound’s delay time slightly slower than the phrase’s tempo.
Power Grunge
This produces a raging distortion sound that is very trebly and roughly
textured.
Setting the [GAIN] knob to prevent excessive distortion of the guitar
sound results in a straight guitar sound with brilliant harmonics and
powerful chord sounds.
You can also add the FLANGER to produce a sound with a powerful
swirling effect, much like the sound from a jet.
Additionally, using the guitar’s front pickup and raising the [GAIN] and
[MIDDLE] knobs results in a fat lead sound with long sustain.
Alternative Metal
The perfect sound for heavy, sharp riffs.
Select the high-gain METAL STACK, then use the equalizer to boost the
low end even more.
Used with a humbucking pickup in the rear position, it results in an
extreme distortion effect.
Plus, you can add a long delay to use this as a lead sound with great
sustain.
Adding a short delay produces a doubling sound like that from two
performers playing the same phrases simultaneously.
