SPEAKER SIMULATOR Function
The SPEAKER SIMULATOR function is included in all presets and provides a realistic approximation of a
miked speaker cabinet for applications involving connecting the Chameleon directly to a mixing board, recording
system or other full range system.
When a preset is recalled which has the Speaker Simulator on for either the left channel or both channels, the
front panel SPKR SIM LED will light.
Note: The parameters provided in this function are operational only when the SPKR SIM parameter
under the GLOBAL FUNCTION is stored UNLOCK, LOCK L or LOCK B.
The PARAMETER SELECT control will allow you to access these SPEAKER SIMULATOR parameters:
The SPEAKER SIMULATOR parameter allows you to select whether the Speaker
Simulator is on for BOTH outputs, on for only the LEFT output or OFF.
The SPEAKER TYPE parameter determines the type of speaker to be simulated.
15",12",10", 8" and full range speakers are available.
The MIC PLACEMENT parameter simulates a microphone placed anywhere from the
center of the speaker cone out to the edge of the cone. Positive parameter values
simulate moving the microphone toward the center of the speaker, while negative values
move it to the edge.
The REACTANCE parameter simulates the characteristics of the interaction between a
tube amplifier and a guitar speaker cabinet. The higher the parameter value selected, the
more these characteristics will be apparent. Negative values of reactance can be used to
simulate an open-back cabinet.
