Rocktron Utopia G100 - Manual (Page 19)

The first function displayed after turning the FUNCTION SELECT knob is the Global
function. The parameters provided in this function affect all presets (i.e. the settings stored for
these parameters are the same for all presets).
The PARAMETER SELECT knob will allow you to access these Global parameters:
GLOBAL Function
The OUTPUT parameter determines whether the output of the UTOPIA
G100 is a stereo (left and right) signal or two mono signals.
This SPEAKER SIMULATOR parameter under the Global function allows
you to globally (all presets) set the Speaker Simulator into the following
modes:
UNLOCK - Bypasses all Speaker Simulation on all presets leaving the
outputs full range.
LOCKOFF - If you have the Speaker Simulator "ON" in the Speaker Simula-
tor Function the Speaker Simulator will turn on when that preset is selected.
LOCK L (LEFT OUTPUT) - Locks the Speaker Simulator "ON" in the LEFT
OUTPUT and leaves the Right OUTPUT full range. Allows you to use the left
output for direct recording or direct to a PA and the right output to your amp
at the same time to perform live.
LOCK B (BOTH OUTPUTS) - Locks the Speaker Simulator "ON" in both
Left and Right Outputs. This is the ideal setting to use when using head-
phones.
The HUSH OFFSET parameter allows you to globally (all presets) adjust the
HUSH
® Expander Threshold. This means that if this parameter is altered
from 0(dB) to +3(dB), the Expander Threshold will be 3dB higher for all
presets. This feature can be useful when switching from a quiet guitar with
passive electronics to a noisy guitar with active electronics, as the active
guitar would require a higher Threshold level in all presets.

NOTE: If you would like to save any changes made to the GLOBAL PARAMETERS you must
STORE them at this time, before leaving the GLOBAL FUNCTION.
MASTER VOLUME The MASTER VOLUME parameter allows you to globally (all presets)
adjust the output level of the G100. It provides up to +6dBu more gain
and up to -40dBu of attenuation.
This is most helpful when using headphones to adjust the output level
to a comfortable level quickly. When patching the G100 outputs directly
into a power amp the extra +6dBu of gain can be used for more input
drive.
