4.9 The Distortion module 37

Filter and Body modules are switched off. When the Pickup, the Filter and Body modules are on,

the output signal from the Pickup is ﬁltered by the Filter and Body modules. Finally, when the

Pickup module is switched off, the output signal from the String is sent directly to the Filter and

Body module.

4.9 The Distortion module

The Distortion module implements a simple distortion effect, such

as that found in electric guitar distortion pedals for example. Different

distortion algorithms, ranging from mellow to metal, can be selected

from the Type drop-down menu.

The Drive knob is a gain control used to adjust the level of the

signal at the input of the Distortion module and hence the amount of

saturation introduced in the signal. The color of the signal after the distortion algorithm has been

applied can be adjusted using the Tone knob. In its leftmost position, high frequencies will be

attenuated in the signal while in its rightmost position low frequencies will be ﬁltered out from the

signal. In its center position, the signal will be left unchanged. Note that this control can be set to

its middle position by clicking on the small LED above the knob. Finally, the Level knob is used to

control the amplitude of the signal at the output of the Distortion module.

4.10 The EQ module

The EQ module provides equalization over the low, mid, and high

frequency bands. This module is located after the Distortion module

in the signal chain and is composed of a low shelf ﬁlter, a bandpass

ﬁlter, and a high shelf ﬁlter in series.

The functioning of the low shelf ﬁlter is illustrated in Figure 17.

The ﬁlter applies a gain factor to frequency components located be-

low a cutoff frequency while leaving those above unchanged. The

cutoff frequency of the ﬁlter is adjusted using the Freq knob and the

gain amount is controlled with the Gain knob.

The high frequency content of the signal is controlled with a high shelf ﬁlter that works in

the opposite manner as the low shelf ﬁlter as illustrated in Figure 17. The ﬁlter will multiply a

gain factor to components located above a cutoff frequency while leaving those below unchanged.

Again use the Freq and Gain knobs to adjust the cutoff frequency and gain of the ﬁlter.

The mid frequency content of the signal is adjusted using a peak ﬁlter as illustrated in Fig-

ure 18. The ﬁlter applies a gain factor to frequency components in a band located around the cutoff

frequency of the ﬁlter. The cutoff frequency of the ﬁlter is adjusted with the Freq knob while the

gain coefﬁcient is varied with the Gain knob. In addition to these parameters, the width of the

frequency band can be adjusted with the Q knob.
