Click the button to switch the Input signal source to Mic (rear panel XLR) or Line (rear panel jack) input.
Note that Line level signals are NOT routed through the Liquid Pre-amp DSP circuit.
Click on the
ø button to reverse the phase of the input signal.
Harmonics
Rotate this knob clockwise to add desirable harmonic distortion to the signal - often perceived as adding
‘warmth’. The Harmonics control allows you to add this type of distortion and emulate the subtle variations
between analogue devices - sometimes two units of the same type can have different amounts of harmonic
distortion. This allows you to create an ‘overdriven’ sound without having to overdrive the pre-amp.
The exact amount of second, third and fifth order harmonics depends both on the type of pre-amp chosen
and the amount of mic pre gain. This is because the amount of each harmonic, with respect to each other,
is different for pre-amps with valves compared to those with transistors; and also because the balance of
harmonics changes with level.
The result is that a higher gain at the mic pre stage will produce a greater, and hence more noticeable,
effect as the harmonics setting is increased.
Pre-amps 3 to 8 Input Signal Source Select
Select the input source for inputs 3-8 by clicking on the corresponding buttons. Inputs 3 & 4 can be set
to Mic, Line or Instrument level. Inputs 5 - 8 can be set to Mic or Line level.
