DF-2

Compared with the DS-1 Distortion, the DF-2 offers higher gain and a smoother attack character. Its secret weapon is the feedbacker function, which lets you introduce the sustained harmonic feedback of a cranked guitar amp with on/off commands. Using automation and MIDI control assignments in your DAW, it’s easy to punctuate guitars and other sounds with this expressive effect at dramatic points in performances.

Parameter

Value

Explanation

1

LEVEL

0–100

Corrects the difference in volume when you switch between normal and effect.

TONE

0–100

Adjusts the tone.

Turn the knob clockwise to emphasize the high frequencies for a more biting sound.
Turn the knob counterclockwise to cut the high frequencies and boost the low frequencies for a softer sound.

DIST

0–100

Adjusts the distortion depth.

2

OVERTONE

0–100

Adjusts the harmonic component of the feedback sound (the sound that’s one octave higher).
Turning the knob clockwise emphasizes the sound an octave higher, and turning the knob all the way leaves only the sound an octave higher.
