Frequently asked questions
LE LEAD PREAMP
Everything you need to know about the Preamp pedals.
There is simply too much to write here about what sets these apart from the others. If you want to go full nerd, you can in this article.
What is “Fusion Mode”?
Fusion mode allows you to stack the two difference channels of the Preamps. You can find more about it in this article.
What’s the difference between Channel A and B?
With two very distinct voicings, it’s like having two very different preamps in one unit. You can find more out about the channels in this article.
Is it 100% analog?
Apart from a couple of internal microcontrollers that are not within the audio path, the Preamps are 100% analog.
Can I change the built-in cab sim? Can I load IRs?
The speaker sim within the Preamps are analog and are hardwired in. There are no Virtual Cabinets or IRs within the unit.
