keggers Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 If you select pre amp only on hfx edit it automatically throws up cab and mic settings, are they just there as a matter of course and have no function or do they function, I thought that the idea of pre amp only was to take those details out of the equation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel_brown Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 You have to manually turn off the cab - even when using the Pre Amp only models. Then the mic settings doesn't do anything. Otherwise it will use a cab Impulse Response (IR) and that will change you're tone quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfsmith0 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I like to think of the Pre versions of the amps as just another color palette to choose from. Full amp or Preamp. Both with or without cab/mic. You can see freq responses and distortion levels here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
