We’ve also included a new chamber reverb called Detroit, perfect for adding rich vintage-sounding ambiance’to your tracks.
• The module lock feature allows users to retain any changes they have made to a specific module, holding those knobs in place when loading new artist presets. This feature is helpful when you’ve dialed in the ControlHub modules to suit your track however, if you want to audition some other tonal options from other artist packs, simply lock the module using the lock icon and you’re free to browse without using your work.
• The Volume Link in the color module links the drive control and the volume input allowing you can increase the drive and the volume knob will decrease for more level gain staging.
