This button lets you bypass the entire Recording Chain section. Use then
your own mic‘d cabinet or external IR loader.

Input Gain
If you want to drive the input of the Friedman preamp harder or softer you
may adjust the input gain to your liking. Some single coil pickups from
older or vintage guitars may deliver low level output that can be compen-
sated with the Input Gain.
The opposite goes for a lot of heavy metal style humbuckers. If you have
recorded the DI signal too hot or if you are using other Plugins before
entering the Friedman amp Plugin you may want to dim the input signal.
With most standard guitars you can and should leave the Input Gain at 0
(zero) though.
4
Bypass Pre Amp
Bypass the pre amp section.
With the Bypass Pre switch you can switch off the Friedman preamp
completely, which may be wanted if you record your own hardware (tube
or solid state) guitar pre- amp with the Buxom Betty. In this case you
may still use the internal Power Amp and speaker / Recording Chains
simulation and will be able to achieve amazing results recording your
guitar sounds without using an external Power Amp and speaker.
Switch up: Preamp is bypassed (off), Switch down: Preamp is active (on).
5
Bypass Power Amp
If you want to use only the distortion of the Friedman preamp you may
switch the power amp simulation off. This may sound cool if you use the
Buxom Betty plugin to distort other signals than a guitar. For a realistic
guitar recording we recommend leaving the power amp on, as it is an
integral part of the overall sound of the amp.

Power Soak
Controls the output volume.
In the Hardware world power soaks are being used to reduce the volume
