Volume
This adjusts the input sensitivity. Use low settings for maximum clean headroom and higher settings
when you want to introduce more natural valve overdrive to your tone.
Balancing your input Volume level with your master volume level is crucial in delivering the tone and
feel that works best for you.
Voice I/II switch
Switched the Voice I, the V40 has a relatively flat response for an American Style sound. Switching to
Voice II adds more upper mid-range frequencies into the mix for a more traditional British Style sound.
Treble
Controls the high frequency content of your sound and is also a powerful tone shaper when it comes to
overdrive character.
Middle
Controls the midrange frequencies in your sound. Run the middle control higher to help cut through a
band mix, or generally fatten and ‘widen’ your sound. Run it lower for a lighter, less ‘in-your-face’ kind
of sound.
Mid Kick switch
When switched ON, (downwards), this will add more mid-range frequencies while boosting them at the
same time, allowing the Middle Knob to have a wider sweep and range of frequencies to control.
Bass
The Bass controls the low frequency content of your sound. Higher levels of bass can be good at low
volumes, but take care when running the amp louder – you may find you need to reduce the bass
control. As with all the EQ pots, adjust to taste!
Reverb
The V40 has a built-in Digital Reverb and this control varies the amount of Reverb added to the guitar
signal.
Reverb ON/OFF switch
The Digital Reverb can be switched ON/OFF using this toggle.
