Jedes Band hat bis zu 15 dB Verstärkung oder Absenkung. Die Bandbreite reicht von 0,25 bis 2,5 Oktaven.
Tief - 40 bis 400 Hz
Mittel - 200 bis 2.000 Hz
Hoch - 1.000 bis 10.000 Hz

The Parametric Equalizer offers three bands of equalization with independent control of frequency, bandwidth, and level for each band.

Each band has up to 15 dB of boost or cut. The bandwidth ranges from 0.25 to 2.5 octaves. 
Low - 40 to 400 Hz
Mid - 200 to 2,000 Hz
High - 1,000 to 10,000 Hz

The Silver Deluxe is a JFET boost with a Fender tone stack EQ. The JFET topology adds some character to your signal, while the passive EQ delivers the familiar response found on many classic tube amps.

The EQ is an exact recreation of the Fender tone stack with Mids. It is also the same as the Alembic F2B.

The Silver Deluxe is designed to produce mild JFET overdrive when pushed. This is achievable with instrument level signals, and powering the pedal with a 9V supply. For a clean output, it is recommended to use a higher supply voltage.

Silver Deluxe

The Fliptop is a JFET preamplifier that is modeled after the B15 amplifier. The gain staging and EQ sections were carefully designed to give the feel and response of the vintage tube amp, offering a good range of pillowy tone that can be driven to the point of light overdrive if pushed.

 In addition to the James stack EQ and gain staging, the Fliptop adds a Master volume control on the output so you can dial in the amount of drive you want while adjusting the volume as needed.

 The Cab knob is essentially a wet/dry control, allowing you to apply 0 to 100% of the cab tone to the preamplifier output. Dialing in more of the cab response tightens the low end and cuts the high frequencies for a warm, vintage tone. The frequency response is modelled after the 15" cab.

FlipTop

The Synth Voice is an original analog octaver that has extraordinary tracking, huge headroom, and heavy-hitting synthesized tones. This Deluxe model improves upon the original by increasing sustain, as well as adding active filters to shape the tone of each voice.
The Synth Voice Deluxe detects your input signal frequency and generates a synthesized tone at the same fundamental frequency. The volume of this signal is controlled by the SYNTH knob. The synth signal is perfect for adding heft to your clean signal, or changing your clean signal to a completely different voice.
