On the right, the distortion channel: Crank up the gain (triangle wave) to go from subtle overdrive to roaring distortion. Dial in your tonal balance with the two band bass and treble EQ (shelving curves) Then adjust the level (triangle) and stomp the virtual true bypass switch to activate, with the red LED showing it’s on.

In the middle, the fuzz channel: Turn up the fuzz (square wave) to get more and more fuzztastic. Twist the tilt (split scoop shape) left for thunder, right for fizz. Leave the mid boost (hump shape) at zero for maximum muff, or go clockwise for added punch and snarl. Set the volume (triangle) and stomp as required, lighting the red LED.

Finally, on the left, the clean channel: Adjust the level (sine wave). Roll off the highs and mids with the tone knob (low pass filter). This footswitch works differently to the other two. If neither fuzz or distortion is on, stomping the clean FS just lights the LED and means that you’ll have this low pass filtered clean sound running in parallel when you click on either dirty sound. If either dirty sound is already on then clicking the clean channel will add the filtered clean to the dirt - or take it away if it was already active
