Headrush Volume & Dynamics
Feedback
Inspired by HeadRush® Original
Effect that simulates the natural feedback of the amplifier without having to stand in front of the speaker
GENERAL FUNCTION
Generate a controlled and in tune feedback
Can be:
- natural (unity)
- harmonic (4th/5th/octave)
Ideal for:
- infinite sustain
- expressive leads
- rock/ambient effects
Control Parameters
Volume%
- Range: 0 – 100%
- Feedback volume
Effect:
- bass → light sustain
- medium → natural
- high → dominant
Mix%
Blend between original signal and feedback
Behavior
- 0%: dry
- 40–60%: natural
- 70–100%: dominant feedback
RangeHz
Frequencies on which the feedback is activated
Effect:
- low → low frequencies
- medium → lead zone
- high → sharp feedback
Very important for control
Attackms
Activation time
- low: immediate
- medium: natural
- high: slow fade-in
Releasems
Decay time
- low: fast stop
- medium: natural
- high: long sustain
Pro Tips
- High volume → can dominate
- High mix → less control
- Wrong range → “strange” feedback
- Attack too fast → artificial
Realistic Setup:
- Medium attack
- Medium release
- Moderate mix
Trick:
- use Range to “tune” the feedback
