WARP FACTOR - MANUAL
ENGLISH
PURE DARK ENERGY
YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT.
The WARP FACTOR™ was designed specifically to
help you blast through creative barriers and super-
charge your powers of musical
expression. A specially designed
circuit puts at your disposal a
sonic force of awesome
dimensions. The perfect
powerhouse for pumping out
massive riffs, this amp's to-die-for
metal tone sounds as if forged with hammer and
anvil. Be prepared for overtones, sustain and
bottom end without end! Courtesy of its high-
current circuitry, the WARP FACTOR™ delivers the
in-your-face brand of sound pressure, transporting
the sound of drop D-tuned and seven-string gui-
tars to your audience and, given the right rig, into
the next county. Of course you need a wall wart
to do this. Only then will this little monster get the
juice it needs to shatter the dynamic barriers of
battery-operated devices. Words fail: Simply twist
your guitar's volume knob and vary the intensity of
your attack and you'll discover exactly what we
mean.
SETTING UP
Connect the WARP FACTOR™ between your guitar
and amp. This is strictly a front-end stomp box. It
wasn't designed to plug it into an FX loop and has
no business being there! Your best bet is to dial in
the cleanest sound you can get and turn your
amp up loud. After you have activated the
WARP FACTOR™, use the SUB switch to adjust its
bottom-end response to suit your setup.
KNOBS / SWITCHES
GAIN: Controls input sensitivity and determines the
degree or amount of distortion.
WARP: Shapes midrange frequencies. Set to the far
left position, it boosts low mids from 250 Hz to high
mids at 1 kHz. Set to the far right, it cuts mids at
500 hertz with a slight presence boost at 3 kHz.
LEVEL: Controls output level without
influencing tone.
SUB: Boosts the low end at 90 hertz. (The red ring is
no longer visible when activated.) This is the
resonance frequency of a truly evil-sounding
4 x 12" cab. Step on this when you want to put the
pedal to the metal.
! CAUTION !
all combos and speakers!
POWER UNIT: Be sure to use an original Hughes &
Kettner ® power unit only. Damage caused by the
use of another power unit invalidates the
