Eleven : Using Eleven : Eleven Amp Controls : Master

Master
The Master control sets the output volume of the pre-amp, acting as a gain control for the power amplifier. In a standard master-volume guitar amp, as the Master volume is increased more power tube distortion is produced. The default setting is 5.0. Master range is from 0 to 10.
*
Some might assume a Master volume knob capable of silencing the amp completely. Not so. Use the Output knob (in the Master section) to silence the output of the plug-in. Use Master volume for tone and distortion.
