About Trivium Ampknob bundle

###Ampknob Trivium Rhythm
This rhythm guitar monster offers a broad range of terrific tones and yet maintains a straightforward interface. The Boost switch goes between three distinctive flavors, from sparkly clean to face-melting high-gain, with crunch tones in the middle.
The Gain knob lets you fine-tune the distortion levels within each of the three Boost settings. The amp has been crafted with Matt and Corey’s ultra-precise riffing in mind and provides an extremely tight low end that never muddies up those fast chugs. The clean Boost setting features a tasty reverb, providing depth and support for calmer moments.
For further sonic options, the Ampknob Trivium Rhythm comes with two different cabinets.
### Trivium Bassknob
Paolo Gregoletto prefers a bright bass tone that lets string noise and snarl poke through the wall of guitars while still delivering an uncompromisingly solid low-frequency foundation for the songs.
The Bassknob Trivium has been designed to deliver just that. Use a bass with bright, clean bass strings and clear pickups, run it through the Bassknob Trivium plugin, and you’ll find yourself nailing Paolo’s signature tone in seconds. Is the amp too clean for you? Kick it into overdrive with the Drive button.
### Ampknob Trivium Lead
Tailored for blistering leads and soaring melody parts, the Ampknob Trivium Lead delivers a tonal character that makes your guitar solos sit right on top of the rhythm guitars.
But the Ampknob Trivium Lead is much more than just an amplifier model.
It also includes a chorus/doubler effect we call Chorey, and a delay — essential effects for great Trivium lead tones.
