The five-position rotary knob offers the following gain states:

I.    Low-gain mode with symmetric silicon soft clipping. Compressed and smooth.
II.   Low-gain mode with symmetric LED soft clipping. Pushed, open, and sparkly. 
III.  High-gain mode with symmetric silicon soft clipping. Increased saturation and tight.
IV.  High-gain mode with symmetric LED soft clipping. Saturated, punchy and big.
V.   High-gain mode with symmetric silicon hard clipping. Heavy compression, thick and chewy.

Think of each position as a different “flavor” of the pedal. Fine-tune each of these gain states with the dry knob for a near infinite supply of gain options.
