NAD - Monomyth Skeleton Key rev 2B Dreadful Run

  • Thread starter Thread starter travis bickle

I don't know how the Halloween version maps the switch names but it should be the same functions as the standard...

Voicing Map:
  • Fire. 3 way bright cap for gain flexibility
  • Tight. 2 way focus control for lower gain flexibility and detuned tones
  • UFO. 2 way compression style
  • Blood. 2 way gain frequency control
  • Storm. 3 way power amp response
  • High and Low Inputs: The Low Input delivers the core tones and the High Input adds a transparent gain stage on top without the need for boost pedals.

But to my ears...

Fire = Treble voicing switch, I use the middle as it feels most "vintage Plexi" to me

Tight = Cuts the low end, super helpful for cleaner tones (but can't say I do that much lol)

UFO = Diode compression, I forget which direction I use but it's the "louder" one which is no diodes I think (or maybe just "less")

Blood = Gain boost, I actually use it off most of the time but do flick it on from time to time

Storm = Most confusing to me but basically makes the low end louder without changing gain? I don't know but I use it in the middle with my tele and the other two settings with humbuckers

Input: I like the Low one the best but mostly because I use my SK for mid-gain
 


Start around 1:21:53 - they eventually get to describing each switch. I admit to breaking out a notepad - haha. Enjoy!


Thanks… yeah. About 20 minutes of rambling and sidetracking before we get all the info. lol

But pretty much they describe them about what I figured they were supposed to do.
