The EVD6 Pickup Position Section

Pickup placement has a great effect on the character of the sound it picks up and outputs. For example, the closer a pickup is to an instrument’s bridge, the brighter the sound of the strings will be at that position compared to the sound farther away from the bridge, and therefore the brighter the pickup’s output will be. EVD6 lets you precisely position both ends of both of its pickups anywhere across the virtual strings. Figure 13.11 shows the Pickup Position section.

To move a pickup, you can click and drag either end of a pickup to move that end while the other end stays in its original position, you can click and drag on the number that corresponds to the particular pickup end you wish to move (the numbers to the left correspond to the pickup positions near the top of the Pickup Position section for their respective pickups), or you can click and drag in the center of a pickup to move an entire pickup across the strings, with each end of the pickup occupying the same numerical position across the respective ranges.
