Gain is how much something gets amplified.
Reverb is like an echo. It’s an additional copy bounced off of something.
Delay is exactly what it sounds like. It’s the same signal, but later.
Distortion means the output waveform is a different shape than the input. There are many different kinds of distortion.
On an amplifier, tone control lets you make different frequencies louder or quieter.
