From reading the ad copy, it appears to me that the term "Warp," as used therein, means to combine two or more amp models to get a sort of "hybrid" amp, or something like that. Here's the text I'm referring to:

Now use the Warp knob to create HyperModels, which are hybrids formed by recombining frequency spectra from the first two positions. It's a revolutionary way to create completely new and usable guitar tones. Now run the result through 24 controllable effects, eight at a time. S/PDIF digital output, 24-bit A/D-D/A converters, 48 user/48 factory presets, full MIDI, optional remote control pedal input, PC/Mac editor/librarian software included.
