Atomic 50-112 - Manual (Page 4)

4
The Atomic Reactor is a full range system, its special loudspeakers can handle
frequencies up to 18 KHz, which is the same as a normal PA system. You can switch
the output m ode from „S tudio/D irect“, „D irect M ode“, „R ecording O u t“ or „D irect
O ut“, so that the righ t speaker, box and m icrophone m odels are activated.
The output signal of the Modelers can be sent direct to a Mixer via the Send Jacks
(left/right) on the rear side of the Atomic Amps, for an absolute professional PA or
Recording sound.
Turning On and Off
Like most Tube Amps, the Atomic Amps have a Stand-By switch. It's important to
use this switch. This means; first use the Red Power switch to turn the Atomic
Reactor on at the mains, wait 30 seconds and then use the Stand-By switch to be
ready to play. When turning the Amplifier off, start with the Stand-By switch and
then turn the Power switch off. It's important to use this sequence for turning on
and off.
Special information for owners of Line6 POD or POD xt, Behringer V-Amp,
VOX ToneLab and M-Audio Black Box
For these so called „D esktop M odelers“ w e have special frame templates and power
cords. You should have received the right Template-Kit for your modeler. This Kit,
together with the Docking Station DS-1 and your Desktop Modeler will form a
complete unit. The power and audio connections follow internally; Floorboards, Midi-
Pedals, USB-Tools can also be connected to the rear side of the Amp.
The DS-1
A tom ics’ philosophy is to afford it’s customers the opportunity to choose the brand
of modeler or preamp that they prefer, and thus enjoy the sonic characteristics that
they demand. The DS- 1 allows Atomic Reactor Series amplifiers to act as a
platform for select digital amp modelers and other types of related equipment.
When using a modeler installed in the DS-1, all of the signal input and output as
well as the power supply connections are made. No wall socket or external power is
required, the Reactor automatically selects and sends the correct power / voltage to
the modeler loaded into the DS-1. Installation and de-installation requires no tools.
The DS-1 is then loaded into the Reactor 50 112/212. The DS-1 design gives the
user the ability to “quick sw ap” (you don’t have to turn the R eactor on or off and
wait for the tubes to come up to speed) the Dock into and out of the Reactor. With
the “quick sw appable” capability designed into the DS-1 you can quickly change
Dock/modeler combination.
