The D.I. output is used to connect your unit to P.A. systems and
recording consoles. This is adjustable from microphone level to a high
line level signal. The level control sets the amount of signal level that
appears at the output of the XLR connector. The ground lift is used to
reduce noise when plugging into another system. Switch the ground lift
back and forth to determine the lowest noise/hum position. This is a fully
balanced line output. Pin 2 is + or hot.
SETTING UP YOUR OWN SOUND
Start by setting the pre-amplifier tone controls to the flat position. Set the
enhance control to minimum. Set the master volume control to 0. Set all
the tone controls to 0. Plug in your bass and turn on your unit. Set the
gain control to around 10:00 and move the master up to around 11:00,
or to a comfortable listening level.
Try the enhance control first, rotate it while playing, and you may find
that this gives you the sound you are looking for.
Next, try the main 3-band tone control. Start with the treble control, work
down to the midrange control, and then adjust the bass control. Be
careful about using large boosts, particularly in the bass range. This can
cause increased distortion at loud playing levels and can limit overall
output level if carried to extremes.
To sum things up, you will always have the best results creating a great
bass tone around the natural tone of your instrument. Use the minimum
amount of EQ required to get your sound.
SPEAKER ENCLOSURES
All speaker enclosures have a passive tweeter protector in the crossover
to protect the tweeter from heavy clipping or unusually large input
signals. This protector bulb will light up if it is engaged. It is located in
the speaker box and is attached to the crossover. To service this part,
should it ever become necessary, the grill must be removed along with
the speaker closest to the crossover.
