FRONT PANEL FEATURES
Input Jack – Designed to accept a standard ¼ inch mono phone plug. For
best results use a high quality shielded cable to connect your instrument to
the amplifier. The input is buffered and will handle standard passive, high
level active, and piezo input signals.
Gain Control – Regulates the first gain stage of the preamplifier and
controls the amount of signal available to the system.
Input Pad – Pull the Gain control out to engage a –12dB pad on the input
stage. This is especially useful for high gain instruments. When engaged, the
indicator light to the left of the Input Gain control will be lit.
Set Level Indicator – This light helps the user set the appropriate amount of
gain. When set properly, the indicator should light on your loudest/lowest
notes. We’ll go over this in more detail later in the manual.
Enhance Control – Called the “Magic Knob” by some, this complex
control simultaneously boosts the very low bass, upper middle, and high
frequencies while putting a dip in the lower middle frequencies.
It is flat when set to its minimum level (fully counterclockwise).
Compressor Defeat – To defeat the Auto-Compression circuit, pull the
Enhance Control out.
Compressor Indicator Light – Indicates compression is taking place. This
indicator is directly above the Set Level indicator.
Tone Control Section
These controls allow you to boost or cut the tone at the desired frequency.
The spacing allows the controls to interact smoothly and musically. From
left to right, the controls and switches are:
Bass – This traditional shelving tone control provides 15 dB of boost or cut
at approx. 30Hz. The control is flat in the 12:00 position.
