ATTENTION

Using too little preamplification will decrease the signal
to noise ratio. In addition, trigger sensitivity (see "Enve-
lope Generator (EG)", page 17)
as well as the envelope-
follower directly depend on the input level setting. Che-
cking for best possible levels is essential for best
results from your Retroverb Lancet.

DRIVE

This control adjusts the amount of distortion applied to the input signal.
Note that DRIVE will take effect on the processed as well as on the dry
signal. With MIX turned fully counterclockwise, the signal can still be
distorted if needed. The distortion can be disabled by switching BYPASS
on. In contrary to distortion achieved with the GAIN control, DRIVE will
not significantly raise the level when increasing the amount of drive.

Output Section (OUT)

The output section offers the following control elements:

MIX

This control adjusts the ratio between direct and processed signal. MIX
changes its function depending on the selected routing of the spring
within the signal chain (see "The Spring Reverb", page 9).

With SPRING set to OFF or PRE, MIX blends between the input section
including overdrive (left) and the signal processed with reverb, filter and
VCA (right).

With SPRING switched to POST, MIX blends between the reverberated
signal (left) and the signal processed by filter and VCA (right).
