1. 0dB INPUT: The signal output from a
passive instrument may be connected to
this 1/4" input by means of a shielded
instrument cable.
2. –15dB INPUT: The signal output from
an active instrument may be connected
to this 1/4" input by means of a shielded
instrument cable.
3. MASTER: Use this to control the
output level of the instrument only. It
affects the speaker output [13] and
headphones output [9]. Use it wisely,
and turn it down when making
connections, putting on headphones,
or trying something new.
4. TREBLE: Use this to adjust the high
frequency level of the amplifier. This
provides up to 13 dB of boost, or
13 dB of cut at 6 kHz. The high
frequency output is flat at the center
position.
5. MID: Use this to adjust the mid
frequency level of the amplifier.
This provides up to 11 dB of boost, or
11 dB of cut at 600 Hz. The midrange
frequency output is flat at the center
position. Rotate the control counter
clockwise for a “contoured” sound
(more distant, less midrange output)
or clockwise for a sound which really
cuts through.
6. BASS: Use this to adjust the low
frequency level of the amplifier. This
provides up to 11 dB of boost, or
11 dB of cut at 50 Hz. The low
frequency output is flat at the center
position.
7. AUX LEVEL: Use this to control the
output level of the signal fed to the aux
input [8]. Use it wisely, and turn it down
when making connections, putting on
headphones, or trying something new.
8. AUX INPUT: The audio output from
line-level sources such as an iPod
®
,
MP3, or CD player, can connect to this
1/8" TRS stereo input. The incoming
audio is mixed with the preamp signals,
so you can play along to a practice
track, as you listen with headphones.
(The audio here appears in the cabinet
speakers until headphones are plugged
in; then it is in the headphones only).
9. PHONES: Use this 1/8" TRS stereo
output to connect headphones. The
output here is a mix of the line-level
signals reaching the amplifier, and any
incoming audio from the aux in jack [8].
Before putting on headphones, make
sure the master control [3] and aux level
[7] are turned down. This will reduce the
chance of hearing damage due to loud
volumes.
Note: the speaker is muted when
headphones are plugged in.
10. ON LED: This LED illuminates red when
the power is on.
11. POWER SWITCH: Use this switch to
turn the overall system power on or off.
Press the top of the switch to turn on
the power, and press the bottom of the
switch to turn it off.
