Basic Spring Reverb Setup
1. Connect the output plug from the AC Adapter into the 9V jack at the top of the
Cathedral. Plug the AC Adapter into a wall outlet.
2. Plug your instrument into the MONO/Left Input Jack.
3. Plug MONO/Left Output Jack into the input of your amp.
4. Press the BYPASS footswitch so the STATUS LED is on
5. Turn the MODE knob so that the top LED, GRAIL SPRING is lit.
6. Turn the following knobs to 50% or 12 o’clock: BLEND, REVERB TIME and
DAMPING/TONE.
7. Turn the FEEDBACK and PRE-DELAY knobs down to fully counter-clockwise.
8. This will give you a basic spring reverb sound.
9. Turn the BLEND knob to obtain your ideal reverb/dry signal mix.
Changing the tone of the reverb
10. Now that you have your basic Spring reverb sound setup, turn the
DAMPING/TONE knob up or down.
11. As you turn the TONE knob up (clockwise), the sound of the reverb will get
brighter. As you turn the TONE knob down (counter-clockwise) the sound of the
reverb will get darker. This is true for every reverb mode and even the ECHO
mode.
Changing the reverb time
12. Return the DAMPING/TONE knob to the 12 o’clock position.
13. Turn the REVERB TIME knob clockwise past the 12 o’clock position. As you turn
it further up the reverb time gets longer and longer.
14. When you turn the REVERB TIME knob clockwise as far as it will go, the reverb
time will be infinite, meaning the reverb will not decay.
15. Now try turning the REVERB TIME knob down below 12 o’clock. This will yield
much shorter reverb times.
Basic Hall Reverb Setup and Pre-Delay Use
1. Use the same connections as in the steps above.
2. Turn the MODE knob so that the HALL LED is lit.
3. Set BLEND and REVERB TIME to 12 o’clock.
4. Set the DAMPING/TONE knob to the full clockwise position.
5. Turn the FEEDBACK and PRE-DELAY knobs down to fully counter-clockwise.
6. A basic HALL sound is now ready for use.
7. Adjust the BLEND control for your ideal wet/dry mix.
