This Quick Start Guide will help you get started using your Ravish Sitar

immediately. For detailed information on all of the Ravish Sitar's features and

Setup

1. Using an unbalanced instrument cable, plug the output of your instrument

into the INPUT jack on the right side of the Ravish.

left side of the Ravish to the input jack of an amplifier.

3. Connect the included AC Adaptor to a wall outlet and plug its barrel

connector into the 9V power jack at the top of the Ravish.

4. Turn on the amplifier and turn up your instrument’s volume. Press the

BYPASS footswitch so that the STATUS LED is lit; the Ravish is now

activated.

the deep sonic capabilities of the Ravish. You may overwrite the factory

presets with your own sound creations whenever you like.

a value between 1 and 3 for a nice, slow modulation or 0 for no
