ALIGN SERIES REVERB USER’S GUIDE
INTRODUCTION The Align Reverb was built from the ground up to complement the natural body dynamics and warmth of acoustic instruments that we love so much. The circuit seamlessly integrates the wet and dry signals with the effect in side chain so that it never overwhelms the original signal. We shaped the reverb with analog EQ to reflect the natural voice inherent in acoustic instruments. Additionally, the tone control adds versatility by sweeping from warm and muted to open and present.
G A F B E C D TOP FEATURES A. TONE This is a simple control to help you alter the tone of the reverb itself. It will not affect the tone of your instrument, only the tone of the reverb. Turn the control clockwise for a present, reflective sound or counterclockwise for dark, subdued tones.
B. INSTRUMENT INPUT The ¼” input is an unbalanced (mono), all-discrete input. Plugging into the input will activate the Reverb, therefore, unplugging will turn the system off. C. DECAY The decay control adjusts the length of the reverb tail. Start with the control counterclockwise and you’ll hear a subtle reflection of your acoustic instrument. Turn it clockwise and you’ll find yourself playing in an expansive, open space. Adjust to taste. D. ENGAGE Press the footswitch to engage the effects.
G. VOLUME The master volume will help you find a balance between your engaged and bypassed signal. It is only active when the engage light is on. Keep in mind that the level of the reverb control can affect this balance, so you may need to adjust the volume as you adjust the effect. A SIDE FEATURES A. DC INPUT The DC power input is designed for a standard 2mm plug commonly used with effects pedals and “floorbox” products.
