Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FRONT PANEL CONTROLS - continued CHANNEL 2 SWITCH: Press in to activate Channel 2, the led will illuminate when active. Channel 2 is designed to be completely flexible giving punchy cleans, smooth blues and hard rock tones. This switch is footswitchable and midi controllable, for more information on midi see the midi section later in the manual. DRIVE: Sets the level of tube preamplifier gain or how dirty your sound is for the drive channel - Channel 2.
Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FRONT PANEL CONTROLS - continued MASTER: Sets the overall ‘loudness’ of channel 3. It is useful to experiment with the gain and volume controls. If you want a very open, warm and semi overdriven sound try reducing the amount of drive (15) and increasing the master. BRIGHT: Adds edge and picking emphasise to you sound. This control has more effect at lower drive (10) settings.
Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FRONT PANEL CONTROLS - continued factor in order to get the bass response you’re looking for. It is normal for this control to make a slicking sound when operated. MUTE: This mutes the output section of the amplifier and the line out socket. It does not affect the signal path through the pre-amplifier, so sends to the fx loops and record out are maintained allowing signal levels to be monitored silently and allow silent recording via the record out.

Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS REAR PANEL CONTROLS - CONTINUED EXTENSION LOUDSPEAKER: This single ¼” (6.3mm) jack socket can be used to connect an 8-16 ohm extension cabinet. When an extension cabinet is used the switch (36) should be moved to the on position. Failing to do so will result in masmatched impedance and will reduce the amplifiers performance and in some cases may cause damage to the amplifier. Remember to switch back to the off position when not using an extension cabinet.
