SA246 Aftershock Bass Distortion User’s Guide 15
Mono, Dry Thru: INPUT 1 goes to distortion circuit A and out to OUTPUT 1. A copy of the input is also sent
to OUTPUT 2. This is useful especially for bass guitars, where having a dry output is useful in maintaining a
solid low end (this can also be achieved using the Aftershock’s mix control or LoRetain feature, which
are accessible via the Neuro app and MIDI).
External Loop Pre-Effect: The external loop options allow an external effect (whether a Source Audio
product or a third-party product) to be connected to the Aftershock’s INPUT 2 and OUTPUT 2. When the
Aftershock is bypassed, the external effect will be out of the circuit. When the Aftershock is enabled, the
external effect will be put in series with the Aftershock’s distortion circuit. OUTPUT 2 should connect to
the external effect’s input, and the external effect’s output should connect to INPUT 2.
In Pre-Effect mode, the guitar signal will go to the external effect first, and then the Aftershock’s
distortion circuit second.
In Post-Effect mode, the guitar signal will go to the Aftershock’s distortion circuit first, and then to the
external effect second.
