THE CROSS

USER-MODIFIED PREAMP STAGES

Try the following sequence to gain a			1
basic understanding of the Cross
functions. Keep in mind that all
switches may be added or omitted
in any combination -- there is no
"right way" to set them. Experi-
ment to find the sounds that work
for your specific application.
Keep in	mind	that your EQ	2
controls	(Bass,	Middle, Treble,

Presence) will play a powerful role in determining your overall tone, so be sure to adjust them accordingly.

For the tightest response possible,

don't forget about the TIGHT input3

– it maximizes the chunkiness of your guitar tone.

Bright

Press switch down toward center of Cross. Listen to the enhanced Highs and tighter Bass response.

Bright + Gain

Everything gets heavier with a good dose of Gain. Slide GAIN switch toward the center of the Cross to add distortion and more compression, similar to a traditional gain boost.

Bright + Tight

Turn off GAIN and slide TIGHT switch toward center of Cross to activate. This activates an additional tube stage, providing maximum amount of "chunk" and "cut" on the attack without compression, which is especially good for palm muting and fast articulate playing.
