GTD120/212 Guitar Amplifier w/DSP and Channel Tracking

Introduction

Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of the Crate GTD120/212 three-channel guitar amplifier with advanced digital signal processing (DSP) and Channel Tracking. This rugged amplifier combines outstanding features with serious clean and distorted sounds. Digital Reverb, Chorus, and Delay provide you with a wide variety of sounds. Crate’s unique Channel Tracking feature automatically stores your DSP settings for each channel to memory. As you switch from one channel to another, the DSP settings for the selected channel are instantly recalled. The supplied three-button footswitch allows you to select channels and change the DSP bank (Bank A/Bank B) by “remote control.” A front panel 1/8" stereo CD input jack allows you to play along with your CD player, MP3 player, or iPod. A rear panel insert jack allows you to add even more effects by connecting an external effect processor.

Like all Crate products, your GTD amplifier is designed by musicians and built using only the best components. Extensive testing confirms that this amplifier is the absolute best it can be.

In order to get the most out of your new amplifier, we strongly urge you to read this manual before you begin playing.

And thank you for choosing Crate.
