(1)INPUT (HIGH GAIN)
This 1/4" mono jack is designed to accommodate most any guitar output signal. Input signal gain can be adjusted by the PRE GAIN (7) control (Lead channel only).
(2)INPUT (LOW GAIN) *212 Only
This 1/4" mono jack is designed to accommodate instruments with extremely high outputs that might overdrive the high gain input. It is
(3)VOLUME
This control sets the overall level of the Clean channel.
(4)MODERN / VINTAGE SWITCH
This switch selects the voicing of the Clean channel. The MODERN position reflects the tones of current amplifier design. The VINTAGE position changes the EQ and adds brightness to simulate classic amp design.
(5)CLEAN CHANNEL EQ
These passive controls allow adjustment of LOW, MID, and HIGH frequencies. The tonal changes produced by these controls will vary depending on the position of the MODERN / VINTAGE SWITCH (4). The “0” position is maximum cut; the “10” position is maximum boost.
(6)ACTIVE CHANNEL LEDs
These indicators signify the active channel. Green indicates Clean channel activation; red indicates Lead channel activation.
(7)PRE GAIN
This control adjusts the input gain of the Lead channel. Increasing input gain will increase preamp distortion and sustain.
(8)MODERN / VINTAGE / HIGH GAIN SWITCH
This switch selects both the gain and voicing of the Lead channel. The MODERN position increases gain and notches (cuts) mid frequencies to establish a “hard rock/metal” tone. The VINTAGE position replicates overdriven classic tube amps, while the HIGH GAIN setting increases gain and changes the EQ to allow leads/solos to “cut through.”
