The first thing we’ll show you is how to get your BassFX up and running. The following diagram shows you the most common method of hooking up your BassFX, but there are other ways of doing it. For example, you may decide to run the BassFX straight into your mixer or recording device instead of an amplifier (that’s what we had in mind when we created those great cabinet simulator effects). You may even want to go so far as to use the BassFX to add effects to keyboards or other electronic instruments.

Bass

Although you can experiment with different types of instruments, the BassFX performs best with a bass guitar, as it was made specifically to handle that instrument’s frequency range.

When you plug an adapter into the BassFX while batteries are in the unit, it will be powered by the adapter and not the batteries.

The BassFX’s Sub-Bass Synthesis and Octaver effects may damage some speakers if played at high levels. Please see the warning on page 18 regarding the use of these effects.
