Loading the Reservoirs, Pourable Fluid

Avoid Air in the Syringe Barrel

Trapped air in the fluid creates voids that will make the fluid compressible. Although the LDS9000 Linear Drive System is stable enough to handle most compressible fluids excess air will force the user to use a greater amount of pullback. This will create a greater amount of forward and reverse motion in the syringe during a dispense cycle. Excess motion will put more stress on the fluid being dispensed. The goal is to reduce dispense motion as much as possible to protect the fluid and maximize repeatability. Paying attention to minimization during syringe filling will drastically improve performance.

For best results, use a Fishman barrel filing station (see next page). If needed, use a centrifuge or vacuum chamber to eliminate any trapped air.

Pourable Fluid

Twist on a tip cap and pour your fluid into the barrel using a funnel. Insert a Venting Ribbon along the inside edge of the barrel, followed by an AirFree™ piston. Carefully press down until it contacts the fluid. While holding the piston in place gently pull the Venting Ribbon from the barrel.

Thick or Non Leveling Fluid

If the fluid comes packed in a caulking cartridge try loading the reservoir with a caulking gun. If not, spoon-feeding with a spatula often works. Follow the loading by inserting the Venting Ribbon along the inside of the barrel, followed by AirFree™ piston. Carefully press down to move the fluid to the bottom of the barrel and to remove trapped air. While holding the piston in place gently pull the Venting Ribbon from the barrel.

This state-of-the-art system offers a range of features that enhance sound quality and control, making it a preferred choice for both live performances and studio recordings.

One of the standout features of the LDS9000 is its advanced under-saddle piezo pickup technology. This design minimizes feedback and maximizes tonal clarity, allowing for a more natural acoustic sound. The sensitivity of the piezo pickups captures the subtleties of each note, resulting in a rich, vibrant tone that resonates beautifully through amplifiers and PA systems.

The LDS9000 also incorporates a high-quality preamp, which amplifies the signal without introducing noise. This preamp offers a variety of controls, including volume, tone, and phase switch, giving players the ability to shape their sound in real-time. The phase switch is particularly valuable for live settings, as it helps eliminate feedback issues by reversing the phase of the signal.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Fishman LDS9000 is its ease of installation. The system is designed to be user-friendly, allowing guitarists to install it without extensive modifications to their instrument. This makes it an ideal choice for both amateur and professional musicians who want to upgrade their sound without sacrificing their guitar's integrity.
