Activate Process			1	The Activate Process function switches the Tube Vitalizer´s
				sound processing section on or off. The illuminated switch indi-
				cates that the Vitalizer Process has been activated.

The Activate Process switch switches a relay hard-bypass circuitry for XLR and jack operation.

The Activate Process function is a relay-hard-bypass function that works on both XLR and jack connections. In the event of a power failure the Tube Vitalizer is automatically switched to hard- bypass (power failure safety). To increase the operational safety of the monitor loudspeakers you should not switch the Tube Vitalizer on or off at high monitor volume. At high amplitudes inside the filter, there may be residual charges on the switching contacts which may be discharged when you switch over. These may become apparent as audible click sounds. If applicable, reduce or mute the monitor loudspeakers before switching on or off.

Drive2 The Tube Vitalizer features a Drive control that enables you to set the level at which the Vitalizer filter network operates. The level can be changed between -20dB and +6dB.

Sets the operating level of the Vitalizer filter network.

To run the unit hotter set the level between the center position (0dB) and the clockwise position (+6dB). This will achieve proces- sing at a lower input sensitivity and will result in a more intensely processed sound. Conversely, in order to achieve milder proces- sing, set the level between the center position (0dB) and the counter clockwise position (-20dB).

Bass	3	The Bass control is responsible for the “colour”of the bass sound
		your signal is to have. If you move the Bass control to the right,
		you get a drier, percussive bass sound, known as Tight. As a result
		of this, on the right-hand side of the scaling points, there are
		squares which increase in size, in line with increased intensity.
