17:MID: Use this control to adjust the midrange frequency level of the Clean channel.

18:HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high frequency level of the Clean channel.

The signal at these jacks is combined into a mono signal which is sent to the internal power amp circuit. Use the CD or tape player’s output level control to adjust the signal for the proper mix with your guitar.

The Save/Tap button is also used to save DSP presets and to restore the factory default DSP settings. Additional information about the Save/Tap button is on pages 7 and 8.

23:SAVE/TAP LED: This LED flashes in time with the tempo set by the Save/Tap button (#22), and serves as a status indicator for certain DSP activities (see page 8).

NOTE: For some of the DSP effects, the Save/Tap LED remains illuminated. The Save/Tap LED does not illuminate when the DSP knobs are set to the Bypass position.

24.REVERB: Use this control to adjust the amount of digital reverb effect. In its fully coun- terclockwise position the signal will be “dry” (without any reverb). As you rotate the control clockwise the amount of reverb increases.

25:POWER: Use this switch to turn the amplifier on (top of the switch depressed) and off (bottom of the switch depressed). The switch illuminates when the power is on.

NOTE: When the amplifier is turned on, the Save/Tap LED flashes for one second before the amplifier is operational.
