1:INPUT: Connect your guitar here by means of a shielded instrument cable.

OVERDRIVE CHANNEL: A high gain channel designed to give you sounds from a slight edge to serious overdrive.

2:GAIN 1: Use this control to adjust the amount of moderate compression and distortion for the Overdrive channel. With the control rotated fully counter clockwise the sound will have a thick compressed quality. As you rotate the control clockwise the amount of distortion increases. Gain 1 produces less intense distortion than Gain 2 and is active when the Gain Select switch (#5) is in the out position.

3:GAIN 2: Use this control to adjust the amount of intense compression and distortion for the Overdrive channel. With the control rotated fully counter clockwise the sound will have a thick compressed quality. As you rotate the control clockwise the amount of distortion increases. Gain 2 produces more intense distortion than Gain 1 and is active when the Gain Select switch (#5) is depressed.

4:SHAPE: Working in conjunction with the Gain 2 control, rotate the Shape control until you find the sound you’re looking for. Rotating the control counter clockwise enhances the mid frequen- cies. Rotating the control clockwise enhances the low and high frequencies. (Only affects Gain 2 when active.)

5:GAIN SELECT: Use this switch to select Gain

1 (switch in the out position) or Gain 2 (switch depressed). A footswitch (#18) overrides this switch.

6:LOW: Use this control to adjust the low fre- quency output level of the Overdrive channel.

This control allows an adjustment range of 11dB at 80Hz.

7:HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high fre- quency output level of the Overdrive channel. This control allows an adjustment range of 10dB at 10kHz.

8:LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the output volume level of the Overdrive Channel. Use this control along with the Gain and Shape controls (#2, 3 & 4) to create a wide variety of sounds.

9:CHANNEL SELECT: Use this switch to select the Clean channel (switch in the out position) or the Overdrive channel (switch depressed). A footswitch (#21) overrides this switch. The adja- cent LEDs indicate which channel is selected.

CLEAN CHANNEL: A normal gain channel designed to give you crystal clear sounds.

10:LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the output volume level of the Clean Channel.

11:LOW: Use this control to adjust the low fre- quency output level of the Clean channel. This control allows an adjustment range of 22dB at 80Hz.

12:MID: Use this control to adjust the mid fre- quency output level of the Clean channel. This control allows an adjustment range of 14dB at 600Hz.

13:HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high fre- quency output level of the Clean channel. This control allows a range of 28dB at 10kHz.

14:REVERB LEVEL: Use this this control to adjust the amount of reverberation. With the control rotated fully counter clockwise the output signal is “dry” (no effect). As you rotate the con- trol clockwise the amount of effect increases.
