Getting Started

Knob Settings

To set up your Bronco™ 40 amplifier:

1.Plug the supplied power cord into a grounded outlet.

2.Plug your guitar into the INPUT jack.

3.Press the POWER switch to the "ON" position.

4.Adjust the MASTER volume level.

MASTER volume is the only knob you need to adjust at first because the settings of all the other knobs are pre- programmed into each PRESET.

Selecting Presets

Use the PRESET knob to select one of 24 presets. Presets are stored in three banks, colored AMBER, GREEN and RED, in the following order:

Each preset is based on one of the eight amplifier types labeled next to each of the preset LEDs.

Each preset stores the settings for:

Amplifier type — 8 selections

Effects — 4 categories, 12 selections total

Compression — 4 ranges, 12 selections total

Knob levels — GAIN through TREBLE (not MASTER)

The MASTER volume knob is always "active." That means the position of the MASTER volume knob always shows the true master volume setting, unlike the programmable knobs.

(Always turn the MASTER volume knob first to adjust the overall volume output of your Bronco 40 amplifier.)

Programmable Knobs

Because the setting of every knob (except MASTER) is part of each preset, these "programmable" knobs are inactive and knob positions will NOT show their actual settings when a preset is first selected by turning the PRESET knob.

PROGRAMMABLE knobs are inactive unless turned

How do I activate a programmable knob? The moment you turn any programmable knob it instantly becomes active and it will remain active until you select a different preset, at which time all programmable knobs become inactive again.

Turn a PROGRAMMABLE knob to activate it

Effects & Compression

Use the FX knob to select effects and the COMP knob to select levels of signal compression.

The FX and COMP knobs share the same three indicator LEDs. The knob that is being turned, or has been turned most recent- ly, has control of these LEDs.
