8. Battery Level LED.

When activated by the switch (Item 7) the LED will illuminate when there is sufficient battery power to run the DRP-1.

Low battery levels will produce no light from the LED, whilst borderline power will produce only a dim output.

Rear Panel.

9. Input Jack.

Accepts the input from the guitar.

10. D.C. Input.

Accepts 9V DC power from a regulated power supply.

11. Pre-amp Out jack.

A buffered output suitable for feeding a ‘live’ guitar system such as a separate power amp and guitar speaker cabinet set-up.

12. Line Out Jack.

Provides the output from the ‘power amp/

loud speaker emulator’.This output should be used when wanting to directly record a full guitar amp simulation.

The Line Out socket would also be used to feed the input of your effects processor when using the DRP-1 for private practice through the headphone amplifier, or to feed the input of a normal guitar amp/ combo as an additional pre- amp.

13. Headphone Amp Input Jack.

A stereo jack accessing the input to the headphone amplifier which allows the insertion of effects processors between the headphone amp and the output of the emulator.

By connecting the left and the right outputs of the processor to this socket using a stereo jack to two mono jack Y lead, you can gain all the benefits of your favourite effects through the stereo headphones connected to socket 14.

14. Headphone Amp Output Jack.

A stereo 3.5 mm jack fed from the integrated headphone amp, which will suit stereo headphones from 32 to 600 Ohm impedance, for private practice.

To maximise the life of the battery, the headphone amp is only provided with power when the headphones are fully connected to the socket.

To prevent the switching transient being

passed onto other externally connected equipment, any channel faders etc. should be down when inserting the headphone jack.

Note!

Due to the widely varying nature of headphones, undesired clipping of the headphone amplifier may occur and will produce harsh distortion.

To control this simply reduce the line level until a satisfactory tone is achieved.

15. Battery Compartment (Located in

the base of the unit).

Finger removable cover gives easy access to the battery compartment for the 9V PP3 or equivalent type battery.

Note!

The power to the DRP-1 is controlled by the guitar input jack, therefore to preserve the battery life the guitar lead should be removed when the unit is not in use.

Using an external power supply will switch out the battery, but the DRP-1 is still turned on/off by the guitar input jack.

When unplugging the input jack, it is a wise precaution to turn down any mixer or recorder level controls to prevent any handling noise being passed onto external equipment.
