CONTROLS: (Continued)
As Channel 1’s MIDDLE Control is swept past 1:00, it quickly starts to add gain in these midrange frequencies adding cut and punch. As the top end of the control is reached, ( 3:00 - 5:00 ) it becomes an additional gain control capable of taking both CLEAN and PUSHED modes to extremes. Experiment with this cranked region in conjunction with conservative settings of the other tone controls to balance both sound and feel. While this added fl exibility may make Channel 1’s MIDDLE Control a little more tricky to learn at fi rst, it will become quite valuable as you start to realize the power of this super versatile channel.
BASS: Last, but not least in the string of tone controls we come to the BASS .This control works similarly in both channels in that it determines the amount of low frequencies present in a sound. However, the actual frequencies and style of lows it mixes in changes from channel to channel. Like the MIDDLE Control, it falls in line
When the TREBLE Control is set high, the effectiveness of the BASS and MIDDLE Controls is reduced. If the TREBLE Control is set low these two controls become dominant.
BASS MID
For the most balanced sound and a balance of power between the three rotary tone controls, try to use the
TREBLE Control in its middle ranges.This scenario produces nearly equal representation of all the frequen- cies on the tone controls and provides a great neutral starting point for further tweaking.
HEAD VERSION
PRESENCE: The PRESENCE Control is a high frequency attentuator that is placed at the end of each channels
fi nd the PRESENCE Control in its lower regions, where a balanced, vocal response is achieved.
