Restoring Settings - WARNING ALL AMP &
FOOTCONTROLLER SETTINGS WILL BE LOST
To restore the unit to factory settings (see handbook
rear cover) you must hold the Store switch (12) while
powering on the unit. The Clean/Crunch (3) and OD (5)
lights will light orange. You can then release the Store
switch (12).
Resetting the amplifier will erase all user Channel
presets and all user Footcontroller settings, replacing
them with the factory presets.
Channel Selection
The amplifier has 4 channels - Clean, Crunch, OD1 &
OD2.
Pressing the Clean/Crunch switch (3) selects between
the Clean (Green Light) and Crunch (Red Light)
channels.
Pressing the OD switch (5) selects between the OD1
(Green Light) and OD2 (Red Light) channels.
When moving from an OD channel to a Clean/Crunch
channel, the unit remembers the last channel you were
in before leaving. E.g. If you have moved from the
Crunch Channel to an OD channel and you press the
Clean/Crunch switch (3), the amplifier will revert back to
the Crunch channel - rather than starting again in the
Clean channel.
Modes
The amplifier operates in two modes - Preset and
Manual.
To change between these two modes, you must hold
the Tap switch (10) down for at least two seconds.
When in manual mode the Store switch (12) lights red
and the selected channel light (3 or 5) will start to flash.
The amplifier will remember the last mode it was in after
power off and revert to it the next time it is powered on.
Preset
This is the factory default operation of the amplifier.
In Preset mode the position of all controls except
Master Volume (13) are stored within each channel.
Each channel should be considered a preset.
Selecting a channel automatically recalls the settings
stored within the channel. Note: The physical position of
the front panel controls, except Master Volume (13)
which is not storable, will now not match the actual
settings of the amplifier. All front panel switches will
automatically update.
Altering a control will cause the associated parameter to
jump to the current physical position of that control.
When a control is altered the selected channel light (3
or 5) will start to flash indicating that the current preset
has been altered.
To store the updated settings, push the Store switch
(12).
If you select another channel without pressing Store
(12) then any altered settings will be lost as the new
channel and its settings are recalled.
Manual
In manual mode the amp’s settings always match the
physical positions of the controls.
Changing channel only changes the channel, NO
presets are recalled, NO other controls are altered.
Pressing Store (12) will store the current settings into
the selected channel. These can then be recalled when
using the unit in Preset mode.
When channel settings have been stored the current
channel light (3 or 5) will stop flashing indicating the
preset has been saved.
Reverb & FX
The amplifier provides two simultaneous effects,
Reverb and one of four FXs (Chorus, Phaser, Flanger
or Delay)
Reverb
The Reverb control (8) sets the amount of signal sent to
the reverb section - allowing the reverb to spill between
channels as different presets are recalled. When the
Reverb control (8) is set to ‘0’ the reverb is switched off,
the status of the reverb is also indicated on the optional
footcontroller.
FX
The FX control is split into four segments and selects
the type of FX and adjusts its associated settings.
When the FX control is set to ‘0’ the FX are switched
off, the status of the FX is also indicated on the optional
footcontroller.
Tap Tempo
The Tap Tempo switch (10) is used for the Delay effect
only.
The Tap Tempo switch matches the delay time to the
time between two presses.
The Tap Tempo LED flashes red at the
selected/recalled delay time.
The number of repeats is reduced as the delay time
decreases.
If you change from a channel with delay to one without
delay the effect will spill between channels.
If you change from a channel with delay to a channel
with delay set to a different delay time the delay effect
will not spill between channels.
MP3 / Line In
The 3.5mm MP3 / Line In socket (14) allows the
connection of an external audio source e.g. MP3 or CD
player.
Headphones
The 3.5mm Headphones socket (16) allows the
connection of a pair of headphones. When a jack is
inserted into the headphones socket the unit’s speaker
is muted.
Power
The Power switch (17) turns the amplifier on and off. If
current settings have not been stored they will be lost.
