Congratulations on your purchase of the all new
ExpressTM
112
TransTubeTM
Series. This amp
represents years of research on vacuum tube emulation, resulting in a totally new Express. The
preamp has been redesigned, using patent-applied for technology that redefines tubelike distortion
and harmonic generation in solid-state amps.
The new
T.
Dynamics circuitry, also awaiting several patents, creates the long sought for tube power
compression phenomenon. This, when combined with the preamp circuitry, yields the closest tube
amp simulation to date. The compression effect is increased by turning the
T.
Dynamics control
down, which lowers the power level the amp puts out.
To further enhance the performance of the Express, an added external speaker jack is included. The
speaker has been upgraded to a Sheffield, and an effects loop is included to allow for greater flex-
ibility.
-INPUTS

I I I
HIGH GAIN INPUT
(1)
Used for most electric guitars. It is 6
dB
louder than Low Gain input.
LOW GAIN INPUT
(2)
Provided for instruments that have extremely high outputs, which can result in overdriving (distorting) the High
Gain input. If both inputs are used simultaneously, the output levels are the same (both are Low Gain).
VOLUME (3)
Controls the volume level of the Clean channel.
BRIGHT SWITCH
(4)
Provides a preset boost
(6
dB)
to treble frequencies. To activate, depress the switch to its “in” position.
CHANNEL SELECT SWITCH
(5)
Allows selection of the Lead or Clean channel. The “in” position of the switch selects the Lead channel and the
“out” position selects Clean.
NOTE: Channel selection may also be achieved by the remote footswitch. If remote selection is desired, the
channel switch must be in the “in” (Lead) position.
LOW, MID,
&
HIGH EQ (6)
Passive tone controls that regulate the low, mid, and high frequencies, respectively.
PRE GAIN
(7)
Controls the input volume level of the Lead channel.
THRASH SWITCH
(8)
Notches the mid range about
20
dB.
