3.
Rotate the F1–F6 knobs to adjust the
sensitivity.
Play each open string with the maximum force you’d use in an
actual performance, and set the sensitivity such that the meter
registers a level just before reaching the maximum level.
* If the large segments at the right end of the level meter appear, it
means the level is set too high. Lower the sensitivity setting.
* Pressing [F1]–[F6] initializes each string’s value to 65.
* Depending on the bass you use, the level meter may move to the
maximum level even when the sensitivity is set to the minimum
setting. If this occurs, adjust the clearance separating the divided
pickup and the strings so the distance is slightly greater than
specified.
4.
Play the Low B through Hi C strings with the
normal amount of force; if any string sounds
particularly loud, lower the sensitivity setting
for that string, and keep adjusting until the
differences in the strings’ volume levels are
minimal.
