4. SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS
➧
Connecting and starting-up:
Check to ensure that the mains voltage at your location corresponds to what is permit-
ted for operating the
Compact
mobile
. You will find the necessary information on the
rear side under
„Dest.“
(country of destination) and
„AC-voltage“
. Before switching the
amp on, the
„Master“
and
„Return“
controls should be turned to the
zero position
(as
far left as they will go) and
all other controls to middle position
. Then make all neces-
sary cable connections (mains, instrument and/or microphone). Now you can switch on
your
Compact
mobile
with the power switch on the rear of the amp. The green power
indicator shows that the amp is operational.
➧
Level control:
You can use the „
High/Low“
–switch and the „
Gain“
–control to adjust the various pick-
up systems and signal sources to
Compact
mobile
. The
„Clip“
–indicator shows that the
input signal is too high. You should then reduce the
„Gain“
–control or
„Volume“
–con-
trol on your guitar or other source to ensure distortion-free reproduction. Then set the
desired overall volume with the
„Master“
–control.
➧
Tone controls:
The
three and two band
tone controls of your
Compact
mobile
are designed to fulfil
the spe-cial requirements of acoustic instruments and the general demands of other
sources. The
„Colour“
–switch in
Channel 1
activates a „mid-cut treble-boost“ filter
which is particularly appropriate for fingerstyle techniques.
➧
Effects:
The
Compact
mobile
has an integrated (internal) digital effect permitting you to choo-
se be-tween a reverberation and a delay effect with the
„Select“
switch. The
„Return“
switch determines the intensity of the effect (as far to the left as possible means no
effect). Furthermore, a supplementary effect device can be connected (external effect).
For this purpose, use the sockets at the rear of
Compact
mobile
„Send“
and
„Return“
(send to the input, return from the output of the external effect). The intensity will then
be set by the external effect device.
Using the
„Effect-Pan“
control, you can mix continuously variable effect portions into
the channels. The following values hold for the corresponding definite positions:
turned completely to the left:
internal effect on channel 1
external effect on channel 2
middle position:
internal effect on channel 1 and channel 2
external effect on channel 1 and channel 2
turned completely to the right:
internal effect on channel 2
external effect on channel 1
A standard
double foot switch
can be connected to the „
Footswitch“
socket on the rear
of the amp with a stereo cable. This switch can be used to turn the internal and external
effects on and off.
