Controls
1. Input
Plug your guitar in here. Always use a good quality screened guitar lead.
2. Boost
The Boost knob controls the amount of gain boost that is applied to the guitar
signal. At low levels, a boosted clean sound will be achieved and your amp will
sound more dynamic and full. As the Boost control is increased the amplifier will
start to overdrive and the resulting distortion will be rich in valve harmonics and
compression.
3. Low
The tone circuit on the DEPT. 10 BOOST is known as a ‘cut and boost’ circuit.
As the name suggests this allows a range of frequencies to be reduced (i.e. cut)
or increased (i.e. boosted). Turn the control below the centre position to cut the
amount of bass, or past the centre position to boost the bass. Importantly, when
the control is set to 12 o’clock the amount of bass is neither cut nor boosted.
4. High
Similarly, the High control adjusts the amount of cut or boost that will be applied to the
treble, or high, frequencies of your tone. Turn the control below the centre position to
cut the amount of treble, or past the centre position to increase the amount of treble.
Importantly, when the control is set to 12 o’clock’ the amount of treble is neither cut
nor boosted.
5. Output
This output is designed for connection to the input of other pedals or the input of a
valve solid state, digital or hybrid amplifier. The built-in buffer/line driver is perfect for
preserving your tone when using long cables, or large pedalboards, even driving low
impedance pedals like many wah-wahs.
Always use a good quality screened guitar lead.
6.
Valve Guard
Through this guard you can see the ECC83 valve at the heart of your pedal.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to remove the fixing screws or guard. No user serviceable
parts inside.
7. On/Off LED
When the LED is on the pedal is on. When the LED is not on the pedal is off.
8. On/Off Switch
Press this switch to turn the effect on or off.
9. DC Inlet
For the input of the 9V DC / 500mA adaptor supplied.
Only use the included power supply.
