TURNING ON
To turn Megabeat One on, simply push the Power On/Off button (21) on
the front panel. After a few seconds, the following words will appear on the
display:
Don’t worry if after turning on, no message appears on the display. The
instrument is checking the hard disk and the Ram and this operation can last up to
a minute.
If after a minute no message appears on the display, turn the CONTRAST
knob clockwise in order to increase the contrast (or turn the knob anticlockwise to
decrease the contrast).
◆
“Disappearing” CONTRAST and VOLUME knobs
The CONTRAST and the VOLUME (13) knobs, are of the “disappearing”
type, i.e. they are usually hidden in the chassis of Megabeat One, in order to avoid
accidental changes of the volume or of the contrast.
To pull the CONTRAST knob out, simply push it.
After having adjusted the contrast, push it again to bring it back inside the
instrument.
