About the EBS Reidmar 750 Bass Head!
The EBS Reidmar 750 provides a full bodied,
warm and transparent tone throughout
the entire range. It is equipped with EBS
renowned built in compressor, professional
balanced XLR-output, Character filter and an
efficient 4-Band EQ and a Drive that lets you
master the sound.
The EBS Reidmar 750 handles a 4 Ohm load.
Due to its power rating (700W RMS), using
mini-size cabinets calls for very careful use of
the master Volume. It is strongly recommended
to use Reidmar 750 with a 4 ohm cabinet that
matches the power output of the amp.
The Reidmar amp is designed and developed
in the heart of Sweden by EBS.
GETTING STARTED...
1. Carefully unpack the bass head.
2. Check that all knobs are set fully counter
clockwise besides the EQ controls marked
BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE which should be
set to mid position. Make also sure all push
switches are set to their outer positions. Now
the EBS Reidmar 750s settings are "zeroed"
and ready to be personalized.
3. Connect one or more speaker cabinets
to the speaker output. Make sure the total
impedance is not below 4 ohms.
4. Turn on the POWER switch.
5. Plug in your bass. While plucking the
strings as hard as you would during your
hardest playing, gradually increase the
GAIN knob unit the peak LED starts to flash
at peaks.
6. Move over to the VOLUME knob and
adjust for the desired output volume.
BUILDING THE SOUND...
7. The first tonal shaping circuitry is the
Character Filter next to the GAIN control.
This filters provides a preshape EQ prior of
further fine tuning of your sound.
8. Enable the filters by pressing the Filter
Active pushbutton and explore the filter
section. Play your bass. Note that there
isn't any difference in sound yet.
9. The filters are basically of the boost/cut
design. This means that the level controls
marked with + and -signs, either boost or
cuts the selected frequency band. Further,
the MIDDLE section has got a frequency
control for precise adjustment of the midrange.
10. Gradually increase or decrease the level
and vary the frequency of the middle filter
when operating the middle filter. Notice how
the sound is effected. An A/B comparison can
be made by toggling the filter active switch.
11. Proceed to the COMP/LIMIT knob. This
control adjusts the compression and is useful
when playing very dynamic or loud.
12. Turn up the COMP/LIMIT knob to mid
and max position. Notice how the peaks in
volume will straighten out as you play harder
and harder.
13. Now, go on to the BRIGHT and turn it
half way up. Play your bass. The BRIGHT
filter is a high pass filter which works on
the highest fre quencies of the bass to give
enhanced ambiance and presence.
14. Proceed to the DRIVE control and increase
this setting gradually until desired level of over
driven sound is reached.
This was a brief introduction and as you go
on further in this manual, you will learn how
to use and utilize all of the useful features
that the EBS Reidmar offers you.
