NANO BATTALION
BASS OVERDRIVE
Congratulations on your purchase of the Electro-Harmonix Nano
Battalion. The all-analog circuitry of the Nano Battalion provides you
with an amazing variety of bass tones in a sturdy and compact pedal. At
the core of the Nano Battalion’s tone is a versatile MOSFET drive circuit
that can range from a subtle, light overdrive to fully saturated distortion.
A flexible three band equalizer includes a three way EQ Position switch
to select where the EQ falls in the pedal’s signal path.
The Nano Battalion features a normal ¼” input, plus a ¼” output that
can output either a normal, unbalanced signal (with a normal TS cable)
or a balanced signal (with a TRS cable) to go right into a mixing console
or recording interface. The Nano Battalion features buffered bypass and
runs on a standard 9.6VDC center negative supply, drawing 45mA.
- Using the Nano Battalion -
Plug the 9VDC adapter into the jack on the top of the Nano Battalion.
The unit must be powered to pass signal even in bypass. Connect an
instrument cable from your bass into the
INPUT
jack. Insert a normal
TS instrument cable between the
OUTPUT
jack and a suitable amplifier,
or insert a TRS cable (or TRS to male XLR cable) between the
OUTPUT
jack and a suitable mixing console or recording interface. Click the
BYPASS
footswitch to engage the Nano Battalion. The LED lights to
indicate that the unit is active.

Battalion requires

at 9VDC with a center negative plug. Use of the wrong adapter
or a plug with the wrong polarity may damage your Nano Battalion and void the warranty.
