Controls and Switches

We suggest you start exploring the channels with all controls set to 12 o‘clock 
and the master volume slightly cracked open.

CHANNEL 1

Volume
This knob controls the volume of Channel 1. The 
chosen setting takes effect on the amplifi ers  overall 
sound

Bass & Treble
These controls are responsible for the overall sound of 
Channel 1. Bass adjusts the lower frequencies while 
Treble will decrease or increase the level of high fre-
quencies.

CHANNEL 2

Volume
This knob controls the volume of Channel 2. The 
chosen setting takes effect on the amplifi ers  overall 
sound.

Bass & Treble
These controls are responsible for overall sound of 
Channel 2. Bass adjusts the lower frequencies while 
Treble will decrease or increase the level of high fre-
quencies.

CHORUS SECTION

Speed
Controls the rate at which the chorus modulates. Turn 
this knob clockwise to increase the rate, and counter-
clockwise to decrease the rate.

Depth
Controls the depth of the chorus effect. Turn this knob 
clockwise to increase the depth for a thick chorus 
sound, and counter-clockwise to decrease the depth 
for a shallow, light chorus sound.

CH1 & CH2
These buttons activate the chorus effect for every 
channel of the AC60R. If you wish to use the chorus 
for Channel 1, just push “CH1”.

REVERB

Balance
This knob controls how much reverb is
assigned to every channel of the AC60R. 

Reverb
Controls the percentage of effect used for the overall 
signal.

NOTCH FEEDBACK FILTER

Frequence
This knob controls the frequency that needs to be 
reduced inside the overall signal. The bandwidth 
ranges from 60Hz up to 1 kHz.

Phase
This feature allows you to turn the phase of the 
signal about 180 degrees. By activating this option, all 
frequencies that erase each other will be turned 
around to fi t inside the whole frequency spectrum.

Notch
This switch activates the Notch Feedback Filter. If you 
notice a frequence that is out of phase, we recom-
mend the following procedure:
Activate the “Notch” switch. Turn the “Frequence” 
knob clockwise until the phased-out frequency is 
erased.

Master
This knob controls the overall volume of the AC60R.
