1. INPUT 1 – Input jack for most bass guitars.
2. INPUT 2 – Low gain input jack for bass
guitars with active pre-amps (attenuated
–6 dB).
3. MID NOTCH – Mid-frequency cut; empha-
sizes bass and treble tones.
Button OUT bypasses Mid-Notch
Button IN activates Mid-Notch
4. VOLUME – Adjusts the loudness of the
amplifier.
5. EQUALIZER – Adjusts tone in 4 frequency
bands. Each knob provides up to 12 dB of
cut or boost with the center “5 1/2” position
having no effect on the signal.
6. AUX IN – RCA input jacks for use with a
portable CD or tape player, drum machine,
etc. These input jacks are not affected by
the amplifier’s volume or tone controls.
Adjust the signal at the source.
7. PRE AMP OUT – Connect this jack to the
input of an external effects device. This
output is pre Deltacomp™ adaptive com-
pression circuitry.
8. POWER AMP IN – Connect this jack to the
output of an external effects device.
9. HEADPHONES – Output jack for standard
stereo or mono headphones. Using this jack
automatically disconnects the speaker. This
jack can also be used as an unbalanced line
output (post Deltacomp™ adaptive com-
pression circuitry) by using either a stereo or
mono 1/4" phone plug connection.
10. LINE OUT – Output jack for connection to
recording or sound reinforcement equip-
ment. This impedance balanced TRS jack,
Tip (+), Ring (–), Sleeve (ground), provides a
low signal to noise ratio when connected to
a balanced input jack.

unit is ON.
