Using Your Amplifier
IMPORTANT! Before connecting your amplifier to a power source, please check the following:
1.
Ensure your speaker cabinet is connected to the correct impedance speaker output socket, (see Rear Panel, item 2), using a
good quality speaker cable.
Do not use guitar leads.
(Head models only. Combo models will have it’s speaker attached).
2.
Ensure that the voltage selector switch is set to the correct mains voltage, (see Rear Panel, item 5).
When powering up your amplifier, switch to the ‘Standby’ position first and leave for two minutes before switching to the ‘On’ position. (This will maximise
the life of your valves)..
If you are unsure about any of the above points please consult your local Orange supplier.
Using The ‘Natural’ Channel
The Natural channel feeds your guitar straight into your amplifier’s power amp for pure, unaffected tone. Try this channel with different guitars to hear the
tonal variations of each instrument. Increasing the gain will allow the power section to break up a little for natural distortion sounds.
Using the ‘Dirty’ Channel
The Dirty Channel has a three stage gain section, turning the gain control clockwise will gradually increase the saturation level from clean through
blues/crunch up to full rock sounds.
