11 - Power Sponge
™ Found on the VYPYR 75 and 100 only
This knob allows you to turn down the output section of the amplifier. Don’t confuse this with the
Master Volume control. Power Sponge adjusts the amount of power the amp is capable of producing.
This patented circuit allows you to get that full-on cranked sound at bedroom levels.
12 - Power
Turn it on! Since VYPYRs have such advanced processing, they require a few moments to boot up.
It’s very quick and you may not even notice it. On the VYPYR tube amplifiers you will find the addi -
tion of a Standby switch. This switch allows time to warm up the tubes. Tubes need to be hot in order
to produce the desired power and tone. We suggest you allow at least three minutes before turning the
standby switch on.
13 - Bank and Preset Select
Your VYPYR comes equipped with 12 factory presets. These presets are in groups of 4 and savable
to banks A, B and C. To select a bank simply press the button at the far left. The LED will indicate
which Bank of four you are currently on. Select which preset you’d like to hear by pressing one of the
four buttons to the RIGHT of the BANK BUTTON. If you want to erase our preset and put yours in,
NO PROBLEM. After you have configured the amp and it sounds good, then PRESS AND HOLD
ONE OF THE PRESET BUTTONS just like a car radio. Your tone is saved.
14 - Tap Tempo
Tap on this button to set the tempo of the Delay effect. If you AREN’T HEARING ANY DELAY,
enter EDIT mode (15) to TURN THE LEVEL UP .
CAUTION: The on/off switch in this unit does not break both sides
of the primary mains. Hazardous energy can be present inside the
chassis when the on/off switch is in the OFF position.
