gain at minimum to 10 dB´s of signal boost at maximum.
Not only does this
buffer
your signal to avoid treble-loss,
but it also gives you the ability to
boost
the overall signal
level, compensating for long cables and/or signal losses
from running a lot of pedals. You can also use it as a
pick-up
booster
, if you need a little more output from your instru-
ment.
Try setting the “
beef
” control at minimum and listen to the
sound when using either bypass configuration. Depending
on your setup, you may hear a clearer, more open sound
when using the buffered bypass. Then adjust the “
beef
”
knob to taste.
The TUNEMASTER can be used in
true bypass
or in
buffered
bypass
mode. The toggle switch between the in/out jacks
should be set to the right for
true
bypass
and to the left for
buffered
bypass
.
The
true
bypass
routes the input signal directly to the output.
In essence, when you are not tuning, it is as if the TUNEMAS-
TER isn´t even there.
The
buffered
bypass
lets you use the TUNEMASTER as a
line
driver
with an adjustable output level, called the “
beef
” con-
trol. In this configuration, the “
beef
” control goes from unity
Bypass mode
