“TONE” + “DEEP” switches
The "TONE" + "DEEP" switches work very similarly in both channels:
"TONE" determines the proportion of heights:
upper position = much treble
middle position = normal
lower position = less treble
"DEEP" raises the low mid-range (about 300 Hz) to achieve a fat tone:
upper position = raising the lower m presence raising
middle position = function off (no sound influence) lower position = only raising the lower
middles
Note:
The frequency response of the "DEEP" switch is designed so that it does not raise the low bass range at the same
time. This avoids a queasy sound and you don't get into the frequency range that should be reserved for your
colleague with the mostly 4-string (slightly larger) guitar.
“BASS”, “MID”+ “TREBLE” controls
The tone controls of both channels ("BASS", "MID" and "TREBLE") are based on tried and tested
circuit technology. However, with 2 essential special features:
1. Adjusting the controls has a greater influence on the sound than many older amplifier models.
2. The "MID" controller performs 2 tasks. On the one hand it raises the middles broadband and
strongly, on the other hand it lets (when opened enough ) more and more the pure, natural
guitar sound through.
Note:
By turning up the "MID" control, the "BASS" and "TREBLE" controls lose their effect. This is normal and intended to
reproduce the original/natural sound of the guitar.
“Reverb” control
For the reverb, a DSP module from "ACCUTRONICS" works in the "blue note", which fits very
harmoniously into the overall concept of the amplifier. It can be adjusted with the help of the
"REVERB" control. With the "REVERB"-knob fully turned up, a spacy, almost chorus-like effect
can be achieved. The reverb can be switched off by means of a foot switch (socket
"FOOTSWITCH" on the rear panel).
Note:
The reverb is the only digital signal processing circuit in this amplifier. This is mixed in parallel to the original signal
via the "REVERB" potentiometer. Thus, the guitar signal is free of any digital influence when the reverb is switched
on or off.
