ZOOM Tri Metal TM-01
Battery gets used up very quickly.
Power to the TM-01 gets turned on when a plug is inserted in the IN jack. In this condition, current is drawn from the
battery regardless of whether the effect is switched on or off. When not using the unit, be sure to disconnect the plug from
the IN jack. Also, the use of alkaline battery rather than manganese is recommended. Connecting the AC adapter
(ZOOM AD-0006) allows extended use without having to worry about the battery. When using several effect devices,
powering them from AC adapters is recommended. *The initially supplied battery is for checking only and may have a
short service life.
Distortion is not strong enough. Sound is not clear.
Turn up the position of the GAIN control and of the TREBLE/MIDDLE/RANGE/BASS controls. Also don't forget to fully
turn up the level and tone controls of the guitar.
When using an effect device between the TM-01 and the guitar, check the battery, volume, and cable of that device.
Cannot produce the desired sound.
The audible result of using the TM-01 depends on various different factors. Hardware such as effect devices, guitar, and
amplifier of course must be considered, but play technique aspects such as picking and fingering are also important.
When creating your sound, do not set controls initially to the 0 or 10 position. Start with all controls set to center and
perform fine adjustment from there.
