External Power
When external power is used, the internal battery becomes dis-
connected and will not experience a power drain. A wide range of
both a.c. and d.c. supply voltages is acceptable for power (5VAC
to 32 VAC or +/-7VDC to +/-48VDC) and it does not matter
whether the center pin is positive or negative. The power jack fits
a standard 6MM x 2MM power plug as used by most popular
stomp boxes.
Phantom Power
Phantom power applied to the D.I. from a mixer or preamp will
supply power to the pedal. Do NOT operate the ground lift
switch when running on phantom power. It makes a very loud
pop that could damage speakers.
9V Battery
You can use any type of 9V battery. However we recommend
using long life alkalines. You can use rechargables, but the pedal
unit does not supply a charging circuit. You must remove the dis-
charged battery to recharge it with an external charger. You can
expect from 100 to 150 hours of continuous use from a fresh
alkaline battery. Useful life is ended when the battery voltage
drops below 5.5 volts.
To extend battery life, always unplug the input when the unit
is not in use.
