INPUT : Connect your instrument via a standard ¼” 

mono cable.

PASSIVE/ACTIVE : Switch from passive to active 

mode. Some active basses can have a hotter signal 

output which can make the amp distort early (feel 

free to use it on Passive move even with active 

basses if such additional distortion is desired).

MICROTUBES: Turns on or off the Microtubes Engine

™ to add natural compression, organic harmonic 

enhancement, and saturation ranging from mild 

overdrive to high gain bass rage.

The Microtubes Engine operates before the clean 

section (you can therefore use the 4 Band Active EQ 

for additional tone shaping in addition to the Tone 

knob described below).

DRIVE : Controls the amount of distortion that the 

Microtubes Engine will deliver. It will change

from a soft warm overdrive to a massive modern 

distorted tone.

FEATURES

FRONT PANEL

TONE : Controls the high harmonic content of the 

Microtubes Engine via a variable low pass filter: 

crank it up for additional attack and definition or 

dim it down for a smoother sound. This is handy if 

running bright clean EQ settings or cabinets with 

tweeters.

LEVEL : Controls the Microtubes Engine’s output 

volume.

BLEND : Mixes between the Clean signal and the 

Distortion signal (Microtubes Engine).

B3K/VMT : Selects between two overdrive voicings: 

B3K mode will deliver an aggressive, percussive 

sound while the VMT will bring up the mids for a 

warmer, more neutral character.
