Quick Start
This manual gives you all the information you need to use every one of the many features of the LDB-1se
Analog Drum Machine. But, before diving into the details, here is a quick start so you can begin playing
rhythms right away.
Power Up
1.
Insert a 9V battery, or plug in an AC adapter (AKA wall wart). The power jack on the LDB-1se is a cen-
ter-negative, type-M power jack. You can use just about any standard 9 to 10 volt pedal power sup-
ply. Connecting a power supply with too high voltage will damage the LDB-1se.
2.
Insert a mono 1/4" plug into the Audio output jack and plug the other end of the cable into your am-
plifier or mixer.
3.
Press the red button on the back to turn on the LDB-1se.
