Your
Deluxe Memory Man
with
chorus/vibrato
is designed with state-of-the-art solid state
circuitry to give you years of high quality, trouble-free performance.
Connect your guitar to the
INPUT
jack, and the
OUTPUT
jack into the input of your amp. Your
Memory Man can be used in combination with other effects devices — experiment to develop
your own unique sound. The bypass footswitch on top of the unit allows you to switch the
effect in and out. Unmodified signal is always available at the
DIRECT OUT
jack. Set the
LEVEL
control so that the
OVERLOAD LED
blinks on with the loudest notes you play, but does not
come on very brightly or too frequently. Overdriving the unit will cause distortion.
The
BLEND
control allows you to vary the mix of direct and delayed signals; it is set to the
center position equal levels of both.
FEEDBACK
provides delay repeats, or multiple echoes. If
set very high, runaway oscillation will occur. Fairly high feedback with short delay settings
produces a reverb effect.
The
DELAY
control determines the time between direct and delayed signals, and between the
repeats when feedback is used. Strange, eerie and unusual pitch-shift effects can be produced
by changing the delay while playing, especially while using feedback.
The
CHORUS/VIBRATO
control introduces a modulation in the delay time: slow for chorus,
faster for vibrato. This produces a "Doppler" pitch shifting in the delayed signal. A rich, vibrant
chorus effect is produced with the switch set to CHORUS, delay fairly short, blend at the
center, chorus set high, and feedback fairly high. When you determine the control settings for
your favorite effects, make note of them so you can quickly set up the unit before playing.
Unplug after use. Avoid operating near moisture. Rock-n-Roll!
