Before you begin using your Blender, you will need to have a pickup and microphone in place on your instrument.

ACTIVE PICKUP AND MICROPHONE:
If your instrument has an active piezo pickup
- such as the Fishman Acoustic Matrix - you
will need a Fishman Smart Switch to connect
a microphone to the stereo endpin jack for
the system to operate.
(See Page 22.)
PICKUP AND MICROPHONE
WITH SEPARATE MONO INSTRUMENT CABLES:
You may choose to route the pickup and microphone through
two separate mono instrument cables.

PASSIVE PICKUP
AND MICROPHONE:
If your instrument has a passive piezo
pickup, it’s easy to connect it and a
microphone to the same stereo endpin
jack. Connect the pickup to tip, and the
microphone to ring.
PICKUP WITH POWERJACK
AND MICROPHONE:
If your instrument has a piezo or magnetic
pickup and a Fishman Powerjack, connect
a microphone to the ring by soldering it to
the appropriate terminal on the Powerjack
circuit board.
