Controls
The controls are arranged in two distinct levels. Once your fingers are familiar
with the layout, you will be able to easily adjust the controls, even when you can’t
see them.
(1 2 3)
1. Blend
Use the Blend slider to adjust the balance between the pickup and the Image.
You’ll attain a more microphone-like sound by favoring the Image. Note that it
is often practical to blend in a higher percentage of the pickup in live situations,
especially when you desire a more focused amplified tone.
2. Phase
Use the Phase switch to improve bass response at low volume and suppress
feedback at high volume. Push the Phase switch in and out and leave it in the
position most pleasing to your ear. If feedback occurs, push the switch again.
3. Volume
For the cleanest noise-free sound, set the volume as high as possible without
causing your amp or mixer to distort.
4. Anti-Feedback
The Ellipse Aura is equipped with an automatic search-and-destroy notch filter.
To engage the feature, turn the Volume down and move the Anti-Feedback
switch left (On position). Hold the Measure button for a few seconds. The Battery
LED will begin to flash. Turn up the Volume, then either dampen the strings while
tapping the body or play the troublesome note until feedback begins. The filter
will latch onto the feedback, eliminate it after a few seconds and hold the setting
in memory until you push the Measure button again.
If you plan to record with the Ellipse Aura, we recommend you turn off the
Anti-Feedback to fill out the natural low-end response of the guitar.
5. Image Switch
Select one of the four Images you’ve uploaded from the Aura Gallery (see page
3). Note that to experience the benefits of Aura, you must first upload Images
into the preamp.
