Operating Power
Only use a regular
+9V DC Adapter (Negative center)
. Do not use a different adapter
(12V/18V) as it will void any warranty.
The
Les Boutiques
effect consists of 3 separate pedals that can be individually switched and
also have their own switching options. Be warned that turning all 3 effects to maximum
gain may result in it squealing like a pig depending on how clean your DC adapter is (it
will at best amplify all the noise in your signal chain for a hissing extravaganza).
However, the effects are perfect for stacking and by doing so creating eternal feedback
that Gary Moore and Billy Gibbons love(d) to ride like a wave.
The individual effects from right to left:
•
Royal Tone
Inspired by the Prince of Tone (1/2 a King of Tone) by Analogman, which itself is
based on the Marshall Blues Breaker.
•
Horse Majeur
Inspired by the Klon Centaur by Bill Finnigan.
•
Merlin
Inspired by the Tim(my) by Paul Cochran, which in essence is a stripped down
and tweaked version of a Tube Screamer.
This effect is a fully tricked out pedal, a true options galore. However, pretty as that
might be, it might also scare some users off. To keep the pedal accessible for
all
users,
we split the manual up into 2 sections:
Basic
(external pots and switches) and
Advanced
(internal switches). You can stick to the basic settings and only read the
advanced settings if you are interested in more in depth tweaking.
