Plugging into a flat-response power amp, recording interface or mixer DI:

RE-AMP EQ:

Select PWR AMP on the RE-AMP EQ switch and use the HI SHELF

boost/cut control to fine-tune the high-frequency response. Set the BRI-CAP CUT filter
control fully counter-clockwise (no treble roll-off).

MODE DIP switch:

On the rear of the pedal, set switch 1 on the MODE DIP switch to

the upward position. When the RevivalDRIVE is in BYPASS mode, or when blending DRY
signal components, your input signal will still pass through the preamp EQ filters.

Please note that a cabinet simulator will be required for DI applications where the signal is
to be reproduced via a full-range speaker system.

OPERATING THE PEDAL

ON footswitch:

Toggles between BYPASS (“off”) and EFFECT (“on”) modes.

CHANNEL SELECT footswitch:

Toggles between the VALVE RECTIFIER and

SILICON RECTIFIER channels.

Channel indicator LEDs:

The currently selected channel is indicated by the VALVE

RECTIFIER (orange) and SILICON RECTIFIER (white) LEDs. These remain active when
the effect is bypassed.

Jewel lamp:

The central jewel lamp will illuminate when the effect is engaged. Because it

is directly connected to the power supply, the lamp will dim as the power amp “sags”, just
like the jewel lamp on a vintage amp.
