OPERATION
The Smooth is capable of a very good range of applications. While a
pedal always has certain limitations vs. Rack systems, care has been
taken to make your pedal as “pro” as possible.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
1.
In order to get the cleanest possible sound, set the Volume control
to maximum and us the "Push" control as you would a standard vol-
ume control.
2.
To get more Tube coloration and some overdrive, reduce the Vol-
ume control setting and increase the Push control setting.
SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL NOTES
Although the
Smooth
is very ruggedly housed ]in heavy gauge steel,
care should be given to the unit as tubes are made from glass. Avoid
physical abuse. A soft touch to the foot switch is all that is needed to
switch the unit. You will note the absence of a power switch on the
Smooth.
This was intentional on the part of the designer. There is no
possibility of unwanted power loss during a performance, and power
switches are just one more area of eventual wear- out that has been
avoided. The
Smooth
has been designed for prolonged periods of con-
tinuous use without overheating or damage. It has been observed that
the
Smooth
sound is actually enhanced with use as the tube ages.
