Channel 1 (Ch1) and Aux Input
Ch1 has a selectable medium/high input impedance . It is designed for pas-
sive transducers (eg. piezo or magnetic pickup) and it can handle up to 0 dBu
without distortion. Use a mono jack from the left side in proximity of the Ch1 to
connect to your pickup.If you are properly connected, your signal strenght will
be monitored via the Ch1 LED.
Level control and +10dB gain button.
The
LEVEL
knob controls the output signal of the Ch1. If you are tuning the
Ch1’s equalizer or if you do not intend to use Ch2 keep the
LEVEL
of Ch2 to
minimum. Ch1 offers
+10dB
gain boost to be used if the input signal is low.
Parametric high-pass filter (HPF )
Ch1 is equipped with a 2nd order high-pass filter with cut off frequency tun-
able from 40 to 150Hz. For double bass, the high-pass filter remove the subhar-
monic “thump” generated by the plucked bass, which otherwise can drive
ported bass speakers to over-excursion.
Parametric equalizer (EQ1)
Ch1 is equipped with a parametric equalizer designed to control the mids of
your passive pickup. It operates between 350Hz to 4KHz with correction of +/-
12dB.If you use a piezo transducer, by attenuating at least 6dB the frequency
around 1 o’clock you will be able to obtain a much more natural sound.
Impedance selector
Next to the Ch1 1/4” input you will find a
Med (1Meg)/High impedance
(8.2 Meg)
selector which will match the impedance of your pickup.
Aux input
Acoustic Box
II
is equiped with an independent
Aux Input
. You can use it
to connect an external source such as a metronome/ipad/phone/looper
e.t.c. for playback, practice or performance purposes. In conjunction with the
Aux stereo
Headphones
output it can be used for linear on stage monitoring.
