Standard Single Input Setup - in this setup your acoustic/electric guitar is plugged
into input 2. (Remember, if you are using an active guitar or pre-amplified guitar, select
the active input. We also suggest that you turn its output level to about mid way up and
this will give you a cleaner sound as well as giving you available headroom for leads.)
The tone controls follow both inputs.
Of course, you can adjust the tone controls to any desired sound, but in this setup we
suggest these tone control settings. It will deliver a clear, clean sound that has enough
top end clarity to cut through. Add low and low mid for a beefier presence, but be careful
as this can muddy up the sound.
Adjust the reverb and chorus to suit the music or to your taste.
Standard Dual Input Setup - in this setup two inputs are utilized. Guitar is plugged
into guitar input jack and a Hi-Z microphone is plugged into mic/line Input. Assuming you
are also using a microphone, plug it into the mic/line jack and slowly turn up the mic/line
volume control. Balancing the two types of inputs gives you a much more natural acoustic
guitar sound.
You could also plug in any combination of inputs such as: keyboards, microphones or
other guitars.
This can also be a basic mini-PA system. It could be used for plugging in a CD player
or cassette decks and a microphone for singing. It can be used for playing over prerecorded
tapes with mixing capabilities.
As mentioned earlier, you can adjust the tone controls to any desired sound, but in this
setup we suggest these tone control settings. Of course it depends on the listening
environment. It will deliver a clear, clean sound that has enough top end clarity to let the
acoustic sound cut through.
Adjust the reverb to suit the music or to your taste.
Suggested Settings
(These settings are general starting points. They
are designed to get you close to the sound you are
looking for. If the control is not shown, then it doesnt
apply to this particular sound. )
