Turning the Power On/Off
* Once everything is properly connected (p. 6 – p. 9), be sure to
follow the procedure below to turn on their power. If you turn
on equipment in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction
or equipment failure.
1.
Make sure that the Blues Cube's [MASTER] knob and the
volume of the devices connected to the Blues Cube are set
to 0.
* Before connecting your instrument to the Blues Cube's INPUT
jack, set the [MASTER] knob to the minimum setting (far left).
2.
Turn on the Blues Cube.
* Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to
turn the volume down. Even with the volume
turned down, you might hear some sound
when switching the unit on/off. However, this is
normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
* This unit is equipped with a protection circuit.
A brief interval (a few seconds) after turning
the unit on is required before it will operate
normally.
3.
Turn on the power of the devices connected to the LINE
OUT jack, PHONES jack, and REC OUT O port.
4.
Adjust the volume levels for the devices.
Before switching off the power, lower the volume on each of the
devices in your system and then TURN OFF the devices in the
reverse order to which they were switched on.
* If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the
unit, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Refer
to "To completely turn off power to the unit, pull out the plug
from the outlet" (p. 2).
