Digital Processor Input Level Control; Mains/Xlr Output Level Control; Seven Segment Display; Rotary Controls - Art SGX-NightBass User Manual

NOTE: For additional information regarding proper signal levels, refer to the
Level section in Appendix A.

DIGITAL PROCESSOR INPUT LEVEL CONTROL

This slide control adjusts the amount of signal sent to the digital effects
section of the SGX NIGHTBASS. It is located at the end of the analog effects
section after Loop 1's return. Adjust the control to light the NOM LED the
majority of the time and allow for transients to light the CLIP LED occasionally.
When the slider is set to the far left, signal is still sent through the
processor. For hotter signals from the analog section, set the slider to the
left.

MAINS/XLR OUTPUT LEVEL CONTROL

The Output Level Control adjusts the final effect output level of the SGX
NIGHTBASS. With the slider fully to the left, there is no output signal present
at any of the output jacks. As you move the slider to the right the output signal
level of the unit increases. When the slider is fully to the right, 100% effect
output is achieved. With this slider you control the level to the Loop 2 effect
send and the XLR outputs, as well as to the final output section.

SEVEN SEGMENT DISPLAY

(Red Numeric Display)
The Seven Segment Display keeps you constantly informed of your Preset Number.
Preset numbers are displayed from 001 to 200. When a preset is active the display
is stable. A flashing display indicates you are in Edit Mode and a preset is
ready to be recalled. The right decimal point will light to warn you your
internal lithium battery is low and needs replacing. When using the Tuner, this
display will become your tuning meter.

ROTARY CONTROLS

ENCODER

The rotary Encoder enables you to make fast and accurate changes to presets,
parameters, and values accessable in each preset or function. You will notice the
encoder will turn continuously in either direction. When adjusting values, you
may notice they sometimes "wrap" around to the beginning or end of their range.
Other times when you reach a range end you will find you must go in the opposite
direction to return to the beginning. Each click of the Encoder will change the
parameter value one step.

INPUT GAIN

The Input Gain control sets the input level to the Preamp section. When the
control is set at 0, no signal is sent to the effects. Range runs from 1 to 11.

SECOND STAGE EQUALIZATION:

The Second Stage Equalizer is a four band cut and boost equalizer that allows you
to fine tune your sound from the front panel at any time without having to
program or edit a preset. Cut and boost levels are plus and minus 12 dB. You may
selectively "bypass" the Second Stage Equalizer in each preset by adding the
Preamp Select algorithm to the effects chain of the preset. Set the PRS parameter
to 2ND EQ OFF, this will remove the front panel EQ from the signal chain.

THRUST

Centered at 50Hz this controls your bottom end sound.
