Preamp #1 Output:
(Dry signal, no chorus)
Load Impedance: 10 K ohms
or greater
Nominal Output: 0 dBV,
1 V RMS
Maximum Output: +18 dBV,
8 V RMS
(Switching jack, removes dry
signal feed to output #2 when
used, allowing full stereo
output patching)

(Mix of dry and
chorus signals)
Load Impedance: TO K ohms
or greater
Nominal Output: 0 dBV,
1 V RMS
Maximum Output: +18 dBV,
8 V RMS
(This output is converted to
chorus signal only if output #1
above is used tor
output patching)
Headphone Output:
(Stereo jack, stereo signal)
Load Impedance: 4 ohms or
greatcr/channcl
Nominal power output: 100 mW
into 4 ohms/channel
(Switching jack, disconnects
internal speakers when a stereo
phone plug is fully inserted)
