Endpin Jack
When you plug into the endpin jack, the Stereo Onboard Blender™ switches on. To
conserve the battery, remove the instrument cable from the endpin jack when the
system is not being used. It is a good idea to turn down your amp or mixer input
before you plug into the endpin jack. Doing so will protect your speakers (and your
ears) from loud pops.
Battery Low LED
Plug into the endpin jack and the Low Battery light will flash momentarily, indicating
that the power is on. When the Low Battery light stays on, it is time to change the
battery.

Volume Control

Set this as high as possible (without distorting your amp or mixer) for the cleanest
signal. This control affects both the pickup and the microphone.
Notch and Phase
These controls work hand in hand to suppress two adjacent ranges of acoustic
feedback. When you set them properly, you can play your instrument as loud as you
like, feedback free.
Notch
Tune the Notch filter to scoop out the lowest range of feedback when you play
bass notes between the open low E string and (up to and including) the fourth fret
G sharp on the same string. Low frequency "cavity resonance" feedback can usu-
ally be squelched by setting the Notch control between one o'clock and two
o'clock on the dial. Note that for instruments that do not suffer from low frequen-
cy feedback, the notch can be defeated by moving the dial to the Off (seven
o'clock) position.
