N
Battery gets used up very quickly.
Is a plug inserted in the IN jack?
G
Power to the HL-01 gets turned on when a plug
is inserted in the IN jack. In this condition,
current is drawn from the battery regardless of
whether the effect is switched on or off. When
not using the unit, be sure to disconnect the
plug from the IN jack.
Is a manganese battery being used?
G
The use of an alkaline battery rather than
manganese is recommended. The initially
supplied battery is for checking only and may
have a short service life. When mounting the
HL-01 on an effect board or similar, powering it
with the AC adapter (AD-0006) is
recommended.
N
Distortion is not strong enough.
Sound is not clear.
Are controls on HL-01 and guitar set
G
correctly?
Turn up the GAIN control and the TREBLE,
MIDDLE, RANGE, or BASS control on the
HL-01. Try to fully turn up the level and tone
controls of the guitar.
Is another effect device being used?
G
When using an effect device between the HL-01
and the guitar, check the battery, volume, and
cable of that device.
N
Cannot produce the desired sound.
Are controls set to extreme positions?
G
First set all controls to center and start with
slight adjustments.
Is the playing technique suitable?
G
The audible result of using the HL-01 depends
on various different factors. Hardware such as
effect devices, guitar, and amplifier of course
must be considered, but technique such as
picking and fingering are also important. Try
varying your style to check the effect.
