  • Page 3 The pre and post DI outputs make sure your tone is THE tone, and stays consistent night after night. The Transit B pedal was also designed to fit in your case or bag, making it the perfect travel companion.
  • Page 4: Output Level

    Top Panel (1) OUTPUT LEVEL Controls the output level of the pre-amp. It does not affect the XLR direct outs. This allows you to adjust the 1/4” outs for stage rig, while not affecting the PA level. (2) LO-BAND/HI-BAND Controls the amount of compression to the Lo-Band and Hi-Band frequencies. The backlit LEDs come on with the footswitch, but each will flicker off while playing to show when compression occurs.
  • Page 5 Allows user to select the optimum setting for an instrument with either a passive or active pickup. (14)PRE-SHAPE Activates the circuit for the classic Trace Elliot® ‘Mid Pre-Shape’ that all users of Trace Elliot graphic style amplifiers will recognise immediately. The actual effect of this circuit is to boost the low and high frequencies (55Hz and 2kHz to 5kHz respectively) and to cut the mid frequencies (centred around 400Hz), giving an instant, clearly defined, punchy sound.
  • Page 6: Aux Input

    (19) DI PRE EQ XLR OUTPUT The Transit B can be run with a signal source from either pre or post processing. Use this XLR output if the DI is used in a live setting to send signal directly to a PA system. In this case, the DI signal will not be affected by changing any of the preamp controls, which allows independent adjustments for the PA system.
