Getting Ready

Input Settings

The AD-10 is equipped with two channels of
input jack (GUITAR IN 1, 2). You can use these to
blend two different types of pickup, such as piezo
+ magnetic, in the desired balance, or to switch
between two connected guitars that you're using
in a live performance.

Adjusting the Input Sensitivity

Use the rear panel [INPUT SENS] knobs
to adjust the input sensitivity. Adjust the
sensitivity so that the top panel INPUT
indicators light orange when the maximum
input occurs. If the input level is excessive,
the INPUT indicators light red.
Switching Between GUITAR IN 1/2 and Adjusting
the Balance
If you're using both the GUITAR IN 1 and 2 jacks, you can switch
jacks 1 and 2 on/off, or turn them both on and adjust the mix
balance.

Each time you press this button, the input
selection switches between 1, 2, and 1+2
(MIX). The indicator (CH1, CH2) of an input
that's on is lit.
Adjusting the CH1/CH2 balance
If you select 1+2 (MIX), the CH1 and CH2 indicators are both lit,
and you can adjust the balance.

(MIX).
