PLUGGING IN THE ATTACK DECAY
1. Connect the supplied EHX9.6DC AC Adapter into the 9V jack at the
top of the Attack Decay. Plug the AC Adapter into an AC outlet.
2. Connect your guitar or other instrument into the INPUT jack using a
standard 1/4" instrument cable. Connect the OUTPUT jack to your
amp with another standard 1/4" instrument cable.
CREATING A VOLUME SWELL EFFECT
1. Ensure none of the PRESET or POLY buttons at the top left of the
Attack Decay are lit. If any button is lit, press it once to turn it off.
2. Ensure that H LED, located above the left footswitch, is turned off.
This turns on and off the Attack Decay's internal fuzz. If the H LED is
lit, press the left footswitch once to turn it off.
3. Turn the BLEND knob to maximum. This ensures that only the volume
envelope effect is heard and no dry signal is mixed-in.
4. Set the DECAY knob to maximum. Set ATTACK to about 10 o'clock.
5. Start with the VOL knob at 50%. Adjust after playing if needed.
6. Start with the SENS knob set to 50%. Turn up SENS if the envelope
does not trigger with each note; lower SENS if it triggers too often.
7. Now engage POLY mode by pressing the POLY button. You might need
to turn up the ATTACK knob as well.
USING THE HARMONIX FUZZ EFFECT
1. Follow the instructions above to get the desired envelope effect.
2. Deactivate POLY mode if POLY is currently lit.
3. Set the H.VOL knob to 9 o'clock as this fuzz can get loud!
4. Press and release the left footswitch to activate the Harmonix effect.
5. Adjust the sound of the Harmonix fuzz with the three small knobs in
the upper right corner. The HARMONIX knob sets gain/saturation,
TONE adjusts brightness, and H.VOL is the fuzz's volume control.
