Be doubly careful to note and follow the warn- ings and special safety notices. Connections: Only use the connections as described. -
Page 5: Rack Mounting
Hook Up Hook up Be very careful to check that the rear chassis power selection switch is set to the correct local line voltage position before using the unit (230 V position: 220-240 V, 115 V position: 110-120 V)! When in doubt about a source, contact your dealer or a professional electrician. Before connecting any equipment make sure that any machine to be connected is turned off (rear panel power switch). -

Page 7: Advantages - An Overview, On Stage
Advantages – an Overview The Transducer supplants at least four loudspeaker cabinets, two high quality microphones, their preamp, a good room ambiance, and at any time, the amplifi cation may be cranked up. Moreover, the entire Transducer usage is highly intuitive and requires no prior miking exper- tise. -
Page 8: Sound Setups, Complete - Not Approximated - Simulation
Introduction Sound Setups After cabling is complete, the sound setup functions primarily as one might expect: First, guitar amp sound adjustments are prepared as though the cabinet were already connected. However, instead of choosing a cabinet and experimenting with microphones and their posi- tioning, adjustments need only be made with the Transducer controls. -
Page 9: Rear Panel
Rear Panel Power Connection Before you connect the Transducer to any local power source, be SURE to check that the rear panel voltage switch is correctly set for your local area (115V position: 110-120V, 230 V posi- tion: 220-240V). Connect the included power chord to the rear Mains Input. Transformer, power chord and case connection conform to VDE, UL and CSA requirements. -

Page 11: Connections
Rear Panel Connections Power Input Here you connect the guitar amp‘s loudspeaker output. Connector variant and pin confi gura- tions follow industry standards: Unbalanced 1/4” Jack connector with the signal at the tip and ground at the sleeve. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: As with any typical amp and cabinet cabling, it is critical to observe loudspeaker cable of a minimum 1.5 mm 2 cross section. -
Page 12: Rear Panel Connections
Rear Panel Connections Mic Level Output The microphone level output is usable just like any mike out. The Miking Level control on the Transducer front panel regulates the signal. The Output Gain control has no infl uence on the Miking Level output. Just as with conventional cabinet miking, variations in microphone preamp choices may of course be made to infl... -

Rear Panel Switches Power The rear panel Power switch activates the Transducer, confi rmed by the lighted blue front panel LED. Voltage The rear panel voltage selector switch serves to let the user switch to the local line voltage standard. IMPORTANT ADVICE: Before you use the Transducer, make sure that this switch setting refl... -

Front Panel Control Elements Controls, LEDs and Switches from left to right Signal LED The signal LED indicates the presence of a signal at the Transducer‘s input. It is activated at a -20 dBu level. WARNING If an amplifi er is connected and the Signal LED illuminates though a signal is not present or too much noise from the amp is not the reason, the lighted LED can indicate a high frequency resonance of the amp. -
Page 15: Microphone Selection
Control Elements Controls, LEDs and Switches from left to right Miking Level A microphone produces a different sound at lower sound levels than at higher ones. With the Transducer‘s Miking Level one can simulate these differences. Increasing the Miking Level effect produces a stronger compression level and a denser sound canvas. -
Page 16: Setup Examples
Setup Examples Recording, Live Setup 1 This is the simplest setup for recording situations. The guitar amp is connected normally to the Transducer. In this case either the Transducer Mic Level Output can be routed to a micro- phone preamp or its Line Output can connect to an external line in. Both of these outputs may be used simultaneously. -
Page 17: Live: Setup 3 And 4
Setup Examples Live Setup 3 If an on-stage guitarist wishes to have his cabinet sound, the signal should be routed to his box via the Transducer Speaker Thru. In this case the amp signal power is reduced by 8 dB enroute to the box;... - Page 18 Setup Examples Live: Stereo Effect/Dry-Wet-Wet Setup 5 Stereo Effects Setup: Dry-Wet-Wet Setup with guitar box (Dry) and two stage monitors (Wet). The dry guitar signal is routed from the Transducer Speaker Thru. Connect the Transducer Line Output to an effects machine. The effects machine‘s wet outputs (Right/Left) are then connected as needed to powered monitors.

The dry guitar signal is routed via the Transducer‘s Speaker Thru. Connect the Transducer Line Output 1 with an effects machine and each of it‘s wet outputs (L/R) to an active monitor. -
Page 20: Leveling The Transducer
Leveling the Transducer Presets All three Transducer level controls infl uence output levels. Therefore it is important to under- stand their existing mutual effects and the overall results. These controls have been designed purposefully with a percentage scaling, as one structured in dB is in fact not possible. The input signal itself –... -
