TIPS ON GETTING OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE FROM THE SYNTH9
1. The SYNTH9 is generally best used as the first pedal in an effects chain.
Place modulation, delay, and reverb effects after the SYNTH9. The unit will
not perform well if placed in the effects loop of a guitar amp.
2. For optimal playability, set the guitar's pickup selector to the bridge pickup
and turn the volume knob all the way up ("10").
3. Avoid placing a distortion or overdrive in front of the SYNTH9, which could
muddy up the input signal and cause the tracking to be unstable. If you
want to add overdrive or distortion, place it after the SYNTH9.
4. The SYNTH9 has a built in compressor that is active on the synth sounds at
all times. We recommend you do not insert another compressor into your
signal chain while the SYNTH9 is in effect mode.
5. The usable tracking range on the SYNTH9 extends up to about the 23rd fret
on the high-E of a standard guitar and down to the open A-string on a bass
guitar. The SYNTH9 sounds equally good on bass as it does guitar.
