  • Page 6 Connecting Input jack – 1/4 inch mono jack input. If you run the pedal on battery, we recommend removing the input jack to preserve battery power when you don’t play. Output jack – 1/4 inch mono jack output for connecting to another pedal or directly into an amp or mixer.
  • Page 7: Bass & Treble

    The Controls BASS & TREBLE Bass/treble controls. Add bass for more punch or roll off a bit for a tighter sound, especially on big cabinets. Add treble to cut through a dense mix or compensate for signal lost in long cables. For a softer tone, try reducing the treble. GAIN Controls the amount of gain. This is a clean booster pedal, but a high gain setting gives a natural break-up as on a cranked amp. LEVEL Sets the overall level.
  • Page 8 Voice Type selector Three Voice types are available in “Fat” position (up), the low-end frequencies are naturally boosted. This is excellent where the guitar is allowed to take up a great portion of the sonic spectrum. “Clean” position (middle), is a total transparent mode. No EQ is applied to the signal. in “Mid” position (down) midrange frequencies are emphasized. It is not only a boost in level that will make your licks stand out.
