- BLUE SERIES - If you want to use STEREO ECHO right away, follow the stereo output device such as a STEREO CHORUS, connect it instructions in this chapter. However, we strongly recommend to both INPUTS. that you read the rest of the manual immediately to fully understand and master the capabilities of this sophisticated 5. Since the STEREO ECHO has an amplification level of 1, the signal processor. input signal level is the same as the output level, so set the volume of the sound system to the same level as when the 1. Make sure that the amplifier or other equipment you are STEREO ECHO is not used. connecting to is turned off before connecting the STEREO ECHO. 6. You are now ready to use STEREO ECHO. Adjust the Note: Use the recommended AC adapter. Use alkaline PREAMP LEVEL so that the red LED turns on momentarily batteries, the operating time is approximately 2 hours. when the guitar is played hard. Reference: Humbucking PU "0". 2. Connect the STEREO ECHO's OUT jacks to a stereo Single PU "+6" or "0 amplifier, two channels of a mixer, or two guitar amplifiers, Turn up the FEEDBACK controller gradually (clockwise) to find respectively, using cables. If you need mono outputs, connect the proper level. the LEFT OUT (MONO) output jack to your sound system. In this case, use the OUTPUT controller to adjust the output volume of the echo. 3. Set all controllers all the way to the left and set the PAN switch in the center. 4. Connect your instrument to the LEFT IN (MONO) jack. If you are using a GENERATOR, connect the GENERATOR output to the LEFT IN (MONO) mono input. If you are using a GOAT BLUE SERIES / STEREO ECHO... -

FEEDBACK The CLIP LED indicates the level of the signal passing through Setting the FEEDBACK controller to (maximum) allows the the internal circuitry. The red LED indicates that the level is feedback to continue indefinitely. approaching the distortion point and should not be lit too CAUTION: Playing sound with the infinite repeat setting may often. If the red LED is often lit, turn down the PREAMP damage your speakers and ears. In such a case, moving the LEVEL by 1 memory. The yellow LED indicates the best signal controller back slightly to the left will produce a delay that level with the least noise. If the yellow LED does not light up at repeats many times without the fear that the echo will run out all, increase the PREAMP LEVEL by 1 memory. If the yellow of control. LED is not lit at all, the 0 position is best for normal line-level signals. If you are connecting a guitar directly, you may need ECHO TIME to set the PREAMP LEVEL to the +6 position. If you are The ECHO TIME controller controls both left and right delay connecting a generator, set the PREAMP LEVEL to the -6 times simultaneously and is designed to maintain the correct position. In all cases, watch the LEDs and switch to find the stereo image at any setting position. The delay ranges from best operating point. 75 to 300 milliseconds on the left and from 125 to 500 milliseconds on the right, with a variable filter built into the DELAY circuit to provide the best frequency response no matter The FEEDBACK controller determines the number of echo what delay time is set. Note: The reason the L delay time is repeats. The lowest setting produces a single, non-repeating slightly longer than half the R delay time is to make room in echo, with the number of repetitions increasing with clockwise the mix for the direct signal before the echo returns, making movement. the direct/echo distinction clearer and cleaner sounding. GOAT BLUE SERIES / STEREO ECHO... - Page 5 - BLUE SERIES - Echo Time LED Application The ECHO TIME LED allows you to visually check the delay If you set the DAYLAY to a medium length (75/125 to time, and the lit period corresponds to the setting of the long 125/200 milliseconds), the VOLUME to normal volume, and side (R side) of the construction echo. the FEEDBACK to zero, you can simulate a "slapback echo," which is ideal for vocals or deeply de-stressed guitars. The Output Mix (PAN) slapback effect can be used to create never-before-heard The PAN switch allows you to select one of the three preset effects, especially when playing arming techniques or synth stereo output formats. In the upper position, the stereo bends. artificial echo signal is mixed with the mono localized direct signal. In the middle position, both the echo and direct signals If the mixed sound is too thin, adding a little Kuko can make it are localized in stereo. In the bottom position, the direct signal sound deeper, and the instruments will sound louder. In is localized to 9 o'clock and the echo signal to 3 o'clock in the general, shorter delays are most suitable for percussive mixer's pan pot. The ECHO VOLUME controller can be used sounds, while longer delays are more suitable for vocals or to independently control the left and right echo volume for instrumental parts played with reggards. the direct signal. Mono in and mono out operation To use STEREO ECHO in mono, use the INPUT jack labeled LEFT IN (MONO) and the OUTPUT labeled LEFT OUT (MONO) on the panel. The PAN switch must be set to the top or middle position. ECHO TIME (125 to 500 milliseconds) during this mono mode operation. OUTPUT (ON/OFF switch) The ON/OFF FOOTSWITCH can be used to bypass the STEREO ECHO effect. The STEREO ECHO must be powered on even when bypassed, since the audio signal still passes through the noise buffer circuit. GOAT BLUE SERIES / STEREO ECHO...
