CONTROL OPERATION
(See picture on page 1).
1. Blend Control. The Blend Control is offered for a
wider variety of sounds than available from con-
ventional pickup selector switches. It may be varied
from the neck pickup (full clockwise - CW) to the
center detent (both pickups) to the bridge pickup (full
counterclockwise - CCW) or any blend in between
Due to the nature of this control, neither pickup is
turned fully off.
Volume Control. This control is conventional with full
output in the GW position and no output in the CCW
position.
3. Low Control. The Low Control is centered at 50 Hz
and offers +8 dB boost (CW) and -8 dB cut (CCW)
Mid Control. A Mid Control has been included and is
of the peak/notch variety. This control operates trom
100 Hz to 2 kHz with notch centers at 300 Hz (CCW)
and 1.5 kHz (GW). Some interaction with the Low and
High controls will be noticed at either extreme of the
Mid Control's operation:
5. High Control. The High Control is centered at 2.5 kHz
and has +12 dB boost (CW) and -12 dB cut (CCW)
6. Bypass Switch. The Bypass Switch is a two-position
mini-toggle located on the face of the instrument. Its
purpose is to allow the player to convienently switch
to the passive made in the event of battery mal-
function or failure. The up position of the switch is
passive and bypasses the internal preamp. This
allows normal (passive) operation of the Dyna-Bass.
