Do not open the panels of the amplifier. No user serviceable parts inside. Your Paul operates on very high internal voltages, which may still be present after the Amplifier has been turned off and disconnected for a while. Do not use the Amplifier for anything other than its design purpose: To Amplify Electric Guitar... -
Page 5: Mains Connections, Power And Standby
After about 40 seconds, the tubes have sufficiently heated for normal operation. Your Paul is now ready for operation and the standby switch can be turned to “run” (also facing up). Premature activation of the standby switch will lead to unnecessary tube stress and subsequent reduction of the power tube’s life span. -

t will take a little more time after warm-up until everything inside the amp is working in sync and to its fullest potential. A trained ear will notice a slightly warmer tone and better complexity in tone after playing the amp for a short while. It’s like warming up before running a marathon. Get it? 2.1.5 Power Tube Life The power tubes of your amplifier are subject to a certain aging process. -

The loops of your Diezel Paul send signals at higher levels and impedances, which makes this section of wiring less sensitive. You should still use reliable and good quality wiring for all loops and inserts. -
Page 8: Send/Return Loop
3.2.1 Send/Return Loop The System consists of 2 separate Loops. It allows creation of effects path in either serial, or parallel configurations. The individual channel volume controls determine the signal strength at the send jacks. The range is - ... to +10dB. The output impedance is 4.7 kOhm. If you want to use the loops, then connect the “Send”... -
Page 9: Compensated Out
There are 2 ways to handle effects signals. If you use the serial return, then the signal path of your Paul is interrupted, the signal is sent to the processor, gets more or less processed, then sent back to the serial return into the power amp. Digital effects units often digitize this signal, then process it, then convert it back to analog, then send it to the amp. -

Paul has 5 speaker jacks: 1 for a 16-Ohm load, 2 for 2 16-Ohm loads or 1 8Ohm load, and 2 for 2 8-Ohm loads or 1 4-Ohm load. Examples: Using two 8 Ohm cabs: each cab goes into the 4 Ohm outs (because 2x8Ohm results... -
Page 11: Midi In
Midi in receives “program change” orders from commonly available midi pedals and control systems. The Paul is able to supply phantom power to your midi pedal via a 7-prong DIN midi cable. This can help unclutter your stage system and rids the artist of these pesky power supplies. -
Page 12: Chapter Four: The Three Pre-Amplifiers
Chapter Four: Three Pre-Amplifiers 4.1 Pre-Amplifiers and their Functions The Diezel Paul comes equipped with 3 different and totally independent preamps. This allows the artist to play every conceivable musical style without having to make major changes to his or her amplifier. -

This channel is voiced for highly articulate single note lines or for very heavy and massive rhythm guitar. Due to its slight midrange accent and very high gain structure, it possesses good punch and will, with ease and authority, rule any stage or studio. The “less is often more” rule applies here also. -

So it is possible that tube brand and tube type will change during production. You can fine-tune your Paul by having different type and brands of tubes installed, however, it is imperative that the amp is biased properly. Paul utilizes 4 power tubes, organized in 2 pairs with dual bias possibility. -
Page 15: Chapter Six: Functions And Switches
The pair of Paul’s power tubes has its own tube fuse. Once a power tube may be broken, the LED on the back will lit and in many cases also the corresponding fuse is blown. Replace the fuse (20mm, 500mA) and tubes in this case. -

OK, here it is again: Select 01 on your MIDI pedal. Select channel one of the Paul. Now push “Store” twice. Voila, it’s a MIDI program! Now select program change “02” on your pedal, switch the amp to channel two, hit “Store”... -

Master 2 can be used for all channels, much like the Mid Cut function. 6.7 Store As discussed earlier, this is the universal programming button. Activating this button twice will verify an intended program procedure. In case you have pushed this button once by accident, or if you have started to program and don’t want to anymore for whatever reason, then you can push any other switch (any switch but the “Store”... -

(and processors and computers) of all kinds. We will only need to learn a small portion of this “language” to use the Paul and its peripheral MIDI partners. We are going to learn only about “program change”. -
Page 19: Program Information
Preamp channel one selector off, channel two selector on, channel 3 selector on. If you let go of “Mute” now, then your Paul is set to respond to MIDI channel 7 only. Get it? The table below gives you the sequence for all 7 MIDI channels. -
Page 20: Chapter Nine: Maintenance And Cleaning
The optional Columbus footswitch can be connected via the rear panel mounted XLR jack. Alternatively a Diezel FS7PA can be used with your Paul. It connects with a standard guitar cable. Chapter Nine: Maintenance and Cleaning 9.1 Cleaning Never use a wet method of cleaning the amplifier, i.e. any amplifier. Usually it is sufficient to wipe down the outside of the amp with a slightly moist cleaning rag. - Page 21 The Diezel Company wishes to express their gratitude and congratulate you on your decision to purchase the Diezel Paul Amplifier.
