is a common "smile" curve that gives a tight punchy sound with plenty of highs
to cut through a crowd.
14. MASTER VOLUME
The overall volume is controlled by the master volume. The position of this
control should always be higher than the individual channel volume. Never
turn a channel volume louder than the master volume or distortion could result.
15. POWER SWITCH
The power switch is to be utilized as the master ON/OFF switch. If the LED
does not turn on check the power cable and make sure it is properly connected
at the back of the amp. Also verify there is power at the wall receptical. If the
amp does not power up after this is verified, contact customer service.

16. STEREO LINE OUT JACK (HEADPHONES)
The LINE OUT jack is a post EQ output jack for pre amp signal access. Use
only a stereo 1/4" plug in this jack. This output is the same signal that is being
fed to the internal power amplifier that drives the speaker. Use this jack for a
direct to mixer feed or as a recording output to a tape deck. The DSP effects

AG100D. To use the 5 band Graphic EQ, set
all sliders to their center detent position.
When the sliders are in this position, they do
not effect the audio signal. When a slider is
raised or lowered it boosts and cuts the listed
frequency, respectively. One setting that can
be used to enhance your sound is to cut the
mid range (800 Hz slider set to -8) and raise
the high and low frequencies as shown. This

will be heard in stereo through this output. This jack will also function as a
stereo headphone output.
17. EFF 1 & 2 FOOTSWITCH JACK
You can remotely turn the two effects on and off by plugging in the optional
FS22 footswitch. Each effect red clip LED will light up continuously when the
effect is shut off by the footswitch.
18. EFFECTS SEND & RETURN JACKS
The EFFECTS SEND jack is the output send jack to your external effects unit.
The EFFECTS RETURN jack is the input return jack that completes the effects
loop. Plug the output of your external effects unit into this jack.
19. EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACK (CHASSIS)
The EXTERNAL SPEAKER jack is for connecting additional speaker cabinets.
The jack is configured so an external speaker cabinet can be connected in series
with the AG100D's internal speaker. Recommended external speaker impedances
are 4 to 8 ohms. Carvin recommends the matching 112AG extension speaker.
20. AC POWER
The detachable AC POWER CORD supplied is designed to operate with one
type of voltage (the European 230V export model uses a CEE-7 plug cord set).
Make sure the cord is securely inserted into the back of the unit. Plug the cord
into a grounded "3" prong" power source. No attempt should ever be made to
defeat or use the amp without the ground connected. The internal switching
power supply will "auto-switch" from 100 VAC to 250 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz. This
allows the AG100D to be used in various countries without the need for mod-
ifications or external transformers.
21. 1/4" SPEAKER INPUT (ENCLOSURE)
A 1/4" jack is used for connecting the amp to the speaker cabinet.
22. TWEETER L-PAD (ENCLOSURE)
The rear TWEETER L-PAD adjusts the level of the tweeter to give crisp clear
highs. If distortion is heard when playing excessively loud, turn the tweeter
down as it can amplify distortion created by a guitar or mic.
