For AC power, use the Fishman 910-R (for 110V) or other suitable 9V adapter. The adapter must be fi ltered, regulated and rated for at least 200mA. It must also accept AC power appropriate for your country.
- Page 9 Controls Level The level control mixes the selected effect in parallel, adding as much or as little reverb as you want in addition to your direct sound. This means that your tone is preserved while the effect is blended into it. Tone Use this to add brightness or warmth to the sound of the effect without altering your direct sound.
- Page 10 Controls (continued) Effect Select Knob AFX • Reverb offers eight popular reverbs, chosen and voiced especially for acoustic instruments. Studio The smallest space in the set, this effect mimcs the sounds of a tightly tuned recording studio space. Room The early refl ections and short decay time bring to mind the feel of a small room. Plate Classic warm analog plate reverb used throughout the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s.
- Page 11 Controls (continued) Chamber Before digital reverbs were available, chambers were built in major recording studios. A speaker and one or more microphones were placed in these oddly shaped rooms which created a very live reverberant sound that could be mixed into studio recordings.
- Page 12 Controls (continued) Cathedral Slightly boomy and very large, this hall reverb exhibits very late refl ections and long decay time. Canyon Extremely late refl ections (echo) and a very long resonant, decay.
- Page 13 Footswitch When the green light above the footswitch is on, the effect is active. Step on the footswitch to bypass the AFX • Reverb. When the effect is bypassed, your in- strument signal passes through an all-analog buffered signal path. This buffered path provides an incredibly low-noise output useful for driving long cable runs, such as to a mixing console.
