Speaker Simulator; Signal Level To Input; Power Requirements - Tech 21 TRI-O.D. Manual

-When going direct into a mixer/recorder, work with the input trim control on
the mixer and be sure not to overload its input.

SPEAKER SIMULATOR

The Speaker Simulator is engaged at all times. It shapes the sound to match the
particular cabinet of the amp type selected. It is specifically designed for a smooth,
even response as would be achieved by a multiple-miked cabinet, without peaks,
valleys, and notches associated with single miking.Therefore, it will not adversely
affect or interfere with the sound of your own guitar speaker cabinet.
When you disengage all 3 channels, the Speaker Simulator remains active, as does
the Master Output Section.The switching sequence then becomes Speaker Simulator
- Bypass, Speaker Simulator - Bypass, etc. This feature is useful to:
Record direct with a pre-amp, fuzz box or any other stomp
boxes in your collection that could use some warming up.
Warm up your favorite fuzz boxes in live performances, as well.
Use as a clean boost into the input of a tube amp.
Suggested Initial Set-Up: Turn all channels off.Turn the master Volume to maxi-
mum. Set Bass and Treble at 1 o'clock. Adjust to taste.

SIGNAL LEVEL TO INPUT

The TRI-O.D. is designed to accommodate instrument level signals to the Input,
such as the output of a guitar, the output of a pre-amp, the output of distortion
pedals, etc. Signal level to Input should be close to that of a standard electric guitar
(approx -10dB / 250mV). NOTE: Using hot pickups will increase the gain structure
of the TRI-O.D. For best results, use single coil pickups with Channel 1 (Tweed) and
double coil pickups with Channels 2 and 3 (California and British).
REMEMBER THIS WARNING:
DO NOT run the speaker output of any amp directly into the TRI-O.D.
Severe damage to the amp and/or the TRI-O.D. may result.
