14. REVERB: Adjust the amount of
reverberation with this control: at the
"0" position the signal is "dry" (no
reverb). As you bring the control up,
the amount of reverb increases.
15. PRESENCE: Increase the level of
upper harmonics with this control. The
presence control allows a boost of up
to 5dB at 10kHz.
16. STANDBY: This switch activates
the amplifier (providing the On/Off
switch, #17, is at the ON position), and
should always be turned on last. The
switch is ON in the up position. The
amp should be left in the Standby
mode (switch down) during set breaks.
NOTE: When you first power up this
amplifier, leave the Standby switch
OFF for at least 20 seconds. This
gives the power tubes a chance to pre-
end
pare themselves for action.
17. ON/OFF: This switch applies AC
voltage to the amplifier in the UP posi-
tion, and should always be turned on
first. The Active Lamp (#18) lights up
when the AC power is on.
18. ACTIVE LAMP: This domed lamp
lights when the amplifier is powered
up, indicating it is ready to be played.
(The lamp stays on regardless of the
setting of the Standby switch, #16.)
