.
1 INPUT OVERLOAD INDICATOR CHANNEL ONE.
2. INPUT LEVEL CONTROL CHANNEL ONE.
3. 5-BAND GRAPHIC EQUALIZER CHANNEL ONE.
This is a dedicated bass instrument equalizer designed to give you optimized tone of your
instrument. The frequency bands have been set precisely so that your desired tone can be
achieved with the minimum amount of sliders. The EQ filters are set at: 50Hz 160Hz
630Hz, 2.5KHz and 12KHz with 18dB of boost or cut. This EQ has a lot of control on your
sound so do not use too much boost, particularly on the 50Hz or 160Hz bands as this will
greatly limit just how much headroom you have.
4. INPUT OVERLOAD INDICATOR CHANNEL TWO.
5. INPUT LEVEL CONTROL CHANNEL TWO.
6. 5-BAND GRAPHIC EQUALIZER CHANNEL TWO.
7. COMPRESSION ADJUSTMENT LEVEL.
This will vary the level the limiter threshold. The compression ratio is 3dB to 1. Adjust
this to suit your playing style and output power of your instrument.
8. LIMITER INDICATOR.
This blue LED will light up when the signal is being compressed. This will vary on how
hard the instrument is played and how the threshold is adjusted.
9. POWER LED INDICATOR.
With power switched on the LED light is blue.
10. PASSIVE/ ACTIVE BASS INPUT SWITCH CHANNEL ONE.
This switch allows you to match the SUITCASE to match either active or passive basses.
PASSIVE - Higher sensitivity, high impedance input (125mV/4.7MΩ). For bass
instruments that do not have active electronics, suited for older 'vintage' basses. This
setting is precisely matched to high impedance pickups enabling them to faithfully
reproduce the true frequency and dynamic range of the instrument.
ACTIVE- Lower sensitivity input setting (300mV) for basses with onboard electronics.
Input matched for low signal to noise ratio and optimum transfer of electrical signal from
modern high-end basses.
11. INSTRUMENT INPUT JACK CHANNEL ONE.
This is a standard ¼ inch mono jack socket.
12. PASSIVE/ ACTIVE BASS INPUT SWITCH CHANNEL TWO.
