LP User's Manual - The Basics
Set up
Before you remove the Little Phatty from the carton, make sure you have an adequate place to set it up. You
will need a sturdy keyboard stand or table that will support a 22 lb. analog synthesizer and will not topple
if you play hard. Use caution when lifting the Little Phatty out of the carton, and be sure to save the carton
and all packing material in case you need to ship the Little Phatty for any reason.
Connect to Power
Connect the Little Phatty's power receptacle (on the side panel) to a wall outlet using the supplied AC power
cord. The Little Phatty's universal power supply will operate with a power source from 90 to 250 Volts AC, 50/
60Hz.
Power up
Turn the power on. You will see the LCD screen light up and display the message:
After a few seconds the start-up screen disappears and the current preset will appear in the display. The
PRESET button will be illuminated in blue, the name of the current preset location and preset name will be
displayed on the top line of the LCD screen, and the message 'PRESET ACTIVE' will be displayed on the lower
line of the LCD screen.
Connect to Amplifier
Set the Little Phatty's Volume control to minimum before connecting to an amplifier or headphones. Adjust the
amplifier level for a comfortable listening level, and then slowly bring up the Little Phatty's volume. Make sure the
Output ON/OFF switch is illuminated purple – this means the output is turned on.
Start Playing!
Use the VALUE dial to scroll through the presets. All preset locations (00 – 99) are loaded with sounds from
the factory. There are a total of 100 locations in memory for presets – all are user programmable. Note that
once a preset is called up, you can tweak the parameters to your liking using the front panel controls. Any
changes made to the current preset will cause the PRESET button to change its illumination from blue to purple,
and the lower line of the LCD screen will change to 'PANEL ACTIVE'. If you make changes to a preset and want
to return to the original sound, press PRESET. You can toggle between the stored preset and the current edited
preset by pressing the PRESET button until you change presets. If you wish to save your changes – refer to the
section on Storing Presets on page 23. Any changes made to a preset will be lost if they are not saved once you
change to a new preset.
