[. . . ] GM108 Users Manual Version 1. 0 June 2003 V-TONE ENGLISH V-TONE GM108 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS DETAILED SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Read these instructions. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). No user serviceable parts inside; refer servicing to qualified personnel. 8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. [. . . ] The DRIVE control regulates how much distortion you produce (depending on what amp, mode and speaker combination you select). To achieve the same volume level, turning DRIVE down means you have to somewhat increase MASTER. The more you crank up DRIVE, the louder it will get, so that you can finally adjust the volume using MASTER. This way, you can greatly vary your sound and still be in charge of volume. For guitar pros: You can use the volume control of your guitar as a creative tool as well. The AMP switch lets you decide which one of the three classically inspired guitar amp sounds you wish to recreate. TWEED: Offers the legendary American clean sound, with dynamic bass and clear transparence. BRITISH: Aggressive in the mids, tough and full of punch, thats how you can describe this setting. CALIF(ORNIAN): Lead and hot rhythms sounds are what you get with this setting. Use the MODE switch to select one of the three settings (CLEAN, HI GAIN and HOT) for the basic sound you selected with the AMP switch. The following description gives you some rough idea about the many possibilities. Experiment with DRIVE to come up with exactly the sound you are looking for!HOT: heavily distorted sound with endless sustain and an extra dollop of presence. Use the SPEAKER switch to adjust yet another parameter: select one of the three outstanding loudspeaker simulations that best fits the amp you go with. Hook up the output of your CD player, tape deck or walkman to the CD INPUT connector. This way, you can play music CDs or even CDs accompanying guitar-playing books and practice at the same time. Of course, you can do the same using your stereo, but then you couldnt hear both signals simultaneously via your headphones!If your CD player features RCA outputs, then youll need an adapter or an adapter cable. If you are playing alone, lower these frequencies relative to bass/highs to get a cool sound. When youre playing in a band, increase these frequencies relative to bass/highs to cut through. Your amps loudspeaker is automatically muted as soon as your headphones are connected. Some headphones cant handle extremely high volumes without beginning to distort.
