User manual FENDER RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE

[. . . ] The inclusion of CHORUS infinitely widens the range of tonalities the RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE can produce. By incorporating the chorus circuitry within the power-amp/compressor loop, the need for complicated and expensive compounding (quieting) circuitry has been eliminated. The RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE incorporates a highly efficient, computerdesigned, tuned-port cabinet, and delivers a full 200 watts R. M. S. The RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE HEAD is designed to perform well with any high quality speaker system, but performs best when used with members of the FENDER BXR series, which include various combinations of ten inch and fifteen inch speaker enclosure systems. [. . . ] WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE FRONT PANEL FUNCTIONS The front and rear panel contains all items necessary for system operation and observation. Please read this section of the manual carefully to make sure you understand all the operational features for your new FENDER RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE bass amplifier. INPUT 1 - A high impedance, high sensitivity plug-in connection for instruments. This input can handle as much as 2. 5 volts R. M. S. , and should be used with most instruments. This input is recommended for basses with active pickups, and can handle as much as 5 volts R. M. S. . DEEP - Boosts and extends the low frequency response of the amplifier. NOTCH - Removes midrange, making the amp sound "punchy. " This switch is good for "thump and pluck" playing. BRIGHT - adds high frequency "sparkle. " GAIN - Adjusts the gain of the pre-amplifier and serves as an adjustment for the "loudness" of the amplifier. LOW - Adjusts the low part of the frequency spectrum, where the deep "fundamentals" reside. Turning up the HIGH control will add "sparkle" to the sound. GRAPHIC EQUALIZER - Allows precise adjustment of the tonal characteristics of the amplifier. LINE OUTPUTS - These two outputs are derived from the speaker outputs, and are at line level, similar to that of the EFFECT LOOP SEND jack (item D). LINE OUT includes the effects of DELTACOMP and CHORUS if selected, and can be used to drive slave amplifiers for more output. It can also be used in the studio, with proper equalization, as a recording output. SPEAKER OUTPUTS (Head Only)- Speaker connections are four ohms minimum total. The RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE HEAD is not designed for speaker loads lower than 4 ohms total. EFFECTS LOOP SEND - This jack provides an unbalanced mono output signal from the preamp at a point before the internal chorus circuits. This output can be used in conjunction with the RETURN (item E) as a patch point for external mono effects devices. The SEND can also be used to feed recording and sound reinforcement mixers a dry signal. For a signal with internal CHORUS, use the rear panel LINE OUT jack, (item C). Additionally this output can be used to drive another RIGSAFE FLYING HARDWARE as a slave amp. This is done by connecting a standard guitar cord from the SEND jack of the master amplifier to the RETURN jack of the slave. [. . . ] The CHORUS is active in the slave so that a chorused signal will be generated if selected. COVERING CARE The exclusive vinyl covering your cabinet has been especially designed for years of lasting beauty. A very light, soapy solution on a sponge may be used to remove dirt and residue that may accumulate in the fabric. Be careful not to let any liquid come in contact with operating surfaces. [. . . ]
