User manual PEAVEY BASIC 40

[. . . ] If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. Government's Occupational and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise level exposures: Sound Duration Per Day In Hours 8 6 4 3 2 1 1/2 1 1/2 1/4 or less According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. [. . . ] (3) The wire that is colored brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or the color red. (2) REMOTE SWITCH CONNECTOR This 8-pin DIN connector is provided for the connection of the PFC 3 footswitch (not included). The footswitch cable should be connected before the amp is powered up. This stereo jack allows signal to flow to both sides of any stereo headset. Be sure to use a high quality shielded instrument cable to connect the guitar to the amplifier. Controls the volume level of the Clean channel and is not affected by the Lead, Pre or Post Gain controls. The Pre Gain can be used to control the distortion level in the Lead channel. To obtain more distortion simply increase the Pre Gain and set the Post Gain (9) to the desired volume level. The final level adjustment should be made after the desired sound has been achieved. This switch allows you to instantly change the voicing to reflect the tones of modern and vintage amplifiers. The VINTAGE position changes the overall function of the EQ and adds a hint of brightness to emulate some classic amp designs. The following steps explain the creation and storage of two different effects/settings, as well as two different settings for Delay/Reverb. The MODULATION LED (22) may be illuminated or dark at the discretion of the user. Select Flanger and adjust rate to preference using the EFX ADJUST (14) control on the front panel (standard adjustment). Press and hold the EFX ADJUST (14) control while adjusting Flanger depth to preference with the REVERB (15) control on the front panel (tweak). The MODULATION LED (22) will illuminate or go dark depending on its status in step 5. Select Octaver and adjust wet/dry mix to preference using the EFX ADJUST (14) control on the front panel (standard adjustment). The DELAY/REVERB LED (24) may be illuminated or dark at the discretion of the user. Adjust reverb to preference using the REVERB (15) control on the front panel. The DELAY/REVERB LED (24) will illuminate or go dark depending on its status in step 10. RECOMMENDED SETTINGS NOTE: Tone settings given are general recommendation and will vary depending on make of guitar and type of pickup.
