q Master Volume
Turn the Master Volume control all the way down to the minimum
before connecting/disconnecting a cable. When a cable is connected to
the r Output Jack, the LED located inside the Master Volume lights
green for one second, then the Atmosfeel™ feature will be turned on.
The output level can be adjusted by turning this control to the right
(clockwise) to increase the level, or to the left (counterclockwise) to
reduce the level.
w Mic Blend
Adjusts the level of the sound picked up with the microphones installed
inside the body. Turning this control to the right (clockwise) enhances
the body resonance and spaciousness of the sound. Adjusting this does
not change the output level.
NOTE
Feedback might occur depending on the usage conditions. Use the w Mic
Blend or the e Treble EQ to adjust the sound.
e Treble EQ
Adjusts the level of the high frequencies. Turning this control to the
right (clockwise) gradually boosts the higher frequencies. Turning it to
the left (counterclockwise) gradually cuts them.
r Output jack/battery holder
The output jack and battery compartment are combined into a single
unit. Inserting a plug into the output jack switches the internal preampli-
fier on. To prolong the life of your battery, unplug the cable from the
output jack when not in use.
