FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION

Stick® INSTRUMENT INPUT: is a stereo ¼" TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) INPUT jack for use with a Stick instrument with

two pickups; Use a balanced or stereo ¼" shielded cable to connect your instrument to this Input. However, this also accepts
a mono input. When using a mono cable, signal is routed to the TIP selected by the Input Wiring Switch (see

ቤ).

A & B Input OVERLOAD indicators: are useful in monitoring pickup level and initially in setting PICKUP GAIN TRIM

controls. These indicators light approximately 4 dB before actual clipping, so occasional flickering is okay, but they should
never be allowed to light steadily.

Input wiring switch: allows choice of Input wiring. Either TIP=A and RING=B, or vice-versa.
Input INSTRUMENT GAIN trims: set the proper Gain for each pickup. Range is from 6 dB minimum to 60 dB maxi-

mum.

INVERT switches: Invert the polarity (phase) of the A pickup with respect to the B pickup. Either A or B PICKUPS may

be individually Inverted.

LOW CUT frequency: adjusts the corner frequency of the LOW CUT (high-pass) filter from 15 Hz to 250 Hz. Use to

reduce unwanted low frequencies in either A or B Pickups.

7-band graphic equalizer boost/cut controls: set the amount of boost/cut for each of the indicated bands in both Pickups

A and B. A grounded center detent guarantees flat response for filters not used.

PICKUP A OUT control: adjusts the level of the AUX OUTPUT jack. This Output is independent of the LEVEL and

MAIN OUT LEVEL controls.

PAN controls: for both PICKUPS A and B allow signal routing anywhere between MAIN OUT A and B.
LEVEL controls: for both PICKUPS A and B set the overall Level of each signal.
SEND A/B controls: adjust the amount of signal at each of the SEND jacks (to external signal processing).
RETURN control: is a “stereo” Return. Controls the amount of A and B entering the RETURN jacks.
MAIN OUT MUTE button: cuts off the signal to both A and B Main Outputs. Does not affect the Headphone Output. The

red LED indicates Muted Output.

MAIN OUT A & B LEVELS: are concentric controls used to separately set the Main A & B Output Levels.
MAIN OUT OVERLOAD indicator: monitors both A and B Main Outputs. An overload condition (within 4 dB of

clipping) on either Output causes this red indicator to light.

HEADPHONE LEVEL: controls the volume of the HEADPHONE Output jack.
POWER indicator: glows yellow when the proper power supply is connected and powered.
Headphone jack: Accepts standard stereo headphones rated from 32-600 ohms equipped with a ¼" TRS plug.
