THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING

THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING

ERICA SYNTHS ACIDBOX!

Erica Synths ACIDBOX brings you emulation of widely recognized classical Russian synthesizer

Polivoks Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF), packed in small desktop unit and enhanced with features for

contemporary electronic music performances. Erica Synths ACIDBOX sound circuit is built around rare

Russian ICs, those, that were used in the original Polivoks synthesizer back in 80-ties, therefore you get

that famous analogue sound, insane resonance sweeps and straight forward hands on control.

Erica Synths ACIDBOX is plug and play, and you must be tempted to turn it on straight away, but before

you do so, we strongly recommend to read Safety Instructions below, as well as turn this page around

and take a look on the User Manual. Made in Latvia.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please follow the instructions for use of the Erica Synths ACIDBOX below, ‘cause only this will

guarantee proper operation of the module and ensure warranty from Erica Synths.

Water is lethal for most of the electric devices, unless they are made water-

proof. Erica Synths ACIDBOX is NOT intended for use in a humid or wet environ-

ment. No liquids or other conducting substances must get into the module.

Should this happen, the ACIDBOX should be disconnected from mains power

immediately, dried, examined and cleaned by a qualified technician.

Do not expose the ACIDBOX to temperatures

above +50° C or below -20° C.

Although the module has rigid aluminum case, so you technically can

stand on it, it’s not recommended to place objects heavier than 10 kg

on the top of the instrument.

Transport the instrument carefully, never let it drop or fall over.

Warranty does not apply to ACIDBOXES with visual damages.

Due to solid build and mass of 0,7kg, you can use ACIDBOX for self-defense, but

two year warrantee applies only to the instruments that are used for the

purpose described in this User manual.

The ACIDBOX has to be shipped in the original packaging only. Any module

shipped to us for return, exchange and/or warranty repair has to be in its

original packaging. All other deliveries will be rejected and returned to you.

Make sure you keep the original packaging and technical documentation. In case

of a destroyed warranty seal, any warranty claim will be rejected.
Erica Synths ACIDBOX works from the AC power outlet, and with the purchase it is

adjusted to the voltage in your country

220V OR 110V

. The relevant voltage is indicated

on the sticker next to the AC in socket.

NEVER

plug the ACIDBOX in the power outlet

with different voltage – it will damage the electrical circuits of the module.

However, if you buy the Erica Synths ACIDBOX on the secondary

market, not from Erica Synths directly, or if you decide to move from

Europe to US or vice versa, you can easily change the supply voltage.

Just follow simple instructions below.

Use screwdriver to unscrew 4 screws on the front and back surfaces of the ACIDBOX and open

the case. Locate the power selection connector as seen in the picture! Remove the connector

from the current position (for example 220V) and connect two pins corresponding to the

desired power supply voltage (for example 110V). Close the case, fix it with 4 screws. Done!
