Snazzy FX TRACER CITY - Manual

TRACER CITY MANUAL:
Hello, and congratulations on the purchase of a Snazzy FX device! What you have in front of you was
designed to provide the widest range of sounds possible, while still being easy enough to use that you
can easily start making sounds right away.. But first there are some things you should know.
1. WARNING: SNAZZY FX boxes can handle a wide range of inputs. Because of this, please watch
your volume, and never start with the box on FULL VOLUME unless your amplifier, audio
interface, or mixer is turned down. There are so many different ways to set the box up and some
modes are louder than others. Just be careful, as SNAZZY FX is not responsible for any damage
you may cause to your amplifier, stereo, audio interface, speakers, or your ears. These boxes
were designed to go anywhere you might want to take them but when you are first learning how
to use them, please exercise caution.
2. The TRACER CITY has both an input GAIN and an output VOLUME. This box is capable of input
distortion (when using line signals in GTR mode) and of output overdrive. Be very careful when
setting these levels. Make sure that if you are using LINE signals that you watch where you have
the LINE/GTR switch set. Also, Be very careful with the RESONANCE and CUTOFF controls. Full
resonance and little or zero cutoff can cause very large jumps in volume which can blow speakers
or damage equipment if you are not careful.
This wide range of resonance IS on purpose as many unique sounds can be achieved with resonance at
or near max. However, when exploring such sounds it is important to turn the volume down from normal
levels.
