1) INPUT Connect your guitar to this input using a standard ¼” shielded instrument cable.
2) BOOST The +10 dB boost control with the right gain setting, it lets you change from a clean sound to an overdriven or distorted sound.
3) GAIN This knob sets the gain level, and is the preamp’s most powerful control. It not only determines the amount of drive or saturation
(for getting clean, crunch or overdriven sounds, or anywhere in between), but also plays an important role in tone shaping.
4) BASS
This knob controls the amount of low frequencies in your sound. When you’re starting to explore sounds on the amp, avoid
boosting the lows too much as this can reduce your attack and muddy your sound—especially as you turn up your gain.
5) MIDDLE
The Middle control regulates the midrange frequencies and is an important part of your tone shaping. The frequency range
it boosts or cuts has a big effect on the character of your sound. For a more scoopy tone, lower the mids. Turn the knob up for more focused
attack and better pitch definition.
6) HIGH
The High knob controls the amount of high frequencies in your sound. It can produce unwanted noise (hiss) or pickup feedback
when really cranked, so it’s best to avoid extreme settings.
7) MASTER
This control is the master feed from the end of the preamp channel to the tube power stage. It allows you to obtain a wide range
of sounds/colours in relation to the gain setting—for example, very low gain sounds at high volumes, or high gain sounds at low volumes.
8) POWER
This switch delivers AC power to the amp. Make sure the unit is grounded; all three terminals of the AC power plug must be
connected to avoid any injury to the user or damage to the unit. DV Mark amps and combos are manufactured to be used in the country where
they have been sold, and are factory preset to that country’s voltage. So make sure you’re sending the correct voltage to your amp before you
connect it to AC power.
