Rocktron Velocity 300 - Manual (Page 7)

This switch powers up the Velocity 300.
This control determines the volume level for Channel 1.
This control determines the amount of Reactance for Channel 1. As this control is turned clockwise,
the simulated output impedance is increased and the Velocity 300 will increasingly exhibit the
characteristics produced by the interaction between a tube amplifier and a guitar speaker cabinet.
When turned fully counterclockwise, the simulated output impedance is at a minimum.
This control determines the level of DEFINITION for Channel 1. Turning this control fully counter-
clockwise bypasses the Definition circuit, while turning it fully clockwise provides maximum
Definition. See section called "DEFINITION" later in this manual for more information on this
feature.
This is the "POWER" LED. When the Velocity 300 is "ON" the LED will be lit or "ON".
When switched to “BRIDGED” on the back of the unit (see section marked Velocity 300 Back Panel
for more information on the Bridge/Stereo switch on the back panel) the Velocity 300 operates as
a mono unit with increased output power (Channel 2 becomes inoperable in this condition). In
the "BRIDGED" position the LED will be "ON". When "STEREO" is selected via the back panel
switch the "BRIDGE" LED on the front panel will not be lit and the Velocity 300 will operate as a
normal stereo amplifier with 150 watts per channel or side.
This control determines the volume level for Channel 2.
This control determines the amount of Reactance for Channel 2. As this control is turned clockwise,

2. VELOCITY 300 Front Panel
This standard ¼” jack provides an input to Channel 1 from the output of your preamp or the last device
in your effects chain. This jack is used as the input jack when operating the Velocity 300 in “bridged”
mode.
This standard ¼” jack provides an input to Channel 2 from the output of your preamp or the last device
in your effects chain. Use this jack and Channel 1 input jack when running in stereo.
Note: This jack is inoperable when using the Velocity 300 in “BRIDGED” mode ( BRIDGED
switched to “BRIDGED” and the LED is "ON" on the front panel).
These standard ¼” jacks provide outputs for Channel 1 to speaker cabinets. Do not connect these outputs
to a load of less than 4 ohms (or less than 8 ohms in mono-bridged mode). These jacks are used when
using the Velocity 300 in “BRIDGED” mode.
These standard ¼” jacks provide outputs for Channel 2 to speaker cabinets and are to be used when
running your system in "stereo". Do not connect these outputs to a load of less than 4 ohms (or less than
8 ohms in mono-bridged mode). These jacks are inoperable when using the Velocity 300 in “BRIDGED”
mode.
This switch allows for easy setup between 115VAC and 230VAC.
Warning: Improper setting of this switch may cause the unit to fail. Make sure the switch setting matches
the local AC mains voltage.
This switch allows you to switch between "STEREO" and "BRIDGE" modes. When "STEREO" is
selected the green LED on the front panel will be lit. When "BRIDGE" is selected the red LED on
the front panel will be lit. Select "STEREO" if you would like to run your set up in Stereo. Select
"BRIDGE" if you would like to run your system in mono. Follow the "CONNECTIONS" guide later in
this manual for more information."
This module provides a connection for the power cord and also houses the main fuse of the unit. (For
information about changing the fuse, see page 8).
