Configuring and using the TORPEDO

C.A.B.

1

The TORPEDO C.A.B. interface

The TORPEDO C.A.B. parameters are organized in menus accessible by different push-buttons and

knobs you will see on figure 2.1:

• Two 2-function rotary encoders: PRESET/PARAMETER, OUTPUT LEVEL/VALUE

• One push-button: EDIT/HOLD TO SAVE.

• Two selector switches: INPUT LEVEL and OUTPUT LEVEL.

• A and B programmable footswitches.

When pushing a button or turning an encoder, you will see a parameter moving on the two-line

display (item 3 in figure 2.1).

Level control

The Input selector switch (GTR for instrument level, Line for line level) controls the Input gain of the

unit. The TORPEDO C.A.B. is a digital product, it is absolutely critical to avoid any saturation of the

Input signal and avoid the risk of considerably reducing audio quality. The best signal sent to the

TORPEDO C.A.B. will be loud enough to benefit of the full dynamic range of the analog to digital

converter, without distortion.

The Input gain adjustment must be done in presence of an Input signal. The CLIP red led is on in

case of saturation at the Input stage: lower the volume of the unit plugged into the TORPEDO C.A.B.

and/or change the selector switch position.

In case you have different type of sounds that will be sent alternatively to the TORPEDO C.A.B.

(clean, crunch, distortion...), try to limit the volume difference between these different sounds.

Programmable Footswitches

The A and B footswitches are programmable. In other words, you can assign two different functions

to A and B you will activate by either a temporary, short click or a long click (hold). The factory setting

is the following:
