6. GETTING STARTED
BOOST - To set up the Level Boost, plug your instrument into the Input jack (6), and con-
nect the Output jack (7) to your amplifier. Turn the effect on using the left footswitch (4),
making sure the LED is ON (this indicates that the effect is active). Next, adjust the Level
Boost knob while toggling the footswitch (4) on and off, comparing the volume of the
direct signal (light off) with the boosted signal (light on). Match the gain level as closely
as you can to the direct signal, then adjust the Level Boost knob to the desired amount of
added gain or cut. A suggested use of the boost is to leave it turned off until it’s time to
solo, then switch it on (4) for a quick level boost when you begin your solo. You can easily
apply this to ANY situation where you need two different, quickly accessible playing
volumes.
FILTERS - To audition the filters, first step on the right footswitch (5), making sure the LED
is ON (indicates that the effect is active) and with the filter knobs (2 and 3) in off position
(counter-clockwise). Next, dial them in gradually one at a time to discover what effect
they have, comparing the unmodified signal (light off) with the modified signal (light on)
while toggling the footswitch (5) on and off. Explore them separately first—but you may
find that using both in combination can lead to some very appealing and musical results!
