AMP FOR ALL SEASONS:
The
Bass Advanced Tube Technology Amp / Preamp possesses a versatile array of
jacks making the BATT at home in every conceivable situation, be it stage, studio,
or practice. You can connect it to any speaker cabinet directly and use it as a
practice amp head. You can connect it directly to a mixing console or multitrack
recorder and use it as a studio quality bass preamp. You can connect it to a power
amp and bass cabinet, using it as a live preamp. Or you can add it to an existing
bass rig. (The BATT with its Advanced Tube Technology will breathe life into any
sterile amp!)
SPEAKER OUT:
the SPEAKER OUT jack on the rear
panel of the unit is specially designed for
direct connection to any desired speaker
cabinet. The built-in 5 watt valve power
amp (EL 84) is more than adequate for
home practice or accompaniment. Like
the signals for the other outputs, the
SPEARER OUT can be switched to PRE
or POST power amp: it delivers the same
level whichever option is selected
PA OUT:
for connecting to the stage box during
live gigs where a PA system is being used.
The PA OUT signal delivers a constant
LINE LEVEL SIGNAL and is therefore
unaffected by the MASTER pot setting.
However, gain, tone control and boost
functions are still operative. When the
TUBE / BYPASS switch is in BYPASS
position, the PA OUT jack receives no
signal, thus making it convenient to tune,
or change basses.
