Connecting stereo headphones
Connect a standard stereo jack cable for a stereo headset into the HEADPHONE (AUX) port.
You can control the headphone volume in the section MENU > CONTROLS.
Connecting a microphone (MICRO 1)
Connect a dynamic microphone to the MICRO 1 input. It is a standard monophonic socket of
the combined type: you can therefore use a jack or XLR connector. The outlet is not
powered, so you cannot connect a condenser microphone. Use the GAIN MICRO knob to
adjust the gain of the input signal.
Connect a standard mono jack to MICRO OUT dedicated exclusively to the Micro output.
When connecting a microphone to the instrument, you must follow the necessary
precautions:
• Always lower the volume before connecting a microphone.
• Keep the microphone away from the speakers to avoid feedback (Larsen effect).
• When choosing a microphone, consider that cardioid polar pattern models minimize
the chances of feedback.
• Keep the microphone away from cables and power lines.
• Use robust and durable microphone stands.
• To avoid damage, remember that the speakers are the first device to be turned off
and the last to be turned on.
The microphone input signal is processed by a chain of adjustable effects, as described in the
Edit Micro paragraph.
Connecting a guitar or bass or a 2
nd
microphone
(MICRO 2)
The MICRO 2 input port is suitable for high impedance instruments such as guitar or bass.
But it can also be used to connect a second microphone.
Everything written for the MICRO 1 input applies, except that MICRO 2 in the effect chain
excludes access to the Voicetron and replaces it with INSERT effects for the VOICE parts.
