[. . . ] Use of any other adapter may damage the unit. 9) POWER CORD STRAIN RELIEF - This clip prevents the AC power cord from being accidentally pulled out. Hooking Up DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE ACOUSTIC ONE UNTIL INSTRUCTED. 1) STEREO: Connect the Left and Right outputs to a pair of guitar amplifiers or the inputs of a mixing console. If you're using guitar amps, set the tone controls flat (no boost or cut) and balance the levels between them. If you're using a console, pan the Acoustic One input channels hard left and right and turn down the high frequency EQ for best results. MONO: Connect the Left output to a guitar amplifier or input of a mixing console. 2) 3) Connect your instrument to the input of the Acoustic One. OPTIONAL: Connect a volume type or 0/+5v controller pedal to the Controller input of the Acoustic One. Make sure the pedal is connected before you apply power to the Acoustic One. Power up the Acoustic One by connecting the supplied AC adapter between the Acoustic One and a power outlet. Play your instrument and watch the Clip LED on the Acoustic One carefully as you set the Input knob. Turn up the input level until the Clip LED begins to light and back off the knob slightly. When the Input knob is set properly, the Clip LED should not flicker on the loudest passages. It is important to remember that In bypass/tuner mode, the clip LED will not light. Set the output level as desired. 4) 5) 6) Acoustic One owner's manual 7 signal processing SECTION 2 - PROGRAMMING THE ACOUSTIC ONE Navigating The Acoustic One The Acoustic One is designed to be both easy to program and flexible. The structure of an Acoustic One program is logical, and doesn't require a lot of time to master. To select Programs in the Acoustic One: DATA 1) After you power up, use the Data wheel to scroll through the Programs. As you scroll, the effect group and footswitch LEDs turn on and off. These LEDs indicate which effects are used in each Program, and which Program in the Bank is selected. There are 12 effect groupings printed on the front panel of the Acoustic One. Seven are digital effect groups (delay, reverb, etc. ) , and five cover the preamp section (compression, gate, and EQ). Each group has its own LED that indicates the status of each group. [. . . ] If a muted output is desired while tuning, press and hold the footswitch when entering bypass until the display briefly reads: OF, from this point, you can begin tuning. The tuning reference can also be set at either: E, Eb, or D from the double-dash (- -) prompt, by rotating the data wheel up or down. To exit Bypass/Tuner mode, press any footswitch. A Word About Mono Operation The Acoustic One can operate in either stereo or mono. It is important to remember that the way you connect your cables to the outputs can affect the output mode. [. . . ]
