User manual FENDER KXR 200

[. . . ] Channel four is also equipped with a channel volume control, an effects send control and a reverb send control. In addition to the features mentioned above, each channel also possesses an independent effects loop insertion point on the rear panel. This feature makes the KXR 200 even more versatile. The KXR 200 is also equipped with a master section which contains a master volume control, an effect return control, a reverb return control, an effects send jack, an effects return jack, and a line-out portion comprising of a 1/4 inch and XLR jacks. [. . . ] All the controls and jacks operate in the same manner as those in channel 1. When not in use, it is best to turn the channel volume, the effects send and the reverb send controls all the way down to avoid any amplification of unwanted noise. Likewise, when not in use, the equalizer sections should be kept flat ( i. e. all knobs should be set at 12 O'clock). CHANNEL 4 - This channel operates in the same manner as the other three channels, but with the addition of a few extra features: The XLR jack and an extra band in the equalizer section. With the vocalist in mind, the balanced, low impedance XLR jack provides a suitable connection for a microphone. Furthermore, the four-band equalizer was designed around the D.

With each control providing 12dB of boost or cut, and centered about 125, 320, 1000 and 3200 Hz. If needed, this channel could also be used for another instrument. MASTER VOLUME CONTROL - This control adjusts the level of the signal coming out of the preamplifier section. This control is used in conjunction with the Channel Volume controls to set the overall sound level of the amplifier. In order to maximize headroom and minimize noise, instruments with low-level output will require a high Channel Volume setting and a low Master Volume setting, while other instruments may require a lower Channel Volume and higher Master Volume setting. It is recommended that the Master Volume control be set as high as possible for maximum DELTACOMPTM compressor range. EFFECTS RETURN CONTROL - This control adjusts the level of the signal coming into the power amplifier section from external effect devices. This is the master control for all the Channel Effects Send controls. If not in use, it is recommended that this control be set at 0 to avoid amplification of any unwanted signal. REVERB RETURN CONTROL - This control adjusts the level of the reverb signal coming into the power amplifier from the reverb bus. The input to the reverb circuitry is the sum of the individual channel reverbs. When not in use, it is recommended that this control be set at 0 to avoid amplification of any unwanted signal. L. PEAK LED INDICATOR - This LED comes on when excessive signal levels are being sent to the power amplifier. It illuminates on signal peaks that cause clipping (distortion) with DELTACOMPTM not activated, or for signal peaks that cause DELTACOMPTM to reduce level (DELTACOMPTM active). [. . . ] The line cord should be connected to a suitable power source, in accordance with the voltage and frequency as shown by the power rating on the rear panel. NOTE: DO NOT BLOCK THE AIR FLOW TO THE REAR PANEL; FOR EXAMPLE, BY BACKING THE AMPLIFIER UP AGAINST A WALL. The rear panel contains a heatsink that needs air flow to cool off the amplifier. Blocking the air flow may result in equipment failure due to excessive heat building up inside the chassis. [. . . ]
