User manual MARSHALL EFFECT PEDAL RF-1 REFLECTOR

[. . . ] However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. · Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. [. . . ] Always use 9V regulated DC supply with centre negative rated at 80mA or above. Although it may seem obvious the first action in achieving a good effected sound (be it duration / compression etc. ) is to find the perfect bypassed sound. This will then allow the correct level to be set with the effect unit to allow a cut or boost in volume and a realistic tone. On clean channels it is advisable to set the gain (or volume) to a setting of no less than one quarter maximum so as not to get unrealistic results due to any volume dependent tonal shaping on the amplifier preamp. Features 1. 'In' Jack Socket This is the input jack for connection to your guitar or to the output of another effects pedal when linking pedals together. 2. 'Expression' Socket An expression pedal can be connected to this socket to control the decay time. Moving the pedal overrides the reverb time setting on the pedal allowing you to increase/decrease the control as you perform. 2 3 ENGLISH 3. 'Out 1 / Left' Jack Socket - Passive Bypass Out 1 is connected to a passive bypass circuit. The passive bypass ensures complete tonal integrity by disconnecting the output of the effects circuit when not in operation. When a jack is connected to Out 1 the pedal operates in mono mode. 6. Reverb Time Controls the decay time of the reverb tail from no tail (fully anti-clockwise), providing just the initial sense of space, to full decay (fully clockwise), providing long reverb tails trailing off into the modelled space. 4. 'Out 2 /Right' Jack Socket - Spill-Over Out 2 is connected to a spill-over circuit. When the pedal is switched off the reverb tail it has produced is allowed to 'spill' and naturally decay over your playing while the input feeding the effects circuit is switched off. When a jack is connected to Out 2 the pedal operates in mono mode. When jacks are connected to Out 1 & Out 2 the pedal operates in Stereo mode, the input is dispersed over the stereo field creating an even more spacious reverb. No spill-over is present when the pedal operates in stereo mode. 7. Damping Controls the amount of high frequencies that are reflected within the reverb. Fully clockwise all the high frequencies are reflected creating a bright vibrant reverb. [. . . ] The reverse mode creates ghostly textures as your notes spill backwards out into space, rushing up to your face before melting off into the distance. 9. Foot Switch For switching the Reflector on and off. 10. LED Indicates when the Reflector is in operation. 11. [. . . ]
