A. INPUT - Plug your bass in here.
B. PASSIVE/ACTIVE - Selects pickup type (sensitivity):
PASSIVE - normal (full input sensitivity)
ACTIVE - pre–amplified (low input sensitivity)
C. GAIN - Adjusts the preamp signal level. Use together with
MASTER VOLUME {L} to set the overall amplifier
loudness. Watch the PRE AMP LEDs to determine the
optimal GAIN setting:


PRE AMP CLIP - Indicates preamp clipping
(distortion). Occasional flashing is normal at peak playing
intensities – reduce GAIN if unwanted distortion is heard
while this LED is on.
PRE AMP SIGNAL - Indicates the presense of
sufficient signal strength. Constant illumination is normal
at moderate playing intensities – increase GAIN and/or
instrument volume if this LED is off or only flashing.
D. ROOM BALANCE - Rotate clockwise for treble emphasis
to compensate for soft acoustic surfaces (carpet/drapes).
Rotate counter–clockwise for bass emphasis to
compensate for hard acoustic surfaces (cement/tile).
E. ENHANCE - Boosts low and high frequencies.
OFF - Useful for finger–style bass playing
ON - Useful for slap–style/deep–tone bass playing
F. BASS/TREBLE - Adjusts tone in low/high frequency
bands respectively.
G. SEMI-PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER - Adjusts
tone in three variable frequency bands. Each
FREQ knob selects the center of frequency
range that the LEVEL knob below adjusts.
NOTE: The EQ has no effect when all LEVEL
knobs are set to “0.”
H. EQ GAIN - Adjusts the signal level of the semi-parametric
equalizer circuit when active ( EQ ON). Useful for
setting a balance between EQ on and off volume levels.
I. EQ ON/OFF - Switches the semi-parametric equalizer
on/off as indicated by the LED.
J. COMPRESSOR - Compresses the dynamic range of the
signal to smooth volume peaks and increase sustain.
Rotate fully counter-clockwise to disable the compressor.
K. MUTE - Disables all amplifier outputs except for TUNER
OUT. LED flashes when MUTE is active.
L. MASTER VOLUME - Adjusts overall amplifier loudness in
conjunction with GAIN {C}. Watch the PWR AMP LED to
determine the optimal MASTER VOLUME setting:


PWR AMP CLIP - Indicates power amp clipping
(distortion). Occasional flashing is normal at peak playing
intensities. Reduce MASTER VOLUME if unwanted
distortion is heard while this LED is on.
M. POWER - Switches the unit on/off as indicated by the LED.

PLEASE NOTE: Your 800 Pro is shipped with adhesive rubber feet for non-rack mount applications. Remove feet
prior to rack mounting.
O. PARALLEL SPEAKER OUTPUTS - Connect one of four
speaker configurations to meet the 2–ohm minimum load
requirement using any combination of 4–pole Speakon®
and 1/4" output jacks:
1) one 2–ohm speaker
2) two 4–ohm speakers
3) one 4–ohm and two 8–ohm speakers
4) four 8–ohm speakers
P. IEC POWER SOCKET - Connect only the supplied special
high-capacity power cord to a grounded AC receptacle in
compliance with the voltage and frequency ratings
specified on the rear panel of your amplifier.
Q. EFFECTS LOOP - (1) Ef
fects Loop - Connect SEND to the
input of your effects device and the output of the effects
device to RETURN. (2) Multiple Pr
o™ Amps - Connect
SEND on the primary unit to RETURN on the auxiliary unit.
The primary unit controls all auxiliary units.
R. FOOTSWITCH - Connect the included footswitch to
enable remote on/off switching of the semi-parametric
equalizer. NOTE: When connected, the footswitch
overrides EQ ON/OFF {I} on the front panel.
S. TUNER OUT - Connect your bass tuner to enable inline
instrument tuning (see MUTE {K}).
T. GROUND LIFT - Disconnects the LINE OUT {V} ground
connection (pin-1) which may reduce noise levels.
GROUNDED (normal) GROUND LIFTED
U. LINE OUT LEVEL - Adjusts the output level of the LINE
OUT jack.
V. LINE OUT - Balanced XLR jack for output to sound
reinforcement/recording equipment.
W. PRE/POST EQ - Supplies the LINE OUT jack with the
signal either before or after it is processed by the
tone/equalization circuits.
PRE (tone/EQ bypassed) POST (tone/EQ active)
