Your new Acoustasonic™ Pro Amplifier delivers the

Fender tone and quality that today’s musicians

demand and re c o rding engineers have depended

on for more than 50 years. Two independent chan-

nels with their individual tone and volume contro l s

a re voiced for acoustic instruments and vocals.

The on–board Digital Signal Processor pro v i d e s

100 combinations of studio-quality effects. Four

PRESET buttons allow instant storage and recall of

favorite DSP effects. The Acoustasonic Pro pre-

s e rves the natural voice of acoustic instru m e n t s

with precision tone management tools and 160

watts of clean power. PHASE reversing switches

reduce feedback at two points in the signals path

and a pair of NOTCH FILTER controls can be used

to select frequencies at which feedback is sup-

p ressed. The AT TACK control is helpful at attenu-

ating the harshness that piezo guitar pickups

INSTRUMENT CHANNEL - (Items 1-13)

1. INSTRUMENT - Plug your guitar/acoustic instrument in

at this jack.

2. PHASE - This push button reverses the phase of the

i n s t r ument channel, useful for reducing noise associated

with dual pickup instruments.

3. TUNER ONLY - This push button mutes the instrument

channel outputs and sends the signal to the tuner jack

only for silent tune-ups. The mic channel is active while

using this feature.

4. GAIN - Adjusts the volume level of the instrument channel.

5. TREBLE - Adjusts the high-frequency level of the instru m e n t

channel.

6. MID - Adjusts the middle-frequency level of the

instrument channel.

7. BASS - Adjusts the low-frequency level of the instru m e n t

channel.

8. CHANNEL SEND - Adjusts the amount of instrument

channel signal sent to the on-board DSP effects.

9. RETURN - Adjusts the amount of DSPe f fect altered “wet”

signal mixed with the “dry” unaffected signal. Rotating

the knob clockwise increases the amount of the “wet”

signal. When the “MIC FX ON” is OFF, this knob contro l s

the wet/dry mix for BOTH the instrument and mic channels

10.ATTACK - This control is designed to attenuate the

harshness that piezo pickups produce when vigoro u s l y

s t r umming with a pick. Rotating the knob counter- c l o c k w i s e

increases the attenuation, whereas a clockwise setting

provides a more natural response for finger picking.

11.STRING DYNAMICS (Patented) - This knob controls a

dynamic tone shaping filter on the instrument channel.

Rotating the knob clockwise decreases the instru m e n t ’s

h i g h - f requency “harshness” when playing at high

volume levels while maintaining “crispness” when playing

at lower levels.

12.FEEDBACK NOTCH 1 - This control is designed to attenuate

feedback noise between 63-400 Hz in the instrument

channel. By SLOWLY rotating the knob, locate the

unwanted frequency to reduce the noise.

13.FEEDBACK NOTCH 2 - This control is designed to

attenuate feedback noise between 150-825 Hz in the

i n s t r ument channel. By S L O W LYrotating the knob, locate

the feedback frequency to reduce the noise.

5

MIC - LINE/INST CHANNEL - (Items 14-22)

14.MIC - Plug your microphone in here. This three pin XLR

balanced female input connector is intended for low-

impedance microphones.

15.LINE/INST - This 1/4 inch, TRS, balanced input jack is

suited for use with equipment having a line level output

such as high-impedance microphones, keyboard s ,

d r um machines, etc. It also accepts unbalanced TR input

cables.

16.GAIN - Adjusts the volume level of the mic/line channel.

17.TREBLE - Adjusts the high-frequency level of the mic/line

channel.

18.MID - Adjusts the middle-frequency level of the mic/line

channel.

19.BASS - Adjusts the low-frequency level of the mic/line

channel.

20.CHANNEL SEND - Adjusts the amount of signal from the

instrument channel sent to on–board DSP effects.

21.RETURN - Adjusts the amount of DSP e ffect “wet” mic/line

channel signal mixed with the “dry” overall loudness of

the Acoustasonic Pro amplifier. Rotating the knob clockwise

increases the amount of DSP effect “wet” signal. This

knob is only active when the “MIC FX ON” LEDis illuminated.

22.MIC FX ON - This LED illuminates when the instrument

channel effect and the mic/line channel effect are

independent of each other (presets 79-99).

23.PHASE - This push button reverses the phase of the

Acoustasonic Pro amplifier. It is useful for eliminating

certain noises when playing in small environments.

24.MASTER VOLUME - Adjusts the overall loudness of the

Acoustasonic Pro amplifier.

25.A U X I L I A R Y INPUT - Unbalanced phono (RCA) input jacks

designed for use with a drum machine, tape player, CD

player, etc. and can be used for playing prerecorded

music.

26.AUX LEVEL - Adjusts the volume level of the auxiliary

input.

27.POWER INDICAT O R- This red jewel illuminates indicating

the Acoustasonic Pro is receiving power.

28.DSP EFFECTS- This data wheel selects among the various

on-board DSP digital effects. These effects will only be

h e a rd if the DSP send and re t u r n knobs on the

respective channels are turned up. See the listing of DSP

effects on the next page.

between high/low volume levels. The micro p h o n e

channel supplied with phantom power, accepts two

types of input, balanced XLR for low-impedance

m i c rophones and 1/4 inch TRS (Ti p - R i n g - S l e e v e ) ,

for balanced or unbalanced, high-impedance

m i c rophones or line-level equipment. Front panel

A U X I L I A RY jacks can be used to plug in re c o rd e d

accompaniment and the TUNER switch allows

muted tuning through the instrument channel to a

suitable instrument tuner connected at the re a r

panel tuner jack. The rear panel also features two

sets of EFFECTS LOOP jacks for the connection of

e x t e rnal devices and a transformer balanced XLR

LINE OUT jack for connection to external power

amps and sound consoles. Please read thro u g h

and recall four user-assigned eff e c t s

f rom the 100 effects listed below. To

save an effect, choose a favorite

cating that the preset has been

saved. To recall a FX preset simply

p ress and release the desired button.

3 1 . SELECT - This data wheel selects

one of 100 on-board digital eff e c t s .

These effects will only be heard if

the DSP send and re t u rn knobs on

the respective channels are turn e d

clockwise above minimum.

• NOTE: When switching ON your Acoustasonic Pro amplifier, the DSP effect automatically defaults to the #1 preset.

Below is a listing of the Acoustasonic Pro ’s DSP effects. To choose among these various effects simply rotate the

select dial to the desired effect. Both the DSP send and DSP re t u rn knobs must be above their minimum positions in

o r der for any effect to be heard. Effects 00 thru 78 are identical for both the instrument and mic channels and eff e c t s

7 9 t h ru 9 9 a re diff e rent for the instrument and mic channels.
