  • LUACH: Controls the overall output level of the pedal. Turn clockwise to increase the volume.
  • GAIN: Adjusts the amount of overdrive and distortion. Higher settings produce more saturated and aggressive tones.
  • TREBLE: Shapes the high-frequency content of your tone. Turn clockwise for brighter sounds, counter-clockwise for warmer tones.
  • BAS: Controls the low-frequency content. Turn clockwise to add more bass, counter-clockwise to reduce it.

A 'cleachdadh an Footswitch

The large footswitch at the bottom of the pedal engages or bypasses the effect. When the effect is active, the LED indicator above the footswitch will illuminate. When bypassed, your signal passes through the pedal unaffected (true bypass).

Cùram agus cumail suas

  • Glanadh: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the pedal's surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Stòradh: Stòraich am pedal ann an àite fionnar, tioram air falbh bho sholas dìreach na grèine agus teòthachd anabarrach.
  • Cumhachd: Always use a regulated 9V DC power supply with the correct polarity (center-negative) to prevent damage.
  • Ceanglaichean: Ensure all cables are securely connected before use. Disconnect cables when not in use to prevent accidental damage.
