[. . . ] MIDI PROGRAMMABLE TUBE GUITAR PREAMP USER'S MANUAL HUSH ® licensed by May be covered by one or more of the following: U. S. Patents #4538297, 4647876, 4696044, 4745309, 4881047, 4893099, 5124657, 5263091, 5268527, 5319713 and 5333201. Foreign patents pending. PRECAUTIONS NOTE: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS SECTION TO PROVIDE YEARS OF TROUBLE FREE USE. All warnings on this equipment and in the operating instructions should be adhered to and all operating instructions should be followed. [. . . ] Turning this control one step (or one "click") will display the current value for the MID level control without changing the current value. (9) MID FREQ control: This control determines the mid band frequency that the MID -/+ control will adjust. (10) TREBLE level control: This control adjusts the amount of high band information in the Piranha output for the current preset. Turning this control one step (or one "click") will display the current value for the TREBLE level control without changing the current value. (11) GAIN level control: This control adjusts the amount of gain applied to the input signal for the current preset. Turning this control one step (or one "click") will display the current value for the GAIN level control without changing the current value. (12) LEVEL control This control is used to adjust the output level of the current preset. Turning this control one step (or one "click") will display the current value for the LEVEL control without changing the current value. (13) OUTPUT LEVEL control: The OUTPUT LEVEL control increases or decreases the overall output level of the Piranha independent of the LEVEL control. (14) INPUT DRIVE control: This control is an adjustable gain stage which feeds the input of the tube stages, and allows for input level adjustment when switching between guitars which provide different output levels (i. e. switching from a guitar with passive single-coil pickups to a guitar with active humbucking pickups). The INPUT DRIVE control also determines the maximum amount of distortion that a preset can have, as higher levels of input drive will result in a higher potential distortion level. Conversely, presets can also be globally "cleaned up" by reducing the input drive level. (15) INPUT jack: This standard unbalanced jack is used to provide input to the unit. For convenience, the Piranha provides both front and rear panel mounted input jacks. Rear Panel (1) INPUT jack: This standard unbalanced jack is used to provide input to the unit. For convenience, the Piranha provides both front and rear panel mounted input jacks. (2) LOOP SEND jack: This standard 1/4" mono jack provides a post-distortion output to the input of the first device in the effects chain. (3) LOOP MIX control: This control determines the amount that the effected (loop) signal is mixed with the dry (direct) signal. It can be set from 100% dry (no effect signal) to 100% wet (no direct signal). (4) LEFT LOOP RETURN jack: This standard 1/4" mono jack accepts the left output from the last device in the effects loop chain. (5) RIGHT LOOP RETURN jack: This standard 1/4" mono jack accepts the right output from the last device in the effects loop chain. [. . . ] Reinitialize only the controller information for the instant access switches and pedals using a reinitialization code of "231". Set the Operating Mode to "REMOTE". When operating in Remote mode with a Piranha, switches 1-10 act as normal preset switches, while switches 11-14 provide specific functions, as illustrated below. 14 6. Special Functions Some Piranha functions are available which require special instructions to access. These functions include Factory Preset Reinitialization, Continuous Controller mode and MIDI Preset Dump/Load, and are discussed in this section. A. [. . . ]
