Istituisci
Requisiti di putenza
U BASSRIG Super Vintage requires a 9VDC power supply with a minimum current rating of 20mA. Use a standard 2.1mm center-negative barrel connector. Ensure the power supply meets these specifications to prevent damage to the unit.
Cunnessioni
- INSTR (Input): Connect your bass guitar or other instrument to this 1/4" mono input jack.
- AMP OUT (output): Connect this 1/4" mono output jack to your bass ampl'input di u lifier.
- DI OUT (Balanced Output): This XLR output provides a balanced signal for direct connection to a mixing console, audio interface, or PA system. It includes an analogue cabinet simulator.
- 9 VDC: Power input for the pedal.
Piazzamentu di a catena di signali
For optimal performance, place the BASSRIG Super Vintage early in your signal chain, typically after any compression pedals and before time-based effects (e.g., delay, reverb) if you are using the AMP OUT to an amplifier. When using the DI OUT, it can serve as the primary tone-shaping device before your recording or live sound system.
Cuntrolli di u funziunamentu
Pomelli
- RISULTAT: Cuntrolla u livellu generale di uscita di u pedale.
- BASSA: Ajusta a risposta à bassa frequenza.
- MIDRANGE: Controls the mid-frequency response. This knob works in conjunction with the MIDRANGE FREQUENCY cambià.
- TREBLE: Ajusta a risposta à alta frequenza.
- BLEND: Mixes the overdriven signal with your clean signal. Fully counter-clockwise is 100% clean, fully clockwise is 100% overdriven.
- DRIVE: Controls the amount of gain and overdrive applied to the signal.
Cambia
- MIDRANGE FREQUENCY (220/800/3K): A three-position toggle switch that selects the center frequency for the MIDRANGE knob (220Hz, 800Hz, or 3kHz).
- LO CUT (ULTRA HI): A two-position toggle switch. In the "LO CUT" position, it reduces low frequencies. In the "ULTRA HI" position, it boosts high frequencies.
- DI CAB SIM (FX/FX+BYP): A two-position toggle switch for the DI output.
- FX: The DI output includes the full effect and cabinet simulation.
- FX+BYP: The DI output includes the effect with cabinet simulation, but also allows a blend of the bypassed signal.
- AMP OUT EQ (LF/HORN CUT/HF): A three-position toggle switch that applies specific EQ curves to the AMP FURA.
- LF: Low-frequency adjustment.
- HORN CUT (4K/O/2K): A three-position switch within the AMP OUT EQ section, likely for cutting specific high-mid frequencies (4kHz, off, 2kHz) to tame harshness, especially when connecting to an amp with a horn.
- HF: High-frequency adjustment.
- DI GROUND (LIFT/GND): A two-position toggle switch for the DI output.
- Ascensore: Lifts the ground connection to help eliminate ground loops and hum.
- GND: Connects the ground.
Fattu di u pede
The main footswitch engages or bypasses the effect. It features buffered bypass with silent switching.

- Verify that the pedal is engaged (footswitch LED illuminated).
- Test with different cables and a different amplifier or instrument to isolate the problem.
- Rumore/Ronzio indesideratu:
- Assicuratevi chì tutti i cavi sianu schermati currettamente è in bonu statu.

- Ensure your power supply is regulated and free from noise.
- Tonu incorrectu:
- Review the settings of all knobs and switches (OUTPUT, BASS, MIDRANGE, TREBLE, BLEND, DRIVE, DI CAB SIM, AMP OUT EQ, LO CUT).
- Assicurà u MISCELA knob is not set to 100% clean if you expect an overdriven sound.
- Consider the placement of the pedal in your signal chain relative to other effects.
