5.2 Eff ects

Compact 60
The has a built-in (internal) digital eff ect
3
processor, with the select-switch you can choose between
4 diff erent eff ects:
1 = reverb 1 (short)
2 = reverb 2 (long)
3 = delay (281 ms)
4 = chorus
The efx-level-control determines the intensity of the inter-
nal eff ects (left stop = no eff ect).
Furthermore an additional eff ects unit (external eff ect)
may be connected to the
use the send and return sockets on the rear side of the
amplifi er (send goes to input, return to the output of
the external eff ects device). The intensity of the eff ect is
adjusted at the external eff ects unit.
With the efx-pan control the diff erent eff ects are blended
with the original signal. The efx-pan works as follows:
left stop: internal eff ect on channel 1
external eff ect on channel 2
mid position: internal eff ects on channels 1 + 2
external eff ects on channels 1 + 2
right stop: internal eff ects on channel 2
external eff ects on channel 1
Eff ect No. 3 is replaced with a Delay
with 213.5 beats-per-minute .
(This corresponds to 281 ms delay time)
In contrast to the standard-Compacts,
the eff ects are also on DI out .

5.3 Footswitch

A standard double-footswitch (on-/off -switch) can be
plugged into the footswitch-socket on the rear side of the
amplifi er via stereo cable. By this footswitch the internal
and external eff ects can be switched on and off .
5.4 Phantom power
Microphones requiring 48 V-phantom power can be
connected to the XLR-socket of channel 2 directly. Factory-
provided phantom power is activated but, if required, may
be deactivated by an internal jumper.
In contrary 9 V-phantom power, if required, can additio-
nally be activated in channel 1 by an internal jumper.
Please note: For both alterations the device must be
opened, therefore only qualifi ed service personnel may
carry out the modifi cations concerning the de-/activating
of phantom power.

General Note:
Use of 48 V or 24 V phantom power
(Phantom power = remote supply, here: pow-
ering an audio device via the connected audio
line)
Turn on the phantom power only if the unit
connected to an XLR socket that is designed to
handle it!
In general, suitable units are e.g. condenser
microphones, active DI-boxes and other special
audio devices, whose power supply is drawn
from the phantom power. Such devices are also
labelled accordingly; please heed the permissib-
le power consumption (max.10mA).
High-quality dynamic microphones with a ba-
lanced signal need no phantom power, but can
handle it anyway.
Other devices, which have not been designed
explicitly for phantom power operation, can suf-
fer from considerable malfunctions and damage
may result as well.
Examples of devices that may be damaged
by incorrect application of phantom power
include:
Low-cost dynamic microphones with a mono
jackplug (unbalanced signal) that were fi tted
afterwards with an XLR connector.
Audio devices with a balanced XLR output (e.g.
DI-boxes, eff ects devices, instrument preamps
with a DI output etc.) which are not protected
against phantom power applied to their XLR
output. (The DI connectors on AER products are
protected against applied phantom power.)
Other audio devices (such as preamps, eff ects
pedals etc.) whose unbalanced line output was
replaced by an XLR socket.
If in doubt please consult the manufacturer of
the device you are using.
We wish you lots of fun playing your Compact 60 !
