FOOT SWITCHES
BYPASS FOOTSWITCH
:
Turns the effect on or off. The LED is lit
when engaged and will modulate to the LFO rate in a triangle wave shape
regardless of LFO switch shape. A switch inside the ACV-1 is user
selectable for true bypass or buffered bypass.
TRUE BYPASS / BUFFERED BYPASS:
If you carefully remove the 4 screws holding the cover on to the back of
your ACV-1 you will see a bypass setting switch underneath the jack board
on the edge of the PCB. This is the ONLY user accessible option on your
ACV-1.
Do not adjust any of the carefully calibrated factory set trim pots.
Use the switch, on the left side of the jack board, to select true bypass
(Default – switch to the outside of the enclosure) or buffered bypass
(switch towards the inside of enclosure). In true bypass when the effect is
not engaged the input is coupled directly to the output and does not pass
through any electronics. If you have loading, tone or noise issues from long
cable runs select buffered bypass to use the internal JFET as a simple
buffered output with approximately 4K ohm output impedance. Buffered
bypass may have a slight gain loss depending on the impedance match.
This is normal.
