:
1) Connect your instrument to input A.
2) Connect the Output to power amplifier or amplifier head.
3) Set the A/B switch so that Channel A is active.
4) Set the BASS and TREBLE controls to 12 o’clock and
the BOOST to minimum position.
5) Set the DRIVE control to minimum position and the
MIDDLE and EDGE to 12 o’clock.
6) Make sure all switches are in the outer position.
7) Connect to mixer from the Balanced XLR Output if
required.
You can now dial in two different sound on the A and B
channels respectively. By engaging the A+B mode switch you
may now dial in your basic sound on channel A, and when
selecting B you will add the B to the A channel. This is useful
for overdriven sounds and lead playing. Both LED’s will now
light.
BALANCED OUTPUT
- Is a high quality balanced output. The
balanced output functions as an interface for connecting to PA mixing
consoles or to studio or broadcast recording units.
Lifting ground is a great aid in many occasions. When required, set the
Gnd Lift switch to its’ inner position to disconnect the ground from the
output.
Note:
You cannot use the 48V phantom powering option when the
ground is lifted!
The EBS MicroBassII features a speaker simulator for the balanced
output. This feature is tuned together with a speaker cabinet in order to
send the same sound image from the preamp as heard on stage. To
activate this function press the Spkr Sim switch.
__________________________________________________________
VOLUME
- The VOLUME knob controls the output volume for the
OUTPUT and PHONES outputs. The balanced output (XLR) is not
affected by the setting of this knob.

HEADPHONES
– The headphones output enables you to use the
MicroBassII as a rehearsal amp, or to play without a poweramp/speaker
cabinet configuration. When using the headphones you should not use the
48V phantom power option due to the high power consumption.
