Bruksanvisning

The THE PROPHET DIGITAL DELAY pedal features intuitive controls for shaping your delay sound. Familiarize yourself with each control:

Kontroller:

• TIME-ratt: Controls the delay time, determining the interval between repeats.
• MIX-ratt: Adjusts the blend between your dry (unaffected) signal and the wet (delayed) signal. Turn clockwise for more delay effect.
• REPEATS Knob: Controls the number of delay repetitions (feedback). Higher settings result in more repeats.
• SUBDIVISION Switch: A three-way toggle switch that selects the delay subdivision:
  • 1/16: Sixteenth note delay.
  • 1/8: Eighth note delay.
  • 3/8: Dotted eighth note delay.
• FOTKOPPLAARE: Engages or bypasses the effect. This pedal features True Bypass for preserving your guitar's tone when the effect is off.

Användningstips:

• For subtle ambiance, set the MIX knob to a lower position and REPEATS to a moderate level.
• To achieve rhythmic delays, synchronize the TIME knob and SUBDIVISION switch with the tempo of your music.
• Experiment with high REPEATS settings and the TIME knob to create self-oscillating, experimental sounds.

Underhåll

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your pedal:

• Rengöring: Använd en mjuk, torr trasa för att rengöra pedalens utsida. Undvik slipande rengöringsmedel eller lösningsmedel.
• Lagring: Förvara pedalen på en sval, torr plats, skyddad från direkt solljus och extrema temperaturer.
• Strömförsörjning: Always use a compatible 9V DC, center-negative power supply. Incorrect power can damage the unit.
• Anslutningar: Kontrollera regelbundet alla kabelanslutningar för slitage. Se till att uttagen är fria från damm och skräp.

Felsökning

If you encounter issues with your pedal, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Inget ljud:
  • Kontrollera alla kabelanslutningar (gitarr till ingång, utgång till amp).
  • Se till att strömförsörjningen är korrekt ansluten och fungerar.
  • Verify the pedal is engaged (LED illuminated).
  • Testa med olika kablar, gitarr och amplifer för att isolera problemet.
• Svagt eller förvrängt ljud:
  • Check the MIX knob setting; ensure it's not set too low or too high, causing signal clipping.
  • Ensure your guitar's output and amplifier's input levels are appropriate.
  • Kontrollera kablarna för skador.
• Oönskat brus/brum:
  • Använd en högkvalitativ, isolerad strömförsörjning.
  • Ensure proper grounding of your equipment.
  • Keep the pedal away from power transformers or other sources of electromagnetic interference.
