Proper cooling will prolong the life of your amp. -Place the amp on a stable platform where it is not exposed to mechanical shocks and temperature extremes which may damage the amp or endanger the safety of bystanders. -Hughes & Kettner is not liable for damages due to improper use. ENGLISH ATTAX-MANUAL 1.0 CHANNELS The tube circuitry of the ATTAX 100 is based on the innovative, award-winning sound technology first popularized in the TubeMan. Each of the three channels drive the ECC83 twin triode tube stages differently to achieve unique sounds with markedly different characteristics. CLEAN: The ECC 83 preamp tube delivers classic clean sounds for rich, glassy single-note lines and crisp chord work. At higher VOLUME knob settings, the "SoftClick" circuitry produces the soft clip of a vintage tube amp. The loudest setting where the sound is still totally clean depends on the impedance of your instrument's pickups. Generally, the loudest undistorted setting for the CLEAN channel will have roughly the same volume as the CRUNCH channel at maximum gain. CRUNCH Blues sounds a la carte! This channel covers the entire sound spectrum from clean to overdrive. It is extremely dynamic. Its attack response enables you to control overdrive levels via your guitar's volume pot. At higher gain settings, your tone is carried by lengthy sustain, ideal for a stinging blues tone with dramatic dynamics. LEAD 1 + 2: This channel delivers direct, in-your-face rock sounds. Switch to the LEAD 2 mode for a completely different tonal character - even more bottom end, compression and sustain -in other words, the distinctive performance characteristics of contemporary tube amps, ideal for modern lead playing and heavy-duty power chord riffing. REVERB: The ACCUTRONICS ® 3-spring reverb is renowned for its excellent sound quality and warm tone. In the signal chain, the ATTAX 100 reverb section is located after the FX loop so you can use it for external effects and still achieve a clean reverb sound. Additionally, the reverb level automatically adjusts its own level when you switch between channels, more for clean, less for lead. 2.0 JACKS AND CONTROL FEATURES CRUNCHCLEAN CRUNCHSTAGE BOARD HIGHLOW INPUTS BASS -5 0 +5 MID 0 5 10 CRUNCH 0 5 10 CLEAN VOL -5 0 +5 STAGEBOARD: Input jack for the included Stageboard (footswitch pedal). YELLOW CRUNCH LED: Indicates the CLEAN / CRUNCH SELECTOR SWITCH setting. The LED illu- minates when the CRUNCH channel is active. EQ SECTION: Common BASS, MID and TREBLE controls for the CLEAN and CRUNCH channels. MID and TREBLE controls influence each other, as is standard in tube amps: if you boost the treble, the mids are cut and vice versa. This sound-shaping feature allows you to dial in a wide variety of subtle tonal variations. LOW INPUT: Low impedance input jack for guitars featuring humbuckers or active electronics. It can also be used to achieve a cleaner signal. HIGH INPUT: High impedance input for passive pickups/single coils. It can also be used to achieve more distorted signals. CRUNCH: Controls the CRUNCH channel's input sensitivity and subsequent- ly its distortion level. CLEAN VOL: Controls the volume level of the CLEAN channel. Depending on your instrument's pickups, the amp will begin to clip somewhere around the 12 o'clock setting (SoftClick). CLEAN/CRUNCH SELECTOR SWITCH: Activates either the CLEAN channel or the CRUNCH chan- nel. Once the MSM-1 Module has been installed, this switching function can be executed via MIDI.
