[. . . ] · The amp also includes a headphones out that you can use when playing during nighttime hours and when making sound checks. High-Quality Digital Effects · Includes three types of stereo chorus: "SPACE, " whereby the chorus is synthesized in actual space; "RICH, " in which the amount of the effect is applied separately in each frequency range; and "WIDE, " which provides an enhanced sense of expansiveness using discrete frequency bands. · Includes stereo reverb developed especially for acoustic instruments, which gives a sense of spaciousness and natural body to the sound. · Also features a delay effect developed especially for acoustic instruments, which produces a soft, tuned sound. · Furthermore, you can connect an optional foot switch and use it to turn these effects on and off. Convenient Placement Features · Includes an "folding stand" that allows you to change the angle of the amp when using it for monitoring purposes. · It also includes a "speaker stand adapter, " which allows you to attach the AC-33 to a speaker stand. This makes using the AC-33 easier when you are performing standing up, and allows you to use the amp as a simple PA. · Also included is a carrying case for greater portability. Anti-Feedback Suppresses Feedback · Anti-feedback features two ways to detect the feedback point, using the "Manual settings, " or the "Auto settings, " which allow the feedback point to be detected automatically. · You can connect an optional foot switch and use your foot to operate this feature. 6 Names of Things and What They Do Control Panel fig. 010 12 3 6 7 8 9 10 11 16 17 45 1. INPUT (GUITAR CHANNEL) Connect guitars here. 12 13 14 15 18 3. SHAPE button Setting this to ON modifies the midrange to create a bright tone suitable for strumming chords. This emphasizes brushing sounds, allowing you to strum with a more edgy feeling. (MIC/LINE CHANNEL) Connect mics and line-level devices here. Turning the chorus on and off with the foot switch works on both channels. 11. CHORUS knob You can switch between the three types of chorus (SPACE, RICH, and WIDE) by setting this knob. You can adjust the amount of effect applied by changing the position of the knob. * The markings indicating the SPACE and RICH positions are approximate. Listen to the sound to confirm the effect as you make adjustments. (MIC/LINE CHANNEL) This adjusts the volume of the MIC/LINE channel. 7. Turning the knob to the right (clockwise) emphasizes the feeling of body in the sound. SPACE This is a spacially synthesized chorus. With spacially synthesized chorus, a method available only in stereo, the chorus effect is created by taking the sound from the right speaker, from which the effect sound is output, and the sound from the left speaker, which outputs the direct sound, and then mixing them in the actual space. This creates a greater lateral spread than that produced when the sounds are mixed electronically, providing a more natural sense of breadth. 8. Turning the knob to the right creates a fatter sound when melodies or individual notes are played. 8 Names of Things and What They Do RICH This is a stereo chorus that is divided into three frequency ranges. Here, the effect is separated into three bands, low-frequency, midrange, and high-frequency, and by applying the most suitable amount of chorus effect in each range, it provides a sense of fullness and breadth that is perfectly suited to the acoustic guitar. The low end is firmly in the center, and sound spreads out more and more as the sound rises from the midrange up through the higher frequencies. fig. 031 MANUAL * Turn the knob to "OFF" if you are not using anti-feedback. 14.
