Basic understanding of the SUB-BLASTER and its opera-
tion will result in the ability to use each of the sounds
that the unit can produce. Dont be afraid to experiment
with all of the controls -“ a little time spent with the SUB-
BLASTER will enable you to use the unit to its fullest
capacity.
The Direct control adjusts the amount of unaffected
signal added to the output. The gain structure of the SUB-
BLASTER is designed so that maximum headroom is pre-
served throughout the direct signal path.
The Octave control adjusts the amount of octave
effect added to the output. Tracking accuracy has been
greatly improved over other octave pedal designs.
On a five string bass, better results will be obtained by
fretting the note on the B (fifth) string, fifth fret, rather
than playing it as an open E on the fourth string.
The tracking will be maximized in the middle of the neck
by using the neck or rhythm pickup. Tracking will still
function well in all ranges with the bridge pickup, but for
optimum results the neck pickup is recommended.
