Arahan Operasi

The Bass Micro Synthesizer features a series of slider controls divided into two main sections: Voice Mix and Filter Sweep. Experiment with different combinations to discover a wide array of sounds.

Voice Mix Controls

• PENCETUS: This slider controls the input sensitivity. Higher settings make the pedal more responsive to a lighter touch, while lower settings require a stronger attack to trigger the synth effect.
• SUB OKTAVE: Adjusts the volume of a synthesized note one octave below the original bass signal.
• GITAR: Controls the volume of your dry (unaffected) bass signal. This allows you to blend your original tone with the synthesized sounds.
• OKTAVE: Adjusts the volume of a synthesized note one octave above the original bass signal. This primarily emphasizes harmonics and adds presence, especially when playing higher notes.
• GELOMBANG PERSEGI: Controls the volume of a square wave distortion/fuzz effect, adding a gritty, synth-like texture.

Filter Sweep Controls

• ATTACK DELAY: This slider controls the attack time of the filter. Higher settings introduce a slower, more gradual filter opening, creating a bowed or swelling effect. Lower settings provide a more immediate filter response.
• RESONAN: Adjusts the Q (peak) of the filter. Higher resonance settings create a more pronounced and vocal-like filter effect.
• START FREQ: Sets the initial frequency point of the filter sweep.
• STOP FREQ: Sets the final frequency point of the filter sweep. The filter sweeps between the START and STOP frequencies.
• KADAR: Controls the speed at which the filter sweeps from the START FREQ to the STOP FREQ.

By manipulating the START and STOP FREQ sliders, you can control the direction of the filter sweep. If START FREQ is lower than STOP FREQ, the filter sweeps upwards. If START FREQ is higher than STOP FREQ, the filter sweeps downwards.

Penyelenggaraan

• Pembersihan: Gunakan kain lembut dan kering untuk membersihkan bahagian luar pedal. Elakkan pembersih atau pelarut yang kasar.
• Bekalan Kuasa: Always use the correct 9V DC (center-negative) power adapter to prevent damage.
• Storan: Store the pedal in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Sambungan: Periodically check all cable connections for wear and tear to ensure optimal performance.

Menyelesaikan masalah

• Tiada Bunyi: Ensure the pedal is powered on, all cables are securely connected, and your instrument and amplifier are functioning correctly. Check the footswitch LED to confirm the effect is engaged.
• Bunyi Lemah atau Terherot: Verify the power supply is adequate. Check instrument cables for damage. Adjust the input sensitivity (TRIGGER) and output levels.
• Unexpected Synth Behavior: Experiment with the TRIGGER and RESONANCE sliders. The TRIGGER setting is crucial for consistent synth tracking. Ensure your bass's pickups are active and producing a strong, clean signal.
