Use only the supplied power adaptor or power cord. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or local power company. 2. Never break off the ground pin on the power supply cord 3. Never attempt to bypass the fuses or fit ones of the incorrect value. 4. Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may ‘expose you to dangerous voltage points or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel 5. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as when the power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally or has been dropped. 6. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for the safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet 7. Never use an amplifier in damp or wet conditions. 8. The power supply cord should be unplugged when the unit is to be unused for long periods of time. 9. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and at the point where they exit from the apparatus. 10. Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND HEED ALL WARNINGS KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS |a OVERVIEW We are delighted that you chose to purchase our 15 Watt combo: MIGHTY 15SE. MIGHTY 15SE is a solid 15W digital guitar amplifier that gives you the ultimate playing experience! By using a 32bit DSP, 44.1 KHz/24bit AD/DA converters and our TSAC (True Simulation of Analog Circuit) technology, MIGHTY 15SE delivers realistic guitar amp and quality EFX sounds. The preamp was developed to accurately simulate the way an all-tube amplifier interacts with a loudspeaker. Four-modulation and two-ambience effects are built in. Useful functions, such as a built in tuner, MP3/CD, AUX IN inputs and MIXER/PHONES: outputs make your practice and show perfect! 8 inch custom speaker and 15W of power create a very powerful amplifier that's portable enough for road or use ina studio.a MAIN FEATURES Seven amp sounds using TSAC(True Simulation of Analog Circuit) technology. ‘Cutting edge tube clipping simulation algorithm *Three band vintage style EQ gives the response of a tube guitar amp Four modulation effects: chorus, flanger, phaser & tremolo Delay and reverb effects can be used with modulation effects simultaneously. ‘Built in tuner *MP3/CD and AUX IN inputs allow jamming with an external music-playback device (MP3 player, etc.) MIXER/PHONES output. ©15W RMS power output #8 inch custom speaker.FRONT PANEL INPUT Plug your guitar into this jack. VOLUME This knob controls the CLEAN channel's volume. At low settings the sound will be very clean with a solid-state amp ring GREEN LED Lights up to indicate the CLEAN channel is active. Lights up to indicate the pitch is flatin tuning mode. CHANNEL SELECT BUTTON This selector lets you switch channels by pushing the button. You can confirm which channel is selected by LED above the button. NOTE: Press this button and hold for 2 sec, the tuning mode is enabled, the sound is muted. Press this button again to exit BLUE LED Lights up to indicate cab-simulation function is enabled, and the pitch is correct in the tuning mode. RED LED Lights up to indicate the DRIVE channel is active. Lights up to indicate the pitch is sharp in tuning mode. GAIN Rotate this knob to determine the amount of distortion in the DRIVE channel LEVEL Rotate this knob to control the DRIVE channel's volume level TYPE SWITCH You can select from the following six types. When the tuner function is on, you can use this to select the name of the string to be tuned © TWEED: This is modeled after the classic American blues sound amplifier. The amplifier's four 10-inch speakers produce a clear upper-midrange with a fat low end, and its unique crunch tones make it a favorite of blues-rock guitarists. © PLEXI: This is modeled after the sound and response of a legendary UK classic stack birthed in 60's. It's renowned for its tight low end, and smooth presence for classic and hard rock. BRITISH: This is modeled after the British class-A combo amp that created the Liverpool sound of the 60's. It can produce a clear low-midrange with tight low end, © MODERN: This is modeled after the American modern high gain amp. This super high gain amp is favorite for lead sounds or 80's metal @RECTO: This is modeled after the 90's High gain amp which has more low end and shimmer presence! It is capable of producing metal, grunge, and a wide range of rhythm and lead sounds @ METAL: This is modeled on the famous metal pedal created in 90's. It can produce tons of bottom-end and shocking upper-midrange 4a FRONT PANEL EQ SECTION The BASS, MID and HIGH knobs affect both channels. MID and HIGH influence each other, a character considered normal and desirable in a tube amp. Boosting HIGH decreases midrange honk and vice versa. Jacking up the MID cuts back on the high-end shimmer. EFX SECTION CHORUS/FLANGER/PHASER/TREMOLO KNOB Turn this knob to chorus, flanger, phaser, or tremolo to select the corresponding effect. Turn the knob to adjust the amount of effect applied. The red indicator beside this knob lights up when EFX is turned on, and goes out when EFX is turned off. e@CHORUS AChorus adds a short delay to your signal. The delayed signal is modulated in and out, of tune and then mixed back with the original signal to create a thicker sound @FLANGER AFlanger uses the same principle as a Chorus but uses a shorter delay time and adds regeneration (or repeats) to the modulating delay. This results in an exaggerated up and down sweeping motion to the effect. @PHASER A phaser splits the incoming signal, and then changes the phasing of the signal. This signal is then taken in and out of phase and mixed back in with the original signal. As the phasing changes, different frequencies get canceled resulting in a warm sort of twisting sound. © TREMOLO A Tremolo is basically a change of the signal level controlled by an LFO. NOTE: Graduations for CHORUS, FLANGER, PHASERAND TREMOLO ona panel are for reference. Be sure to check the sound as you adjust the effects DELAY/REVERB KNOB Turn this knob to DELAY or REVERB to switch to that effect. Turn the knob to adjust the amount of effect applied The red indicator beside this knob lights up when DELAY or REVERB effect is turned on, and goes out when the effect is turned off. In DELAY, indicator will flash according to delay time by setting of TAP button. @DELAY ADelay is an effect that records a portion of the incoming signal, and then play it back along time later. The recording can repeat just once or several times. The delay time can be set by tapping the TAP button! @REVERB Reverb simulates sounds produced in an echo chamber by creating a large number of echoes that gradually fade or decay. Just like playing in a hall or a room. NOTE: Graduations for DELAY and REVERB ona panel are for reference. Be sure to check the sound as you adjust the effects.a FRONT PANEL TAP BUTTON Tap on the TAP button a few times to set the delay time. Hold this button for 2sec, the BLUE LED lights up to indicate the cab-simulation function is active POWER SWITCH This switches the power on and off. TUNING 1.Press and hold CHANNEL for 2 seconds. When the GREEN LED starts to flash, you are in tuning mode. 2.Use the Type switch to select the name of the string you want to tune, and then play an open string.
