Once you?ve ensured correct voltage and speaker connection, set the Master
Volume control to minimum (fully counter-clockwise). Set the tone controls
to the center position (12:00 or 0). Turn the Enhance controls to the
minimum position. Set the Input Gain controls to the minimum (fully
counter-clockwise). Set the Compressor to the OFF position (fully counter-
clockwise). Make sure the Dynamic Boost switches are OFF. This will set
your amplifier up flat and with the Compressors disengaged. Next, plug in
the power cord to the AC inlet on the back of the unit. Use only a safe
grounded receptacle for proper operation at the correct voltage for your
country. Double check to make certain your amplifier is set for the correct
voltage in your country and that your speakers are connected properly.
A Note on Channel Switching - The WT1205 features two separate
channels, both with full control sets. You can plug a different bass into each
channel or use a single bass and switch between channels to get two
different tones. To do this, plug your bass into channel two (Master
Channel) and use the front panel switch or footswitch to select the proper
channel.
Turn On - Once you?ve completed the steps above, you can plug in your
bass and turn on the unit (plug it in first, ok?) and let?s get started. We
recommend turning your system on with the Master Volume control set to
its minimum position. This will prevent any unexpected signal from being
sent to your speakers.
Setting Your Level - Remember, begin with the Input Gain, Enhance,
Compressor and Master Volume completely OFF - fully counter-clockwise.
All EQ should be set flat, that is, at 12:00 - straight up.
While playing your lowest note (or loudest), slowly turn the Input Gain up
until the Clip light begins to blink with regularity. If you have disengaged
the Compressor as we suggested, the Clip light will barely blink on your
loudest notes when you reach clipping in the Input stage. We recommend
you decrease gain one or two clicks to ensure there is no clipping in the
system. The Clip light should never come on while playing. By the way, this
is David?s favorite way to set level, even if you intend to use compression.
Once you have properly set your Input Gain, turn the Master Volume up to a
comfortable listening level and proceed with the rest of the setup process.
