FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
LEAD VOLUME: Controls the Lead channel volume. Experiment with different combinations of the Drive and Volume
controls to achieve different sounds. Reducing the Drive while increasing the Volume will result in a warm, open,
overdriven sound as the power amp is driven harder, while reducing the Volume and increasing the Drive will give a tighter,
more modern sound with more distortion. Once set, try using your guitar's volume controls to interactively adjust tone and
distortion levels. Use the low power input socket to push the output stage hard (settings 7-10) at quieter practice levels.
CHANNEL SWITCH & LEDs: Switches between the Lead and Clean/Rhythm channels. LEDs indicate currently active
channel.
CLEAN/RHYTHM SWITCH & LED: This switch activates the Clean mode on the Rhythm channel. When operated, the
Clean Volume control becomes active, while Rhythm Gain (9) and Rhythm Volume(12) are removed from the signal path.
When using clean mode, the preamp gain is lowered, resulting in a cleaner tone. LED indicates that Clean mode is active.
CLEAN VOLUME: Use this to control the volume of the amplifier when using Clean mode. The amp can still be driven to
overdrive with the control turned fully clockwise, and can be driven harder by using the Pre-Boost.
RHYTHM GAIN: As Lead Gain (3).
CLEAN/RHYTHM EQ CONTROLS: As Lead EQ Controls (4).
CLEAN/RHYTHM EQ PULL SWITCHES: As Lead EQ Pull Switches (5).
RHYTHM VOLUME: As Lead Volume (6).
This Tone control works in a similar fashion to the Tone control you probably have on your guitar except that it
uniquely works at the other end of the amplification chain. This has the ability to not only control the overall top end
response but also reduce upper harmonics on the output stage and preamplifier overdrive sounds. This will give you bright
cutting sounds at high settings and smooth rounded sounds at lower settings. Midway (0) is a good starting point.
REVERB: Controls the level of the built in Laney-designed digital reverb.
POWER SWITCH: Main power switch for the unit.Tube amplifiers take between 30 seconds to 2 minutes to warm up and
be ready to play after switching on, this is normal.To turn on, flip the switch to 1 (up).
POWER LAMP: This will illuminate when the power switch is operated, indicating the presence of mains power within the
amplifier.
DYNAMICS: This allows control over the response of the amplifier at lower frequencies. Turning this control clockwise
gives a looser low end, while lower settings provide a tighter response.The optimum setting is dependant both on the
speaker cabinet and/or the volume level being used.
