Quick Start

1. Connection

1) Carefully read “Important Safety

Instructions” before you place

the amp in the location where

you’ll be using it. Then use the

included power cable to connect

the rear panel AC inlet to an AC

outlet of the correct voltage for

your unit.

Fig. 1

2) Please note that the sound, and the low frequency response in particular, will

be affected by the location in which you place the amp.

3) Connect your electric bass gui

-

tar. Use a shielded guitar cable

to make connections.

Fig. 2

4) If you are using a compact ef

-

fects processor, use a shielded

cable to connect it between your

bass guitar and the amplifier.

Fig. 3

5) Make sure that each Volume

control is set to “0”, and then

turn on the Power switch, the

power LED will light.

Fig. 4

2. Using the controls

1) Raise the volume control of your bass guitar.

Fig. 5

2) Raise the Level control to approximately 11 o’clock and set

EQ and HUE controls at 12 o’clock.

Fig. 6

3) Raise the Master volume to somewhere between 7 and 12

o’clock.

Fig. 7

4) You can choose bright or normal mode by switching the Bright switch. Set the

Bright switch off for now.

5) Try using the Hue control. This is a passive tone control. When you turn it to the

left, the sound becomes warmer and fatter with a more pronounced bottom

end. If you turn it to the right, it becomes clearer, brighter and more transpar

-

ent. You can determine the overall color of your sound by using this control

without experiencing distortion problems that an active EQ might cause.

6) Using the 3-band equalizer: Try the settings shown in the illustration. When

you turn up the EQ, the output volume level will rise. If you don’t want distor

-

tion as a result, turn down the Level or Master control accordingly. Fig. 8

Fig. 9

ENGLISH

7) Try pushing in the Shape switch. You will in-

stantly get mid-scooped sound. This sound

enables slapping and popping bass styles.

Fig. 9

8) The SWX100 and SWX65 models have a Tweeter switch function. Turning it on

or off will add or decrease the high-end brightness and attack of your bass

strings.

Tips for using Master and Level controls (SWX100/65/35)

When the Level control is at a lower setting, the preamp will be cleaner and less

compressed. If you continue to raise the Level control, the signal will get more

compressed. The Master is a post- auto-compression circuit, while the Level con

-

trol is a pre-auto-compression circuitry. The Level simultaneously controls the

compression threshold as it changes volume. The Master controls preamp output

level to the power amp. Turning up the Level, EQ or Master controls together may

distort your bass sound. (This also depends on your bass guitar output level and

your style of playing.)

When you see the Auto-Comp LED flashing, the auto-compression circuitry is

strongly compressing the preamp signal to keep your sound un-distorted and the

level flat.

14. Bright Switch

This enhances brightness of the input signal when it is pushed in.

15. Shape Switch

This enhances bottom and high-end by scooping mid-range frequencies when

it is engaged.

16. Auto-Comp

SWX’s pre-amplifier signal level is controlled by the Auto-Compression circuit.

The SWX35, 65 and 100 are equipped with a LED which flashes blue. When a

signal from pre-amp is high, the limiter circuit compress the signal and is indi

-

cated by the flashing blue LED. Though SWX20 does not have the LED, it is

equipped with this circuitry as well.

17. Level Control

This controls the level of the pre-amp. Hint: Balancing Level and Master controls

can create many different sound and tone textures. EQ, Bright switch and

Shape switch will also affect the amp volume level. Adjust the level using this

control.

ENGLISH

18. 3 Band EQ

Bass/Middle/Treble controls. Refer to the spec sheet at the end of this manual

for frequencies and levels.

19. Hue Control

This controls the overall color of your bass’ tone.

20. Master Control

This controls not only bass guitar signal level to power amp but also CD/MP3

gain level.

21. Direct Out Connector

This is a direct out connector for connecting to

your recorder or PA system. The polarity is as

shown in the diagram.

22. Pre/Post EQ Switch

This selects the point within the preamp circuit from which the Direct Out signal

will be taken. With the “PRE” setting, the signal is taken directly from the input,

and the amp controls will not affect the sound in any way. With the “POST” set

-

ting, the signal is taken from after the effect return, so that all controls other than

“VOLUME” will affect the signal. Regardless of this setting, the signal from the

CD input is never sent from DIRECT OUT.

23. GND Lift switch

The setting of this switch specifies whether pin 1 of the direct out connector will

be connected to the electrical ground of the SWX100 itself. If your equipment is

connected in a complex way and a ground loop is causing hum, using this

switch to disconnect the ground will reduce the hum.

24. CD/MP3 In jack

This is an RCA pin jack. It is designed to be connected to the headphone output

of a portable CD or MP3 player, or similar device. Use an RCA plug cable to

make connections. Use the volume control of your portable CD player to adjust

the volume.

25. Tweeter switch

This switches the built-in tweeter on/off.

26. Power switch

This switch turns the power on/off. When you are not using the amp, please

leave it turned off.

27. Power LED

This LED will light when amp power is activated by power switch.

28. Headphones out jack

This is a stereo 1/4" jack that outputs a monaural audio signal.

*

Troubleshooting

First check that your shielded guitar cable, speaker cable, and power cable are

connected correctly. If possible, use a tester to check the cable or try using an

alternate cable or amp to verify your cable’s condition.

1. The power supply cannot be switched on.

• Check that the power cable has been connected correctly.

• Try plugging it into a different socket and see if the same problem occurs.

2. The power supply can be switched on, but no sound is

heard.

• Check that the bass guitar has been connected correctly.

• Remove any external components connected to the effects loop and between

the bass guitar and the amplifier and check to see if any sound is heard.

• Use a different shielded cable and check to see if any sound is heard.

• Check to see if the volume on the bass guitar is set to “0”.

• Use a different bass guitar and see if any sound is heard.

• Check to see if the volume on the amplifier is set to “0”.

• Check to see if the headphones are connected.

3. Noise is heard.

• Check to see if anything in the immediate vicinity is resonating or banging

against the amplifier to produce the noise.

• Check to see if the plug cover on the shielded cable is loose.

• Make sure that the action (string height) of your bass guitar is set correctly.

• Use another bass guitar, effects or other external components, and cable to

see if the same noise is produced.

4. No sound when you connect a CD/MP3.

• Make sure that the volume of the CD/MP3 player is not turned to 0.

• Make sure that the cable is connected correctly.

• Try using another cable and see whether any sound is heard.

5. The CD/MP3 sounds wrong.

Does the cable you’re using have a stereo plug? Could you be using a monaural

plug?

6. No sound is produced in the headphones.

• Check that the headphones are connected correctly.

• Connect another set of headphones and see if sound is produced.
