    P AGE 2 First familiarize yourself with the layout of the Front Panel and locate the Lead / Rhythm switch on the right side of the chas sis, next to the Standby Switch. This toggles you between the top (Rhythm) Channel and the bottom (Lead) Channel. If you don’t have the Rhythm/Lead Footswitch connected, this switch will activate the channel swit[...]

    P AGE 3 probably a good time to mention that most of the great sounds can be found by setting the GAIN Control moderately , especially i n the LEAD Channel. For example, somewhere between 2 thru 6 In the RHYTHM Channel try setting this control somewhere between 3 thru 8 . Use of moderation here will reduce the likelihood of pesky tube microphonic p[...]

    sounds in this channel. In the LEAD Channel, try setting the BASS Control somewhere between 3 and 6 . These settings will vary with the amount of Gain and T reble you have dialed up.

    NOTE: When trying to use your DC-3 at extremely low volume levels it will be necessary to reduce the far left Gain control. Once the Masters and Output Levels has been reduced to roughly 1.5 , reducing the Masters or Output Level below this point causes phase interaction that prevents a clean signal from passing through this circuit junction. If yo[...]

    P AGE 6 This toggle calls up one channel or the other and can take the place of the Channel Select footswitch when there isn’t one hand y. Perfect for set breaks... this toggle switch also serves an even more important purpose. In the Standby position the tubes are at idle so that during power up they may warm up before being put to use. Before P[...]

    P AGE 16 V oltage and current are NOT the same. Current is the AMOUNT of electricity , the “quantity” — and is measured in amperes. V olt age is the degree of electric charge — like the “pressure” to use the old water analogy . Let me illustrate how dif ferent voltage and current are: When you scrape your feet across a carpetted floor i[...]
