• Integrated Buffer for signal preservation.
• Konsepsyon kontra enfòmèl ant ak dirab.
• Simple control interface.

3. Kontwòl ak Fonksyon

Familiarize yourself with the controls of your Sonic Super Master pedal:

• Boost Knob: This knob allows you to precisely adjust the gain level from 0dB to +12dB. Turning it clockwise increases the boost.



• Footswitch: The main footswitch engages or bypasses the pedal's effect.



• Ki ap dirije Status: A red indicator light illuminates when the pedal is active (ON).



• Buffer Shift Switch: This toggle switch activates the buffer function when the pedal is in bypass (OFF) status.



• DC 9V Antre: Connect a standard 9V DC center-negative power supply here.
• Antre / Sòti krik: Standard 1/4-inch mono jacks for connecting your instrument and amplifier/other pedals.

4. Enstalasyon

1. Koneksyon pouvwa: Connect a DC 9V center-negative power adapter (not included) to the DC 9V input jack on the top of the pedal. Ensure the power supply meets the specified voltage and polarity requirements.
2. Koneksyon Enstriman: Connect your guitar or bass to the input jack (typically on the right side of the pedal).
3. Koneksyon Sòti: Connect the output jack (typically on the left side of the pedal) to your amplifier or the input of another effects pedal in your signal chain.
4. Buffer Activation: If you wish to use the buffer function when the pedal is bypassed, ensure the "BUFFER" toggle switch is set to the ON position.

5. Operasyon Enstriksyon

1. Angaje efè a: Press the footswitch to turn the pedal ON. The Status LED will illuminate red.
2. Adjusting Boost: Rotate the Boost Knob to set the desired gain level. Start with the knob at 0dB and gradually increase it to achieve your preferred boost.
3. Bypassing the Effect: Press the footswitch again to turn the pedal OFF. The Status LED will turn off.
4. Using the Buffer: If the "BUFFER" toggle switch is set to ON, the pedal will function as a buffer even when the effect is bypassed. This helps maintain signal strength over long cable runs or complex pedal chains. If the switch is OFF, the pedal will be in true bypass when disengaged.

6. Antretyen

• Netwayaj: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the pedal's exterior. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Depo: Store the pedal in a dry environment away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

NAN. Depanaj

No sound when pedal is ON:

• Tcheke tout koneksyon kab yo (enstriman, amplaviyè, pouvwa).
• Ensure the power supply is correctly connected and providing the specified DC 9V center-negative power.
• Verify that your instrument and amplifier yo ap fonksyone byen.
• Fè tès la avèk diferan kab.

No boost effect:

• Ensure the pedal is engaged (Status LED is red).
• Check the Boost Knob position; turn it clockwise to increase gain.

• Tcheke pou bouk tè nan konfigirasyon ou an.
• Try isolating the pedal from other power sources or effects.

8. Konsèy itilizatè yo

• Pwovizyon pou pouvwa: Always use a DC 9V center-negative power supply. Using a power supply with a higher voltage (e.g., 18V) is not recommended as it may damage the pedal and is outside the specified operating parameters.
• Buffer Usage: Experiment with the Buffer Shift Switch. Activating the buffer can be particularly useful in pedal chains with many true bypass pedals or long cable runs to prevent signal degradation.
• Akeri S.taging: The Sonic Super Master can be used to push the front end of an amplifier for natural overdrive, or to boost other pedals in your chain. Experiment with its placement for different tonal results.
