A. INSTRUMENT - Plug your guitar in here. B. VOLUME - Adjusts the overall loudness of the instrument channel. C. TREBLE - Adjusts the high-frequency level of the instrument channel. D. MID - Adjusts the middle-frequency level of the instrument channel. E. BASS - Adjusts the low-frequency level of the instrument channel. F. FEEDBACK NOTCH - By SLOWLY rotating this knob you can fine and suppress feedback at a specific frequency. G. REVERB - Activates the Reverb effect on the instrument channel. H. STRING DYNAMICS - Controls a dynamic tone shaping filter on the instrument channel. Rotating the knob clockwise reduces high-frequency harshness when playing at high volumes while maintaining crispness when playing at lower levels. I. MIC - Plug your microphone in here. This three-pin XLR, balanced, female input connector is intended for input signals from low-impedance microphones. J. LINE/INST - This 1/4-inch TRS (Tip/Ring/Sleeve) input jack is suited for line-level equipment such as high-impedance microphones, keyboards and drum machines. It accepts both balanced and unbalanced inputs. K. VOLUME - Adjusts the overall loudness of the mic / line channel. L. PHASE - Reverses the phase of the mic / line channel useful for eliminating feedback in instruments using dual-pickup configurations. 6

M. TREBLE - Adjusts the high-frequency level of the mic / line channel. N. BASS - Adjusts the low-frequency level of the mic / line channel. O. CHORUS - Activates the chorus effect on the mic / line channel. P. REVERB SEND - Adjusts the level of the mic / line channel that is sent to the Reverb circuit. Rotating the knob clockwise increases the level. Q. RATE - Adjusts the modulation speed of the chorus effect. Rotating the knob clockwise increases the modulation speed. R. MASTER CHORUS - Activates the chorus effect on both channels. The master chorus must be on before any chorus signal will be heard. The optional footswitch, while connected, will override the master chorus select switch. S. DEPTH - Adjusts the depth (swell) of the chorus effect. Rotating the knob clockwise, increases the intensity. T. CHORUS INDICATOR - This LED illuminates when the chorus circuit is active. The LED brightness varies indicating the chorus sweep rate. U. MASTER REVERB - Adjusts the amount of overall Reverb effect in both channels. Must be turned up before any Reverb effect will be heard. V. MASTER PHASE - Reverses the phase of the Acoustasonic Junior amplifier. Useful for eliminating feedback when playing in small environments. W. POWER INDICATOR - This LED illuminates when the Acoustasonic Junior is receiving power. X. POWER - Switches the unit ON and OFF.

Rear Panel Functions
A. LINE CORD - The power line cord must be connected to a grounded AC receptacle in accordance with the voltage and frequency ratings as listed on the rear panel under INPUT POWER.
B. FOOTSWITCH - Plug-in connection for the optional remote footswitch (P/N 037659) used to switch ON/OFF the chorus effect. Using this jack will override the chorus select switch on the front panel. NOTE: Any good quality patch cord will work with the remote footswitch, however an unshielded speaker type cord is preferable to a coax guitar cord. C. RETURN - This 1/4-inch, stereo, TRS (Tip=Left, Ring=Right, Sleeve=Ground), line-level input jack is designed to accept signal from an external processing device, such as a digital delay or a chorus unit.
D. SEND - This 1/4-inch, stereo, TRS, line-level output jack is designed to feed the Acoustasonic Juniors effects bus to an external signal processing device, such as a digital delay or a chorus unit. On the Acoustasonic Junior, the tip is left and the ring is right. This jack can also be used as a line out. E. INSTRUMENT INSERT - This 1/4-inch, unbalanced, input/output, line-level phone jack is designed for use with a signal processing device, such as a digital delay or Reverb unit. A special "Y" line cord (stereo to dual mono) is required to use this TRS jack (Tip=Send, Ring=Return, Sleeve=Ground).

VOLUME
A. INSTRUMENT - Plug your acoustic guitar in here. B. VOLUME - Adjusts the loudness of the Instrument channel. C. PHASE - Reverses the phase of the Instrument channel which may reduce feedback in some situations. D. TREBLE/MID/BASS - Adjusts the tone of the Instrument channel in the high-, middle-, and lowfrequency bands respectively. E. FEEDBACK NOTCH - Rotate slowly to locate and suppress feedback at a specific frequency on the Instrument channel. Set to 1 when not needed. F. STRING DYNAMICS - Controls a dynamic tone shaping filter on the Instrument channel. Rotating clockwise reduces the high-frequency harshness of peak playing intensities or high volume settings while maintaining crispness when playing more gently. G. FX SELECT - Selects one of 16 DSP effects for the Instrument channel (see DSP Effects on page 7). H. FX LEVEL - Adjusts the level of the selected DSP effect for the Instrument channel. I. MIC - Balanced XLR input jack intended for a lowimpedance microphone.
J. LINE - Input jack intended for a high-impedance microphone, drum machine or keyboards. Accepts unbalanced (TS) or balanced (TRS) inputs. K. VOLUME - Adjusts the loudness of the Mic/Line channel. L. PHASE - Reverses the phase of the Mic/Line channel which may reduce feedback in some situations. M. TREBLE/BASS - Adjusts the tone of the Mic/Line channel in the high- and low-frequency bands respectively. N. FX SELECT - Selects one of 16 DSP effects for the Mic/Line channel (see DSP Effects on page 7). O. FX LEVEL - Adjusts the level of the selected DSP effect for the Mic/Line channel. P.
