Resumen del manual
This value is not stored with a program. HEADPHONES Jack Plug your headphones into this jack using a standard 1/4” stereo phone plug. If your headphones are 1/8”, you can find a 1/8” to 1/4” adapter in most electronics stores. The internal speaker, STEREO LINK OUTPUT and SPEAKER OUTPUT are automatically disabled when you are using headphones. Power Switch Use this switch to turn the Wildfire on and off. A program’s BASS and TREBLE values will be lost if you switchprograms without saving that program first. Be sure to save your programs! You should turn the master volume all the way down before you turn on the amplifier. This will prevent any sudden pops that could damage the speaker. Also, make sure the Power Switch is set to OFF before you connect your guitar orany other instrument tothe Wildfire. To get a real-life mikedamplifier sound in your headphones, check out the effect processor’scabinet simulator effects (page 32). A Tour of the Wildfire 3 Rear Panel All three Wildfire models offer the rear-panel features described here: Fuse Power Cord FOOTSWITCH UP/DOWN INPUTS EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT AUX INPUT STEREO LINK OUTPUT SPEAKER OUTPUT Fuse The fuse protects the Wildfire from damage caused by a defective AC outlet. If this fuse blows, you must replace it. Power Cord Plug the power cord into an AC outlet. The AC voltage required is fixed at a single voltage based on the country in which you purchased your Wildfire. The voltage is not switchable (i.e., 110/220) or universal (i.e., 90-240). Be sure to connect it to the proper voltage as indicated in the information found on the rear panel. FOOTSWITCH UP/DOWN Inputs Here you can plug in standard footswitches to use for incrementing and decrementing program numbers. The foot switches work in the same way as the Program Up and Program Down buttons. These jacks accept 1/4” plugs. EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT This input is for an optional expression pedal, which gives you the ability to control effect parameters with your foot. All effects listed in chapter 10 that have “Pedal” in their names provide this capability. See chapter 10 for a complete list of parameters. This jack CAUTION: Danger of fire or electrocution exists if the fuse is incorrectly replaced. Replace it only with the same or equivalent typeof fuse recommended bythe information found next to the fuse. We recommend that you purchase footswitches to use with yourWildfire. They aren’tvery expensive, andthey greatly streamlineyour interaction with the amplifier, particularly whenplaying live. 3 3 A Tour of the Wildfire accepts a 1/4” plug. Expression pedals may be purchased at your local Alesis dealer. AUX (Auxiliary) INPUT The AUX INPUT allows you to play along with your favorite songs! Just connect this RCA input to the output from your CD player, tape player or some other external audio device. The AUX INPUT level is fixed, but you can use the external audio device’s own volume control (for example, the headphone volume control on a portable CD player) to adjust the level of the signal coming into these jacks. When you turn the MASTER VOLUME knob, the level of this signal is affected as well. STEREO LINK OUTPUT To take full advantage of the on-board stereo effect processor, connect the STEREO LINK OUTPUT to the input of a second amplifier to create a true stereo setup. This jack accepts 1/4” TS cables. SPEAKER OUTPUT You can use the SPEAKER OUTPUT to connect the Wildfire to an external 8-ohm speaker with a 1/4” TS cable. This will disconnect the internal speaker. See chapter 9 fordetailed instructions on how to set up a stereo link between two amplifiers. The SPEAKER OUTPUT is high- voltage and can easily damage normal recording, PA, andother line-level input stages, so do not connect this output to arecording device, a PAsystem, or the input of another Wildfire. Connect it only to an 8ohm speaker. 4 4 Selecting Programs After you’ve plugged everything in, you’ll probably want to check out the factory presets we programmed into the Wildfire. This chapter shows you how to do that. To Select Programs 1. Make sure the Wildfire is hooked up properly and turned on, as outlined in chapter 2. 2. Make sure you’re in PLAY mode (turn the EFFECT knob to PLAY). 3. You can switch programs in three different ways: Program Up/Down buttons Use these buttons to increment and decrement the program number. You can hold down a button to increment or decrement programs continuously. VALUE knob You also can turn this knob to switch programs. Footswitches (not provided with the Wildfire) This is the easiest way to switch programs, especially while playing your guitar. Just plug footswitches into the FOOTSWITCH UP and DOWN inputs and step on them to increment and decrement the program number. You can hold down a footswitch to increment or decrement programs continuously. 4. Play your guitar to hear how the program affects the sound. 4 4 Selecting Programs This page intentionally left blank 18 5 Editing Programs To Edit a Select...
