Rear Panel - Hughes & Kettner TubeMeister Deluxe 20 Manual De Instrucciones

TubeMeister 20 Deluxe – Manual 1.3b
Lead Boost: This switch re-voices the Lead channel to summon modern
high-gain sounds that pack plenty of punch (lights up red).
Note: Connecting a footswitch disables the front panel buttons. You can
then switch Channels and Boost via footswitch only, and the buttons
merely serve to indicate the function's status.
Bass, Mid, Treble: This is a shared voicing section that controls both the
Clean and Lead channels. Although the two channels share these common
tone controls, their separate EQ filtering circuits are voiced differently to
achieve optimum results for each channel.
Heads Up: These are classic passive tone controls that influence one
another. For example, if you crank the Mid knob, the Bass knob will be
less sensitive than when you back the Mid knob down. Boosting treble
decreases midrange honk and vice versa: jacking up the mids cuts back
on top-end shimmer. You'll find that this feature offers a staggering range
of subtle tonal variations.

FX Loop
This serial loop lets you patch in effects devices: simply connect the
Send jack to your effects processor's input and the Return jack to the
processor's output. The FX Loop activates when you insert a 6.3 mm
(1/4") plug into the Return jack.
Tip: You can also use the Send jack to tap the preamp signal – for example,
to patch it to another power amp or a tuner. Conversely, you can use
Return to feed signals into the TubeMeister's power amp. In combination
with the Power Soak and the Red Box AE Recording Out, this gives you
a powerful recording front end that offers very interesting re-amping and
sound-shaping options for just about every conceivable signal.

FOOTSWITCH
Return Channel Boost
Footswitch
This standard stereo jack plug (tip = Channel Select; ring = Lead Boost)
accepts a two-way footswitch, such as the Hughes & Kettner FS-2. Button
1 switches between the Clean and Lead channels, and button 2 switches
the Lead Boost on and off. The TubeMeister Deluxe 20 also accepts a one-
way footswitch, such as the Hughes & Kettner FS-1, for switching channels.
Tip: This port gives you another hip remote-control option: if you wish to
control the TubeMeister Deluxe 20 via MIDI, connect a MIDI switcher or
looper to this jack.

Red Box AE
Since its late 80s release, the original Red Box has been the industry
standard tool for capturing the sound of guitar amps without using
microphones. Red Box delivers unvarying sound quality at every gig or
recording session, putting an end to crosstalk with other instruments and
the hassles of experimenting with microphone placement.
The Red Box AE is the latest version of the award-winning speaker
simulator. The DSP-powered Ambience Emulation delivers a perfect mix
of authentic 4x12 cabinet ambience effects and an ultra-direct attack of
pure tube tone, capturing the signal just after the power amp stage, and
right before the power soak and speaker output. For the TubeMeister
Deluxe 20, we've added in some great new Red Box features that will
make life onstage and in the studio as easy as it can get!
Make sure the Red Box is set to the right level: Line is always the best
choice due to the higher output level. If the mixing console's XLR input
can only handle microphone levels, set the Red Box to mic. If the mixing
console or soundcard/audio interface lacks XLR inputs, you will need
an XLR to 6.3mm (1/4") jack adapter, which should be readily available
in music stores. Please make sure the Red Box is set to line when it is
connected to 6.3mm (1/4") jack inputs.
