Front Panel - SWR Sound WorkingPro 10 Instrucciones De Funcionamiento

Congratulations on your purchase of an SWR WorkingPro 10 combo
amplifier! You now own the famous SWR tone, power, clarity, and
true full-range response that's made SWR the choice of profession-
als for over twenty years. Your WorkingPro 10 combines the best
SWR features:
• The famous preamp designed by original engineer Steve W. Rabe
• The Aural Enhancer™ and Active EQ controls
• Bass Intensifier™ circuit—simultaneously boosts and compresses
specific frequencies to add pure low-end thickness to your bass
sound
• New Wedge EQ specially designed for amp "tilt-back" operation
A. INPUT—
Plug your bass into this jack using a
shielded instrument cable.
B. MUTE—Disables all audio output except EFFECTS SEND
{O}, TUNER OUT {R}, and HEADPHONES {N}. Use during:
instrument changes, tune-ups and when using head-
phones. The LED indicates when MUTE is on.
C. MASTER VOLUME—Use to set the loudness output from
your speakers (and headphones) after all other levels are
set, including any external effects. MASTER Volume will
affect the BALANCED OUTPUT {S} and the UNBALANCED
LINE OUT {Q} levels when DIRECT/LINE {S} is set to
NOTE: Select DIRECT when you do not want MASTER to
affect the signal level output to equipment, such as when
recording or performing.
D. AURAL ENHANCER—Featured on just about every SWR
amplifier since the company's inception in 1984, the Aural
Enhancer delivers that famous SWR Sound! It brings out
the fundamental low notes of the bass guitar, enhances
the high-end transients, and reduces specific frequen-
cies that mask the fundamentals. This provides a more
transparent sound, particularly when slapping and pop-
ping and also gives "active" bass characteristics to passive
basses (when set at "2 o'clock" or positions further clock-
wise).
How the AURAL ENHANCER Works: Think of it as a vari-
able tone curve that changes depending on where you
set the AURAL ENHANCER control knob. As you rotate the
control clockwise from the "MIN" position, you are elevat-
ing low– mid– and high–frequencies different than those

Since our founding in 1984, SWR has served one purpose—to pro-
vide bass amplification products with professional quality, tone,
features and power delivery for players of all levels and styles. We
sincerely thank you for choosing SWR, and remain committed to
helping you Amplify Your Future™.

advantage of the full potential of your WorkingPro amplifier!
of the active tone controls.
about the "2 o'clock" position, a favorite of many players
because it brings out the low-end fundamentals and crisp
highs plus lower midrange to help cut through the band.
However, if you go further clockwise past the "2 o'clock"
position, the mids centered around 200 Hz will start to
drop off. From this point on, the effect becomes much
more pronounced. However, the curves involved here are
gentle, as opposed to the extreme curves you can create
by boosting or cutting the active tone controls.
Most significantly for basses, the AURAL ENHANCER™ will
help bring out the fundamentals of your lower registers
without masking them with overtones, as is possible
when using the BASS control only. At the same time, it
opens up the sibilance characteristics of all instruments
without being harsh.
E. BASS INTENSIFIER—Exclusive SWR tone circuit that
integrates low-frequency boost with a smooth, fast-act-
ing compressor. This provides a radical increase of specif-
ic bass and low-midrange frequencies without the usual
side-effect of overdriving the amplifier circuitry. This
literally intensifies the bass tone in your sound! Use it for
the heavier sections of a song, or as part of your overall
preferred sound.
