Set input gain – Play hard and try both normal and boost modes.
The clip/batt LED may flash occasionally.
Select an effect – Choose one of the eight delay presets.
Dial it in – Adjust the level, repeats and delay time to taste.
Bypass – Stomp the footswitch to bypass the effect.

Using Other Effects
When using multiple pedals,
we recommend connecting
them in this order, however
feel free to experiment.

Right Side Panel
Input
Plug in with a standard guitar cable to either the left or right input and the
pedal will power on. Or, for stereo operation, connect the outputs from another
stereo effects pedal to both the left and right inputs.
Note: The input for all Fishman AFX pedals is ideal for active pickups and
all soundhole pickups. For passive piezo pickups (no preamp built into the
instrument) we recommend plugging directly into an impedance-matching
preamp first to strengthen the level and maintain proper low frequency content.

Right Side Panel (continued)
Tap switch
Plug in a momentary footswitch here. The footswitch should be wired for “nor-
mally open” operation. Select the rhythm for the delay (eighth note, dotted
eighth or quarter note) and tap several beats of steady tempo with the foot-
switch. The delay will now sync with your tempo with the note length on the
presets select knob. If you move the delay time knob it will override the tempo
you just tapped.

Input Gain
This switch lets you quickly set the best operating level for your pickup. Start with
the input gain switch set to normal. When you play hard, the clip/batt LED
should flash only occasionally. If the LED does not flash with hard playing, select
boost. Typically, soundhole pickups will require a gain boost while onboard
preamp systems will use the normal setting.
The pedal is designed to automatically
maintain constant level when switching
between normal and boost positions,
so you will hear no difference in the over-
all output level when setting this control.

Left Side Panel
Output
Use a standard guitar cable to connect either the left or right output to
another pedal, amplifier or mixing board. For stereo operation, connect both
left and right outputs.

Power
Power may be supplied by either a 9V battery (battery compartment under the
pedal) or an AC adapter (sold separately). Insert a plug into either input jack,
and the pedal powers up. To conserve the battery, remove the plug(s) from the
input jack(s) when not in use.
For AC power, use the Fishman 910-R (for 110V) or other suitable 9V adapter. The
adapter must be filtered, regulated and rated for at least 200mA. It must also
accept AC power appropriate for your country. Power-plug requirements: 5.5mm
O.D., 2mm I.D., tip = negative.
Delay Spillover
Normally, when the footswitch is pressed to bypass the effect, the analog audio
path is selected and the delay is cut off abruptly. Instead, you can choose to al-
low the delay to repeat normally when in bypass by selecting delay spillover
mode. To do this, power up the the pedal while holding the footswitch until
the footswitch light flashes quickly. To revert back to analog bypass, repeat this
power-up sequence.

Controls
Level
The level control mixes the selected effect in parallel, adding as much or as little
delay as you want in addition to your direct sound. This means that your tone is
preserved while the effect is blended into it.
Repeats
Turn clockwise to increase the number of echoes you hear. When set to full, you
can create a continuous loop.As a rule of thumb, use fewer repeats for repeti-
tive rhythmic accompaniment. More repeats generally work well with single
note lines, arpeggios and intense echo effects.
Delay time
This control lengthens or shortens the time between the direct sound and the
echo. The range of delay time is variable up to 300ms for the short delay, up
to 1.5 seconds for medium and up to 2.9 seconds for the long delay. Note:
When the tap switch is in use, it overrides the delay time setting until the
delay time knob is moved. For best results, always tap quarter notes and use
the presets to set up your rhythmic setting.
