CONTROLS AND SwITChES
Set your guitar amplifier volume on the ADIG-LB to minimum (FILTER AND
FULL RANGE) as you would normally do when using a box. To begin, adjust
the amplifier volume so that when the first chords are played, the first
two LEDs on the ADIG-LB light up (50 Watt amplifier; with a 100 W ampli-
fier, the third LED can also be flashing).
With "Filter Volume" or "Full Range Volume", you can control the devices
connected to the output of ADIG-LB. If you want to use the natural power
amp distortion of your amp, you can continue to turn it up and then of
course turn down the output level of the ADIG-LB accordingly.
VOICING
Anyone who has ever tried the different types of speakers and boxes side
by side, will confirm that they greatly influence the guitar sound. When
miking, the microphone type and placement play a crucial role. This fact
is taken into account by the ADIG-LB via a comprehensive sound control.
There are two potentiometers available in the filter channel. They can
be used to influence both the lower and the upper end of the frequency
band. With the "HIGH" control, the speaker sound can be continuously and
seamlessly adjusted from soft "MELLOW" to aggressive "BRIGHT". Of course,
without mentioning any other brands, the experienced musician will be
familiar with the terms British/California as sound categories for speak-
ers. The "LOW" control determines the box type, whereby the term "FLAT"
stands for the thinned sound of open 2 x 10" speakers, while the other
extreme "DEEP" represents the thrust of a stack with two closed 4 x 12".
In between, lies a wide area to choose from. The "COLOUR" control defines
the character of the speaker. "BROWN" is a slightly nasal and darker ba-
sic sound, while "LITE" gives a more open sound. The effect of the COLOUR
control is also influenced by the position of the HIGH control. Those who
prefer very aggressive sounds, should mix in the "FULL RANGE VOLUME" as
well; it is then necessary to activate the "HI-CUT" control, otherwise
you might get the infamous "paper cutter" sound. For extra clean sounds,
however, it is recommended to mix in FULL RANGE without activating the
HI-CUT. In this way, one can come close to the sound of an "acoustic"
guitar. Since we know from many sound engineers that they have used the
PDI-03 not only for guitars, but also for other instruments, we look
to the mixing capabilities of ADIG-LB's Filter and Full Range sounds to
create previously unimagined new possibilities for the creative sound
artist. Since every guitar/amp combination has its own unique sound, we
do not intend to come up with random example settings. Finding your own
sound should always be the top priority for dedicated musicians and sound
artists.
CAUTION!
In the built-in load box, halogen lamps are used as dynamic components.
These begin to glow visibly at continuous high levels. This light can
then be seen through the upper and lower cooling vents and also through
