Opsætningsvejledning
Follow these steps to properly set up your Pigtronix Gamma Drive pedal:
1. Strømtilslutning
Connect a standard 9V DC power supply (not included) to the "DC 9V" input jack on the top of the pedal. Ensure the power supply is center-negative and provides at least 10mA of current.

2. Instrumenttilslutning
Connect your instrument (e.g., guitar) to the INPUT jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
3. Amplivligere forbindelse
Tilslut OUTPUT-stikket på venstre side af pedalen til din ampliferens indgang ved hjælp af et andet standard 6,5 mm instrumentkabel.

Operation
The Pigtronix Gamma Drive features four primary control knobs and a footswitch for intuitive sound shaping.
Kontrol overview
Figur 4: Forside view of the pedal showing the layout of the control knobs.
- BIND: Controls the overall output level of the pedal. Turn clockwise to increase the volume.
- GEVINST: Adjusts the amount of overdrive and distortion. Higher settings produce more saturated and aggressive tones.
- DISKANT: Shapes the high-frequency content of your tone. Turn clockwise for brighter sounds, counter-clockwise for warmer tones.
- BAS: Controls the low-frequency content. Turn clockwise to add more bass, counter-clockwise to reduce it.
Brug af fodkontakten
The large footswitch at the bottom of the pedal engages or bypasses the effect. When the effect is active, the LED indicator above the footswitch will illuminate. When bypassed, your signal passes through the pedal unaffected (true bypass).
Vedligeholdelse og pleje
- Rensning: Brug en blød, tør klud til at rengøre pedalens overflade. Undgå slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler.
- Opbevaring: Opbevar pedalen et køligt, tørt sted væk fra direkte sollys og ekstreme temperaturer.
- Magt: Always use a regulated 9V DC power supply with the correct polarity (center-negative) to prevent damage.
- Forbindelser: Ensure all cables are securely connected before use. Disconnect cables when not in use to prevent accidental damage.
