manual abstract
FLANGER This creates a flanging effect that creates a sort of spinning sensation with the sound. PHASER This effect adds a variable phaseshifted signal to the direct sound, giving the sound a swirling character. TREMOLO Tremolo is an effect that creates a cyclic change in volume. SOLO This applies a boost effect to the original sound. By using a foot switch to turn SOLO on/off individually for the JC CLEAN and LEAD channels, you can vary the volume and distortion of your sound. HEAVY OCTAVE This adds sound lowered by an octave to the original sound. Since you can play chords even when using this effect, you can use it to fatten the sound of your chordal playing as well. DELAY/REVERB 12. [DELAY/REVERB] Knob Turn this knob to DELAY or REVERB to switch to that effect. Turn the knob to adjust the amount of effect applied. Set the knob to the SPRING position to enjoy the sound of a spring reverb unit. * Graduations for DELAY, REVERB on a panel are for reference. Type Description DELAY Turn the knob to change the time and amount of delay effects. REVERB Turn the knob to adjust the reverb level. 13. [POWER SQUEEZER] Switch The switch lights in red when the power squeezer function is on; the switch is unlit when the power squeezer is off. Switching on the Power Squeezer function allows you to reduce the amp’s output to 2 watts. Switching this on allows you to produce a sound that preserves the same tone and balance at an output of 2 watts, for volume levels that are more suitable for the average home. * The Power Squeezer function affects only sounds input through the INPUT jack. It has no effect on sounds input via the AUX IN jack. 14. AUX IN Jack You can connect a CD player, digital audio player or other kind of device and have it play along with your guitar. This accepts a stereo miniature phone plug. However, the speaker and RECORDING OUT/PHONES output is monaural. Use a cable (sold separately) that’s appropriate for the device you’re connecting. * Determine the volume level by adjusting the volume control of the connected device. * When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the AUX IN jack may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors. 15. FOOT SW (Foot switch) Jack You can use foot switches (optional BOSS FS-5U or FS-6) to switch channels (JC CLEAN/LEAD), and to turn EFX/SOLO on and off. * CUBE-20XL is equipped with a TRS-type FOOT SW jack that accepts plugs of the configuration shown in the figure. To connect a foot switch pedal, use a TRS-compatible cable. TIP : SELECT RING : EFX/SOLO * For details on connecting foot switches, refer to “Connections” (p. 6). * If you use a monaural cable to connect only one foot switch, it can be used to switch channels (JC CLEAN/LEAD). 16. RECORDING OUT/PHONES Jack • When Using RECORDING OUT Use mono 1/4” phone plugs when connecting to this jack. Volume level of RECORDING OUT can be easily adjusted if you set the JC CLEAN or LEAD Channel [VOLUME] knob as shown in the diagram on the right. • When Using Headphones Connect headphones to this jack. * No sound is played through the unit’s speaker while the RECORDING OUT/PHONES jack is in use. 17. [POWER] Switch This switches the power on and off. Connections Switching the Power On and Off Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices. 1. Make sure that all [VOLUME] knobs on the CUBE-20XL and all the connected devices are set to 0. 2. Turn on all the devices connected to the CUBE-20XL’s input jacks (INPUT jack and AUX IN jack). 3. Turn on the CUBE-20XL. * Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down, you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction. * This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally. 4. Adjust the volume levels for the devices. 5. Before switching off the power, lower the volume on each of the devices in your system and then TURN OFF the devices in the reverse order to which they were switched on. * If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Refer to Power Supply (p. 3). Foot switches Set the switches as shown bellow.
