This function offers effective adjustment of the Silent Viola’s tone, response, etc. We recommend a setting of about “6” but please ad- r just the tone to your own personal preference. rEQ MODE Switch Used to set the equalizer to one of its two EQ MODE types. • EQ MODE 1 This mode is designed to deliver optimum tone from the instrument. We recommend that you adjust the EQ CTRL to any level you like. • EQ MODE 2 Select this mode when you want to use the tone produced directly from the pickup. This mode delivers the uncolored tone directly from the pickup.

Depending upon the type of strings and your playing style, you might want to adjust the balance of the high and low sensors. If so, please use the following procedure. 1 Remove the rubber cover located next to the POWER lamp on the rear control section of the instrument. * Do not lose this cover. 2 Use a non-conductive screwdriver (made of plastic or resin so it does not conduct electricity) to turn the balance control located inside the hole to adjust the pickup balance. Use a pair of stereo earphones as a monitor and adjust the their position so that the most natural balance between the two pickups is attained. Turn to the right (clockwise) to increase the volume of the high strings sensor (R), turn to the left (counterclockwise) to increase the volume of the low strings sensor (L). * Do not turn the Pickup Balancer control too far. Doing so may result in damage to the controller. 3 After adjustment is complete, replace the rubber cover. HINT We recommend that the sound from the LINE OUT jack be checked as well when performing this adjustment. Adjustable Range Increase the high sensor Increase the low sensor t yLINE OUT jack This jack (standard phone, monaural) delivers signal output of the Silent Viola’s tone. Use an audio cable to connect the instrument to the audio input jack of powered speakers, mixing console, cassette player, etc. to listen from external audio equipment or recording. You can also connect this jack to the INPUT jack on an electronic tuner and tune the Silent Viola like an electronic instrument using the instrument’s output signal. uPHONES jack Connect a pair of stereo earphones, etc. to this jack (stereo mini). When heard through the earphones, the viola's strings will appear to be spread out between the left and right earphones with the low strings positioned toward the left (L) channel and the high strings toward the right (R). This provides the player with a more natural sound experience when monitoring through the headphones. Make sure the L (left ear) and R (right ear) earphones are placed in the correct ears. y u • Do not operate at high volume levels when using earphones. Doing so can lead to irreparable damage to your hearing. • Before connecting the Silent Viola to any external devices, make sure that the power of all external devices is turned OFF. Set the volume level of the Silent Viola and any external audio sources to the minimum level before connecting anything. High volume settings could cause damage to the equipment and your hearing. • If a connection cord is unplugged while the power is ON, it may result in damage to the equipment. The sudden shock to your ears may be great, so please use with care. • Be careful not to step on the cord. The cord may break, equipment may be damaged, and this may cause a substantial shock to your ears. Example Connections Silent Viola Stereo Earphones Electronic Tuner P.A.
