In order to get the most out of your new amplifier, we strongly  
urge you to go over the information contained in this user’s guide  
before you begin playing.  
1. INPUT: Connect your bass here by means of a shielded instrument cable.  
2. VOLUME: Use this control to adjust the overall output level of the amp.  
And thank you for choosing Crate.  
3. HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high frequency output level. Rotating the con-  
trol counterclockwise reduces the high frequency output, rotating the control clock-  
wise increases it.  
4. LOW: Use this control to adjust the low frequency output level. Rotating the control  
counterclockwise reduces the low frequency output, rotating the control clockwise  
increases it.  
5. COMPRESSOR: Use this control to adjust the amount of signal compression -  
rotating the knob clockwise increases the effect. Compression is a dynamic sonic  
effect that smoothes the output level regardless of how hard or softly the strings are  
played. The compressor circuit will remove harshness without affecting the tone.

6. CD INPUT: Use these RCA jacks to connect an external source (such as a CD play-  
er, tape player or rhythm machine) to the amplifier. The signal at these jacks is summed  
into a mono signal which is sent to the internal power amp circuit. Use the external  
source’s output level control to adjust the signal for the proper mix with your instrument.
