3 The channel section
Black Spirit 200 sports four channels, each voiced very differently and accessible via a chicken-head selector switch. The power amp feedback circuit, which has a formative hand in shaping your tone, is also reconfigured during channel switching. The programmable knobs (see 2.1) afford you full access to all sound parameters on every channel. We even painstakingly fine-tuned the knobs' control ranges and characteristics to match the selected channel's voicing.
●
Input: Connect your guitar to this input using a shielded cord equipped with 6.3 mm (1/4") jack plugs.
●
Gain : The Gain knob determines input sensitivity and therefore the preamp's saturation level. Along with the Boost and Sagging controls, it is your most important sound-sculpting tool.
●
Clean Channel : Black Spirit 200's Clean channel certainly merits its name. It delivers sparkling fresh sounds and offers tons of headroom. It's worth your while to experiment with different Gain and Sagging settings in combination with the switchable Boost.
●
Crunch Channel: Your first stop for classic overdrive at its finest. This channel sweeps the sonic spectrum from clean to mean, and countless tones in between. Engage Boost to conjure a rude rock roar.
●
Lead Channel: This channel's masterfully musical compression sends those riffs and licks flying off your fingertips. Hit Boost for an extra helping of in-your-face solo sound.
●
Ultra Channel: Get your high-gain tone right here. The Ultra channel's top end slices, dices, but never sacrifices its thunderous low end for raging metal riffs and larger-than-life lead tone. Dropped tuning conjures a quasi-religious experience.
●
Boost: Boost targets specific frequency ranges in your tone and kicks them up a notch. This yields even more assertive, creamier, or punchier tone, depending on the channel.
●
Bass, Mid, Treble: The three-band voicing section's sound-shaping action is fine-tuned for each channel, and it specifically addresses the frequency ranges that define each channel's characteristic tone.
Heads Up: These are classic passive tone controls that influence one another. For example, if you crank the Mid knob, the Bass knob will be less effective than when you back the Mid knob down. Presence and
Resonance are independent of the three-band voicing controls; that is, their action remains unaffected by the other knobs ' settings.

●
Volume : Use the Volume knob to adjust preset levels and adjust their relative balance to other presets.
Heads Up: Unlike a conventional Volume control, this knob does not bring the level all the way down; it merely boosts or cuts the given level.
The 12 o'clock position is the best starting point for adjusting volume.
Caution: Please don't use this knob to control the amp's overall output level – that's the Master knob's job (see 5.17)!
●
Noise Gate: This knob controls the noise gate's sensitivity. The noise gate's IDB™ technology automatically adapts the standard attack and threshold parameters. Turning the knob all the way down (i.e. counter clockwise) bypasses the noise gate. The further you turn up the noise gate, the more aggressively it responds. Set it to 9 o'clock if you want it to open up at very soft signal levels. The further you twist the knob to the right, the harder the noise gate kicks in and cuts off signals. The noise gate's sensitivity setting can be stored within each preset.
4 The effects section
Black Spirit 200 offers three independent effects modules, with reverb, delay and modulation effects as well as the noise gate. All of them can be used simultaneously.
Heads Up: The far left knob positions of the " Reverb " , " Dly Level " , and
" Intensity " knobs bypass the given effect. Twisting those knobs counter clockwise to the far left takes the given effect module out of the signal path.
●
FX Access: In order to access Reverb, the Delay and Modulation effects, just press the FX Access button – it will start flashing. Now you are in the FX mode, and the channel control knobs now serve as effects controls. To exit the FX mode, press FX Access again. It stops flashing and you are back to the tone control mode.
●
Reverb: Black Spirit 200's digital reverb matches the warmth and musicality of classic spring reverbs. A genuine improvement over its analog ancestors, it automatically adjusts the reverb tail – the higher the Reverb volume setting, the longer the reverb time.
