AC15VR FRONT PANEL FEATURES

1. MAINS POWER SWITCH

Turns your AC15VR OFF/ON from the connected mains

power.

2. POWER LED

Illuminates RED when your amplifier is switched on, and is

also connected to a suitable mains power supply.

MASTER

3. VOLUME

This controls the amount of volume produced by the

AC15VR’s Valve Reactor power amplifier circuit, and there-

fore the overall volume that your AC15VR supplies to any of

the loudspeaker systems that are connected.

4. REVERB

This controls the amount of digital reverb that is mixed with the

direct signal to produce a slight shimmer of reverb (low set-

tings) to concert hall depth (at high settings).

The built-in digital reverb can be cancelled or activated by the

optional VFS2 Dual Footswitch. (Channel-Reverb)

5. TREBLE CONTROL

This controls the amount of TREBLE in your sound.

6. BASS CONTROL

This controls the amount of BASS in your sound.

OVERDRIVE CHANNEL

7. VOLUME CONTROL

This controls the amount of overdrive generated by the pre-

amp signal that is sent to the AC15VR’s Valve Reactor power

amplifier. Use this to set the loudness required for your use,

and also to balance the overdrive sound against your clean

(Normal) sound.

8. CHANNEL SELECT LED

Illuminates RED when the Overdrive channel is selected.

9. GAIN CONTROL

This regulates the amount of preamp “gain” and therefore the

amount of overdrive or distortion that is generated by the

Overdrive Channel. Like the Normal Volume control, lower

settings mean less distortion, higher settings mean much,

much more distortion!

10. OVERDRIVE STYLE BUTTON

This button changes the distortion characteristics (STYLE) of

the Overdrive channel—OUT=OD1, IN=OD2.

OD1 is a warm natural “vintage” overdrive flavour, ideal for

“blues” based sounds.

OD2 is a harder, more aggressive, high gain style distortion,

more suited to “modern” playing.

11. CHANNEL SWITCHING BUTTON

This button controls whether your amplifier is set for Normal or

Overdrive—OUT = NORMAL, IN = OVERDRIVE. Your

AC15VR can also be channel switched by using the optional

VFS2 Dual Footswitch (connected via the back panel Foot-

switch Jack). This function can only be operated when the

front panel switch is “IN” position.

When the Normal channel is selected, the LED is not illumi-

nated—when the Overdrive channel is selected, the Red LED

is illuminated.

NORMAL CHANNEL

12. VOLUME CONTROL

This controls the volume of the clean (NORMAL) channel. At

lower settings the sound will be very clean and bright, at

higher settings the sound will become somewhat thicker and

warmer, whilst at the highest settings the sound will “break up”

into a natural vintage style distortion.

As different types of electric guitars have vastly different

amounts of tonal qualities and output levels, your guitar will

have a major influence on where you will need to set the posi-

tion of the controls on this amplifier to achieve the response

you desire.

Please Note—for this control to be functional the

amplifier channel switching facility needs to be set to

the Normal channel.

13. INPUT JACK

Connect your guitar to this socket.
