    MANUAL

    OUTBOARD BASS PREAMP / DI


    SBP-1
    This unit offers you the same quality electronics that we have been building into our
    basses for over 30 years. Here are a few tips to help you get maximum performance from your
    preamp.

    Volume
    In most cases the volume control should be set to maximum. If you are using a small amplifier,
    the use of the preamp might overload the preamp stage of your amplifier causing some distortion
    or clipping. In this case, lower the volume control on the preamp to reduce the gain of the input into
    your amplifier. If you plan to toggle between an active setting and bypass, use the volume control to
    set the desired gain for the active setting.

    Treble & Bass


    The treble and bass controls are boost only - flat response is with the controls at their complete
    counterclockwise position. Do not automatically go to full treble and bass boost - start from flat
    response and then boost treble and bass as desired. Although you are free to adjust the settings
    anyway that pleases you, our experience is that once you find the optimal setting for your bass, you
    will not have to make frequent adjustments of the tone controls.

    On/Off Switch
    This footswitch enables you to engage or bypass the active tone circuit. The green LED lights up
    when the preamp section is 'On'. The volume / treble / bass controls do not function in the 'Off'
    mode. All other functions (Dl, tuner out, mute) work in the 'Off' mode. If you want to switch between
    on and off with the same bass, use the volume control to adjust the level for the 'On' position.
    The On/Off switch has no effect on the battery life. The battery is switched on whenever a cord is
    plugged into the input jack.

    Mute Switch
    The Mute switch will mute the signal of the bass. The Mute LED lights up when in mute mode.
    The Tuner Out will remain active in the mute mode.

    XLR Out
    The XLR output enables you to plug directly into a PA or recording console or any other device
    that accepts an XLR connection. The output is accurate and quiet for recording and all professional
    applications.

    Ground Lift
    If a hum occurs while using the XLR output, engage the ground lift switch. When the switch is set to
    the right (under the word, 'Lift') the ground is lifted.

    Low Battery LED


    The Lo Batt LED will begin to glow when the battery reaches 7.5 volts. We recommend you replace
    the 9V battery at this time. To extend battery life, unplug the cord going into the input jack as the
    battery is draining anytime that jack is activated. This is not necessary on short breaks while gigging,
    but do not leave the unit plugged in overnight when not being used.

    AC Adapter
    An input jack for an AC adapter is located on the right side of the unit. The Sadowsky Preamp
    requires a linear regulated power supply for quiet operation. For very noise sensitive applications,
    battery operation might provide the most quiet operation.

    Battery
    To change the battery, pull open the compartment on the side of the unit. Please follow all safety
    instructions regarding the battery usage, removal and disposal. Do not expose the battery to extreme
    temperatures. Use only suitable 9V batteries. Do not use fire to dispose of batteries.
