A.

OUTPUT JACKS

Separate

Output

and

Direct

Only

Output

phone

jacks

are

provided,

both

having

nominal

output

levels

of

-20dB

(78mV).

The

jacks

may

be

used

at the

same

time

as

the

front

-panel

Output

jack.

Depending

on

the

setting

of

the E1010's

Mixing

control,

the

rear panel

Output

jack

will

provide all

delayed,

all

direct,

or

any

blend

of

sound.

The

Direct

Only

output

carries

the

same

signal

as

applied

to

the

E1010

Input,

subject

only

to

the

Input

Level

control.

NOTE:

Some

effects

can

be

achieved

only

when

the

direct

and

delayed

sounds

are

electrically

mixed,

either

within

the

E1010

via

the

Mixing

control,

or

externally

if

the

E1010's

Mixing

control

is

set

fully

clockwise

(to

all

"Delay"

sound).

Other effects

can

be

achieved

only

when

the

direct

and delayed

sounds

are

kept

separate

electrically.

If

an

expected

effect

is

not

achieved,

be

sure

the

appropriate

output

is

used

with

a

suitable

Mixing

control

setting.

B.

INPUT

JACK

This

jack

is

identical

to

the

E1010's

front

panel

Input

jack. The

front

panel

Input

takes

priority,

how-

ever,

so

the

rear

panel

Input

will

be

disregarded

as

soon

as

anything

is

plugged

into

the

front

panel

Input

jack.

C.

GROUND

SWITCH

(For

U.S.

and

Canadian

models

only)

This

three

position

switch

may

reduce

noise

or hum

in

some

installations.

Use

the

switch

position

which

sounds

best.

OFF

does

not

interrupt

the

ground

path

between

the

AC cord

and

the

chassis

(it

merely

removes

a

filter

capacitor

from

the AC

line).

D.

FUSE

This

0.5

amp

fuse

for

nominal 120V

AC

mains

on

U.S.

and

Canadian

models

or

250mA

fuse

for

nominal

220V

AC

mains

on

other

models

protects

the

delay

line

by

preventing

excess

current

flow

in

the

AC

side

of

the

power supply.

E.

AC

POWER

CORD

This grounded

(3-wire)AC power

cord

may

be

wound

around

holders

on

the

E1010

rear

panel

when

not

in

use.

HINTS

FOR

QUICK

SETUP

Plug

the

cable

from

your

microphone,

instrument, or

mixer

effects

output

into

either

of

the

E1010

"Input"

jacks.

Connect

a

cable

from

either

of

the

E1010's

"Out-

put"

jacks

(not

the

"Direct

Only

Output")

into

the

input

jack

of

your amplifier,

mixer,

tape

machine,

etc.

Then

set

up

the

E1010

for

the

desired

effect,

referring

to

the

diagrams

on

Pages

8

and

9

of

this

manual.

If

you

don't

hear

any sound

right

away,

check

the

E1010

Power

switch

and

Input

level

control,

and

make

sure

that

the

display

is

active

during

louder

passages.

Be

sure

the

input

and

output

cables

are

connected

properly.

Short

delays

are

useful

for

flanging,

double-tracking,

tunnel

sounds,

and

similar

effects, Medium

and

long

delays

are

useful

for

vibrato,

echo,

pitch

bending,

and

rhythmic

effects.

The

delay

ranges

have

considerable

overlap

to

ensure

that

modulation

effects

can

be

obtained

without

running

into

restrictions

at the

end

of

a

given

delay

range.

The

tone controls

themselves

operate

the

same

as

most

tone

controls,

but

they

can

modify

the actual

effect

as

well

as

the

frequency

balance.

For

example,

in

short

delays

the

Bass

and

Treble

tone

controls

can

change

the

nature

of

the comb

filter

or

flanging

effect.

In

medium

or

long

delays

with

feedback,

the tone

controls

can

change

the

effective

delay

time,

depending

on

the

frequency

content

of

the

input

signal.

While

you

can

always

refer

to

diagrams,

you

will

probably want

to

learn

to

figure

setups

and

effects

"from

scratch."

This

is

easier

when

you

understand

what

the

E1010

is

doing

to

the

sound.

After

familiar-

izing

yourSelf

with

the

unit,

we

recommend

that

you

study

the section

of

this

manual

titled

"How

the

E1010

Works."

*

The

rear

panel

show

here

is

subject

to

U.S.

specifications.

PRECAUTIONS

1.

Before

turning

ON the E1010,

set

its

FEEDBACK

control

to

minimum

(full

counterclockwise).

This

avoids

any

potential

howling

which

could

damage

speakers.

2.

While

the

E1010

is

protected

against

turn

-ON

and

turn

-OFF

"thumps"

or

transients,

it

is

still

a

safe

practice

to

Lower

the

volume

of

your

power

amplifier

when

first

turning

ON

the

E1010.

Also,

begin

with

the

E1010

INPUT

control

at

a

low

setting

and

gradually

turn

it

up

until

program

peaks

illuminate

most

of

the

LED's

in

the

unit's

INPUT

LEVEL

display.

Then

adjust

the

power

amplifier

volume

as

desired.

3.

Use

caution

whenever

connecting the

E1010

out

-

put

to

its

input;

mixing

and/or

feedback

can be

achieved

without

special

connections

by

using

the

controls

provided.

4.

Never

connect

the

output

of

a

power

amplifier

to

the

E1010

inputs;

they

are designed

for

mic,

instrument

or

line

level

signals

only

(Exception;

a

guitar

amp

output

may

be

used

if

it

is

connected

via

a

suitable

direct

box,

one

including

an

attenuation

pad

to

lower

the

signal

to

mic

or

line

levels.)

5.

Do

not

connect

power

supplies

or

apply

DC

voltages

to

any

E1010

inputs or

outputs.

6.

Never

use

abrasives

or

spray

-on

chemical

solvents

to

clean

the

E1010.

Mild

detergents

applied

to

soft

cloths

are

preferred.
