When setting up your
instrument volume and
RPM-1 Input levels, use
the Bypass button or the
Bypass footswitch to
alternate between the
Bypass and Effect sounds
while you are playing,
and adjust the Input con-
trol until the two levels
are equal.

If your instrument is out-
putting a very hot signal,
the 12AX7A tube will be
compressing and adding
warmth to the signal even
at minimum Drive set-
tings. This may be desir-
able, unless you need to
balance the Bypass level;
in that case, you should
turn the RPM-1 Input
control up to maximum
and then turn your instru-
ment volume down to
balance the levels.

To use Tri-Output mode,
leave the Horn/Rotor
Balance control in the
center position, and
adjust the Spread control
to maximum Wide posi-
tion. Route the three out-
puts to three input chan-
nels on your mixer, pan
the LHorn and RHorn
outputs left and right and
pan Rotor center.

This gives you the most
flexibility by allowing you
to EQ and balance the
Left Horn, Right Horn
and Rotor sounds inde-
pendently. Try applying
reverb to both Horn out-
puts while leaving the
Rotor output dry. 

Use Right and Left inputs for stereo, use
one plug only in the Left input for mono.

Use the Left output for mono, Left and
Right for a stereo image of the rotating
effect, and LHorn, RHorn and Rotor to sim-
ulate two microphones on the horn (high
frequency) and one microphone on the
Rotor (low frequency). 

Stereo 1/4” phone jack for the DigiTech
FS300 Footswitch (included)

For an optional volume pedal - controls the
rotor speed, overriding the Speed and Brake
buttons when a pedal is plugged in.

This input will use most passive volume pedals
or a 0–5 V control voltage pedal - plug a stan-
dard guitar cord between the pedal’s output and
the Continuous Controller jack.

Plug the pedal in before you turn on the RPM-
1, then immediately after turning on the RPM-1,
sweep the pedal from its minimum to maximum
position to calibrate the response.
