Rear Panel Controls - TRACE ELLIOT Velocette 12R Mode D'emploi

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Velocette 12R.
The Velocette 12R is part of the Trace Elliot Velocette range. It is a no nonsense, compact,
purists valve guitar amplifier and has the minimum controls necessary to produce a good
range of sounds, from clean to overdriven, into its single speaker.
The circuit topology has been based on traditional guitar amplifier designs, with new
ideas incorporated where beneficial.
The main preamp and power stage sections are 100% valve. The valves used are two
ECC83/12AX7's and two EL84/6BQ5's run in Class A.

INPUTS
SWITCHABLE OUTPUT - CLASS A
VALVE GUITAR AMPLIFIER
Inputs - Hi & Lo/Link
Two jack sockets are provided for connection to your instrument.
The HI input is a high impedance, high sensitivity input. This can be used with both
passive and active guitars and, depending on the level of output from the guitar and the
VOLUME setting, allows the amplifier to be driven hard into overdrive, if desired.
The LO/LINK socket can be used in two ways. Firstly as a lower impedance, low
sensitivity input, for use with high output guitars when the user wishes to keep the
overdrive under control. Alternatively this socket can be used as a LINK to chain together
two or more Velocettes, simply plug your guitar into the HI socket, take an output from
the LO/LINK socket and plug this into the input of the next amplifier in the chain.
Bright
The BRIGHT switch adds more high frequencies when selected. It works in the traditional
way, therefore it has more effect at lower VOLUME settings.
