The circuit configuration for this effects loop has been changed from the previous generation of
amplifiers so that the overall gain of the amplifier is not affected by the impedance of the external
effects unit.
REVERB FOOT SWITCH
The REVERB F/S jack sockets allow external foot switches ( not supplied ) to be plugged into the
unit to turn the internal digital effects on and off for either channels 1 & 2 ( LEFT ) or channels 3 &
4 ( RIGHT ). The internal effects will be muted when the switch is shorted.
FACILITIES COMMON TO TA50R, TA100R and TA200RS
MAINS INLET SOCKET
For connection to your countries mains supply. Ensure that the amplifier has the correct voltage
marked on the back panel for your country prior to connecting the mains power cable to the
supply.
For your own safety be sure that the power supply socket that you are plugging into is adequately
earthed.
The MAINS INLET also contains the fuse carrier beneath it that holds the 20mm supply fuse for the
unit. In the event of failure of this fuse always replace it with the same rating and type as marked
on the rear panel ( see Safety Instructions section ).
POWER SWITCH
This is used for turning the power to the unit ON and OFF. The POWER LED on the front panel
will light to indicate when the power to the unit is turned ON.
Always make a habit of reducing the MASTER LEVEL control to zero before turning the unit on or
off. This is just good sense really as any instrument connected to the input of the amplifier could
cause hum pick up or start feeding back if left unattended when the unit is switched on.
THE SPEAKERS
These TRACE ACOUSTIC combos all use multiples of 5" speakers. The TA50 utilise two such units,
the TA100 have four and the TA200 has eight split into two groups of four for its stereo operation.
5" speakers were chosen for their ability to handle a wide frequency spectrum, especially the top
end, as a clear and clean high frequency response is essential for accurate reproduction of acoustic
instruments.
DYNAMIC CORRECTION
To assist the speakers further in the accurate reproduction of acoustic instruments, an electronic
system called DYNAMIC CORRECTION is used.
This is a unique system developed by TRACE ELLIOT that monitors exactly the way in which the
speakers react to the signal being presented to them and compares this directly with the original
input signal. Any differences detected are 'Dynamically Corrected' , ensuring that the speakers
reproduce the original signal with an exceptionally high degree of accuracy.
The result is a totally clean sound, right up to the maximum power handling of the amplifier.
POWER OUTPUT STAGE
The DYNAMIC CORRECTION is incorporated actually within the output stage of the amplifier,
sensing the motion of the speakers and feeding this back to the power section for instantaneous
correction if required.
