NEMESIS NA-600 OWNERS MANUAL 600 WATT RMS BASS GUITAR AMPLIFIER DRAFT RELEASE 6-17-97 1
Forward Congratulations on your purchase of the New Nemesis NA-600 Bass Guitar Amplifier by Eden Electronics. We are proud to present our Retro styled Hi tech Bass Guitar Amplifier, the NA-600. This Amplifier represents a great deal of research and design effort. We have put our best new technologies and some eye catching styling together to create a great sounding Bass head with an exciting visual appeal, great features and a monster 600 Watt RMS power Amplifier.
Description of the Front Panel Controls Input Jack The input signal is inserted here for standard operation. Because of the wide level range available from our special input and gain circuitry, only one input jack is required for both passive and active instruments. Gain Control The gain control is used to match the output level of your instrument to the proper operating level for the Amplifier and Compressor Limiter.
Gain Booster Switch This switch is set up to let you switch between standard gain and high gain on the fly. The Booster switch provides 6 dB of Boost to the signal when engaged. The light is on in the High gain position. Engaging the high gain switch may also work very well for older very low output Instruments. Edge Control This is a great new feature for Nemesis. It allows you to dial in as much or as little vintage tube style distortion as you like.
Semi-Parametric Equalizer (Quazi-Parametric) A fully Parametric Equalizer has controls for Band width, center frequency and the level of boost or cut. These filters can be very difficult to set up correctly. These EQs have lots of good as well as bad sound combinations. Our Semi-Parametric filter has the Bandwidth fixed at a Q of (1), or in musical terms it is set a one octave in width. The center frequency is adjustable from 40 Hz to 10KHz. The level of boost or cut is +/– 15 dB.
Master Level Control This control is directly ahead of the output power amplifier. It controls the main stage sound level and the Head Phone outputs. Head Phones The Head Phone jack is provided for practicing and can be used as an additional signal send or slave output as it follows the Master Control. Light Switch and Internal Lighting This lighted switch turns the internal light on and off. The internal lighting on your unit is designed to ( PULSE and DIM ) just as the amplifier reaches full power.
The Back Panel Operation Main AC Inlet (IEC standard) This inlet fits a standard computer office machine AC cord interconnect. The Fuse is located just above the plug receptacle. The correct voltage is displayed in the upper left corner of the holder and should read correctly with the rest of the printing on the amplifier. If a fuse blows replace it ONLY WITH THE SAME TYPE AND SIZE. The voltage of operation will be marked on the back of the unit.
Post Tone Effects Loop This loop is set up after the tone controls and just before the power amplifier input. It breaks the circuit between the preamplifier and the power amplifier when in operation. Pre Tone Effects Loop This loop is before the tone controls. The send can be used as an extra signal output without breaking the loop. This loop is a good choice for outboard compressors and limiters. Tuner Output This gives you a place to connect your tuner out of the direct signal path of the Bass.
