Description: Congratulations on your purchase of the preamp/direct box so powerful itcould only be called the Tone Mallet! Designed to be more than just a“preamp in a pedal” and with more functionality than a standard D.I., theTone Mallet is an essential tool for every bassist’s arsenal.Starting with the warm, organic sound that Aguilar is known for, the ToneMallet adds fully sweepable midrange frequencies in addition to trebleand bass controls for maximum tonal sculpting. Separate Gain andMaster controls allow you to dial in just the right gain structure for anyinstrument.To give this tone shaping unit the ultimate flexibility we are introducing ourproprietary Adaptive Gain Shaping circuitry (AGS). AGS allows the playerto kick in an additional gain structure and EQ curve with the "stomp" of abutton. You can now easily go from modern slap sounds to vintage warmthor overdriven tones. The Tone Mallet has plenty of headroom due to its 18 volt operationand will reproduce the most dynamic playing styles. With the ToneMallet's pristine D.I. you are set to hit the studio or the stage.— 3 Band EQ with fully sweepable midrange— Adaptive Gain Shaping circuitry (AGS)— D.I. with selectable pre/post operation I. Features and FunctionsA. Top PanelGAIN: Controls input sensitivity levelTREBLE: +/- 18 dB @ 4 kHzBASS: +/- 18 dB @ 40 HzMID FREQ: 180 Hz to 1 kHzMID: +/- 17 dB of cut or boostMASTER: Controls output levelENGAGE FOOTSWITCH: toggles between on/bypass (blue LED indicates on)AGS FOOTSWITCH: toggles AGS on/off (red LED indicates on)Adaptive Gain Shaping (AGS)-AGS changes the gain structure and EQ interactively with the gain knob position. Thisproduces a "vintage voiced" EQ that adapts as you adjust the gain knob.The lower the gainknob setting, the "flatter" the EQ applied. The higher you set the gain knob, the moresaturated the gain structure becomes, and the more the bass is tightened and the treblesmoothed.-AGS provides a continuously variable boost depending on the position of the gainknob. The higher the gain setting, the more boost you will get.-The AGS circuitry surrounds the midrange controls, enabling you to get a huge varietyof tonal characteristics by simply adjusting the gain and midrange controls. What thisgives you is a flexible control to get a wide range of tonal colors.-With the Gain knob set from 7 o'clock to 11 o'clock, AGS gives up to 12dB of cleanboost with warm, glassy, vintage EQ.-With the Gain knob set from 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock, AGS gives up to 15dB boost, with alittle vintage growl as the EQ tightens up the bass.-With the Gain set from 1 o'clock to maximum, AGS gives up to 16dB boost full ofwarm, vintage saturation. The EQ tightens up the bass even more for a smootherresponse. B. Side Panel IN: ¼” input, 1mega Ohm input impedance.DC IN: This is a standard 2.1mm DC jack. The center terminal polarity is negative.Compatible with 9-18 VDC regulated power supplies.(not included)PRE/POST: This will place the direct signal either pre or post EQ.Pre: Your signal goes to the D.I. XLR output before your Gain, AGSand EQ settingsPost: Gain, AGS, EQ and Master settings will be sent to the D.I. XLRoutput jack.DI: balanced output, maximum output level 8 VRMS.GND/LIFT: If there is a hum when using the D.I, there may be a groundloop. In many cases, pushing in the Ground/Lift button can fix this problem.OUT: ¼” output, maximum output level 4 VRMS C. Specifications II. Getting StartedD. Basic Setup1. Plug in your instrument, the footswitch, and your amplifier. With Mastervolume down, bring the Gain control to 12 o’clock.2. Turn on your amplifier and engage the Tone Hammer.3.
