tortion that delivers a wealth of warm, organic amp-like tones in an easy to use, compact form factor� Eclipse’s incredible versatility stems from its powerful and intuitive two channel circuit design� Each channel features its own Gain, Level and 3-Band passive EQ similar to a channel switching amplifier� Both channels can be voiced independently to accommodate all of your playing needs� The blue and red channel in the Eclipse sound identical, and the beauty of this lies in the individual passive EQ circuits� You can set one channel for a tight, scooped ...

effect’s output� DC Input: Eclipse accepts power from power supplies in the range of 9 to 18 Vdc (center negative) See Technical Specifications on pg 10. Eclipse can also be powered internally from a 9V battery as described below� Output: Plug a cable from here to an amp or another effect’s input� Installing/Replacing The Battery: 1� Unscrew the backplate of the pedal to access the battery compartment with the battery snap located inside� 2� Plug in a 9V battery to the snap and re-screw the backplate� NOTES: The battery is connected when a cable ...

Eclipse has two channels (blue and red) with independent settings that are selected by the switch below the desired channel� The channels can be set for the same sound on each channel, or they can be radically different� The left side is Channel 1 and contains a blue LED above its dedicated footswitch� The right side is Channel 2 and contains a red LED above its dedicated footswitch� Channel Selection and Bypass functions: •� Stepping on the left switch will turn Channel 1 on or off� •� Stepping on the right switch will turn Channel 2 on or off� •� Switching from one channel to another will automatic ...

like classic crunch and overdriven tones to high gain/distortion territory� Level: Adjusts the output volume of the pedal� Eclipse provides enough vol- ume to push the front end of any tube amp into natural overdrive� B (Bass): The bass knob is a shelving filter that reduces (counter clockwise) or boosts (clockwise) the amount of bass frequencies of the respective chan- nel� M (Middle): The mid knob reduces (counter clockwise) or boosts (clockwise) the amount of mid frequencies of the respective channel� T (Treble): The treble control is a shelving filter th ...

The internal 9V battery is monitored at both power up and during use� The user will be alerted when the battery voltage becomes low� When the battery becomes too low to reliably operate the pedal, True Bypass is activated� Upon powering up the pedal, the battery voltage is measured� If the voltage is at a low voltage (4�5V), the LEDs will flash 3 times to alert the user� Normal operation will then resume� Should the battery fail completely (<4V), Eclipse will switch to true bypass mode and the LEDs will begin to flash� This will en- sure that the signal continues uninterrupted and undistorted� ...

Eclipse contains an 1/8” stereo TRS input jack called FX LINK that allows the pedal to be controlled by an effects switching system with TRS control output jacks, such as the BOSS ES-8 or ES-5� Connect a TRS 1/8” cable into the FX LINK jack from your effects switching system� A 1/4” to 1/8” stereo cable would typically be used. Set the 3-position slide switch to the center (FL) on startup for external control A connection between the Tip and Sleeve controls Channel 2’s ON/OFF state� •� When Tip is connected to Sleeve, Channel 2 is ON •� When Tip is disconnected from Sleeve, Channel 2 is OFF A connec ...
