UILDING THE SOUND
...
Your EBS Session60 features an en- hanced tone shaping circuit that will enable you to create a variety of bass sounds.
6.
The filters are basically the boost/cut design. This means that the level controls marked with + and - signs, either boost or cuts the selected frequency band.
7.
Gradually increase or decrease the level and vary the frequency of the various filter sec­tions. Notice how the sound is affected.
8.
Repeat as above by trying out the preshape filter Character.
9.
Now, engage the enhanced filter by pressing the switch marked Enh.Filter, and check how the sound is effected by turning the Treble knob.
10.
If you have a CD player or other sound source, you may connect this to the Aux In input and control the amount of volume with the associated knob.

For further reference, check out the sample sound setting on the last page of this manual.
This was a brief tutorial of EBS Session60. As you go on further in this manual, you will learn how to use and utilize all of the useful features that the EBS Session60 off­ers you.
GOOD LUCK!
The EBS Session60 is a solid-state amplifier combo, extremely easy to dial-in. The Session60 is a downscaled design from the Classic450 head to perform extremely well in all styles and situations. The sound is a combination of vintage bass sound and the transparent ’EBS’ sound that let your playing style and the character of your instrument speak. Versatility is provided by a carefully designed EQ with a wide range of possible settings. By using the built in auxiliary input in stereo, you can use this combo for practicing at home with headphones. These brief tutorials will help you to become acquainted with some of the features of the EBS Session60 combo.

ETTING STARTED
...
1.
Carefully unpack the bass combo.
2.
Check that the Volume and Gain controls are set to zero, fully counter clockwise. Set all the other controls to mid position and make sure that the switches marked Character and Enh.Filter are in their outer position. Now the EBS Session60s' settings are "zeroed" and ready to be personalized.
3.
Power up the combo and plug in your bass.
4.
While plucking the strings as hard as you would during your hardest playing, adjust the GAIN knob until the PEAK led starts to flash only at highest peaks.
5.
Move over to the VOLUME knob and adjust for the desired output volume.
