About the EBS Reidmar 750 Bass Head!
The EBS Reidmar 750 provides a full bodied, warm and transparent tone throughout the entire range. It is equipped with EBS renowned built in compressor, professional balanced XLR-output, Character filter and an efficient 4-Band EQ and a Drive that lets you master the sound.
The EBS Reidmar 750 handles a 4 Ohm load. Due to its power rating (700W RMS), using mini-size cabinets calls for very careful use of the master Volume. It is strongly recommended to use Reidmar 750 with a 4 ohm cabinet that matches the power output of the amp.
The Reidmar amp is designed and developed in the heart of Sweden by EBS.
GETTING STARTED...
1. Carefully unpack the bass head.
2. Check that all knobs are set fully counter clockwise besides the EQ controls marked BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE which should be set to mid position. Make also sure all push switches are set to their outer positions. Now the EBS Reidmar 750s settings are "zeroed" and ready to be personalized.
3. Connect one or more speaker cabinets to the speaker output. Make sure the total impedance is not below 4 ohms.
4. Turn on the POWER switch.
5. Plug in your bass. While plucking the strings as hard as you would during your hardest playing, gradually increase the GAIN knob unit the peak LED starts to flash at peaks.
6. Move over to the VOLUME knob and adjust for the desired output volume.
BUILDING THE SOUND...
7. The first tonal shaping circuitry is the Character Filter next to the GAIN control. This filters provides a preshape EQ prior of further fine tuning of your sound.
8. Enable the filters by pressing the Filter Active pushbutton and explore the filter section. Play your bass. Note that there isn't any difference in sound yet.
9. The filters are basically of the boost/cut design. This means that the level controls marked with + and -signs, either boost or cuts the selected frequency band. Further, the MIDDLE section has got a frequency control for precise adjustment of the midrange.
10. Gradually increase or decrease the level and vary the frequency of the middle filter when operating the middle filter. Notice how the sound is effected. An A/B comparison can be made by toggling the filter active switch.
11. Proceed to the COMP/LIMIT knob. This control adjusts the compression and is useful when playing very dynamic or loud.
12. Turn up the COMP/LIMIT knob to mid and max position. Notice how the peaks in volume will straighten out as you play harder and harder.
13. Now, go on to the BRIGHT and turn it half way up. Play your bass. The BRIGHT filter is a high pass filter which works on the highest fre quencies of the bass to give enhanced ambiance and presence.
14. Proceed to the DRIVE control and increase this setting gradually until desired level of over driven sound is reached.
This was a brief introduction and as you go on further in this manual, you will learn how to use and utilize all of the useful features that the EBS Reidmar offers you.
