INTRODUCTION • GETTING STARTED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The EBS Session30 is a solid-state
amplifier combo, extremely easy to dial­in and performs 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

Session30 combo.

GETTING STARTED...

1. Carefully unpack the bass combo.

2. Check that the Volume and Gain controls

are set to zero, fully counter clockwise.
Set the two filter controls to mid position.
Now the EBS Session30s' 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.

BUILDING THE SOUND...

Your EBS Session30 features a tone
shaping circuit that will enable you to
create a variety of bass sounds.

The filters are basically the boost/cut

6.

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. If you have an MP3 player or other sound

source, you may connect this to the Aux In
input. Note that the volume must be
controlled from the source here, since this
input has no associated level control.
