3. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Markbass stereo SUPER SYNTH.
This pedal turns your bass into a synthesizer—with seriously cool sounds and no tracking delay! It also doubles as a digital octaver, with both octave up and octave down layers. The
easy-to-read display always identies what eect is being applied. The parameters of the pedal’s presets can be modied using the Markbass Pedal Controller software, which is
available for download from the pedal’s product page at www.markbass.it. Simply install the software, connect the pedal to your computer using a USB cable, modify the presets as
desired, and then load them back onto the pedal.
Like all our pedals, this unit features true bypass: that means that when the eect is ‘o’, your signal goes directly from the input jack to the output jack without any degradation of
audio quality.
This manual will help you get the most out of your pedal. If you have any questions after reading it, please feel free to contact our online customer service department at
info@markbass.it.
Thank you again, and enjoy your Markbass stereo SUPER SYNTH!
