JACKS

• Output - Connect this to a mixer. It gives a good strong signal due to the internal mic preamp.
• Microphone - Plug a dynamic microphone in here. Does not work with phantom power microphones without an external phantom power source.
• Send/Pre Out - Plug out of the Send jack into any additional effects, then back into the Receive jack to introduce new sounds into your vocals. This loop is before the effects, allowing you to affect your dry vocals before the chorus/reverb generated by the Space Ensemble.
• NOTE: Can be used as a mic preamp by connecting an XLR mic into the Microphone jack and using a 1/4" cable to connect to an amp or whatever you want.
• Receive/Aux Input - The return of the effects loop when used in conjunction with the Send/Pre Out. Can also be used to plug a 1/4" source directly into the Space Ensemble.
• 9V - Powers the device. It runs on a standard 2.1mm negative center 9V adapter.

CONTROLS

• Chorus Speed - Blends from unnoticeable chorus to slow chorus to fast warbles as the knob is turned up.
• Mix - Blends from 100% dry vocals to 100% affected vocals and everything in between. 
• Reverb Time - Blends from dry unaffected vocals to small ambiance to huge lush atmospheric effects as the knob is turned up.

INTERNAL CONTROLS

• Chorus Intensity - Adjusts the depth and feedback of the chorus circuit simultaneously. Ranges from subtle chorus effects at 1 to full-on inhuman weirdness at 10.
