USER GUIDE
F1 AURA+

Welcome
Thank you for making Fishman a part of your acoustic experience. We are proud
to offer you the finest acoustic amplification products available; high-quality
professional-grade tools to empower you to sound your very best. We are
confident F1 Aura+will both enhance and inspire your music making.
Despite its simple and clean appearance, F1 Aura+features a powerful set of
tone shaping controls and programmability. We urge you to read through this
user guide and spend some time getting familiar with its operation, so that you
may easily realize the system’s full potential.
Aura Acoustic Imaging Technology uses digital algorithms developed in
Fishman’s audio laboratories to restore a studio-miked sound to an acoustic
instrument. To achieve this, we’ve recorded this instrument using world-class
microphones and techniques to capture an “Image” of the natural sound that
it emits when miked in a professional studio. This Image, when recorded direct
or played through an amp, mixer or PA, blends with the undersaddle pickup to
produce an incredibly accurate recreation of the original recording.

Multi-function Controls
With F1 Aura+, both the Edit and Volume knobs contain a momentary switch.
So, in addition to turning a knob, pressing down on the knob will gain access to
one or more features.
For this reason, this guide will refer to knob actions as: turn, press, or press+hold.
Refer to the chart on page 19 for a quick reference of the various features.

Performance Mode
For the more adventurous player, we’ve created a much deeper control interface
called Performance mode. This mode gives you full access to an extensive
set of tone shaping controls. And to make things easier while you perform,
we’ve grouped some controls into Play and the rest into Edit. Play and Edit are
described on the following pages.
Entering Performance Mode
F1 Aura+is shipped from the factory to power up in Easy Mode (page 6). To
change the preamp to power-up into Performance Mode:
1. Press + hold the Edit knob (Tone control) while plugging in the guitar.
Continue to hold the Edit knob down when the tuner displays the letter “R” and
then the letter “P”.
2. While still holding the Edit knob, press the Volume knob. Release both knobs.
Performance mode is selected when the “P” stops flashing and the unit returns
to normal operation.

Play vs. Edit
Play
Once in Performance Mode, plug in your instrument and it powers up into Play.
In Play, Volume, Blend and Phase can be adjusted. The chromatic Tuner and the
automatic Anti-Feedback circuit can also be activated. The Tone control is now
referred to as the Edit knob.
Edit
Press and release the Edit knob to enter Edit; the tuner’s green in-tune LED will
light solid. Once in Edit, press the Edit knob repeatedly to step through the
parameters. Each parameter is displayed using a single letter to represent its
function (see page 19). Adjust its value by turning the Edit knob. A number is
displayed and the tuner’s sharp/flat lights show positive or negative values.
Note: F1 Aura+is programmable and automatically saves your settings.
To exit Edit and return to Play, wait 15 seconds for the display to go dark, or press
+ hold the Edit knob for 2 seconds. You may also immediately exit by simultane-
ously pressing both the Edit and Volume knobs.
