MANUAL

The SL/LD MultiGain model 3-channel guitar preamp is designed with ﬁve 12AX7 tubes. It has a rack design (1 unit high) and

is convenient for use both in the studio and in concert activities, easy to use. It has a wide range of sound adjustment that

allows everyone to ﬁnd their own unique sound.

џall-tube sound path (5 tubes 12AX7) with the ability to use tubes from diﬀerent manufacturers separately for clean and

overdrive sound;

џ3 completely independent channels: CH-1 CLEAN (clean channel), CH-2 LEAD 1 (overdrive channel) and CH-3 LEAD 2

(drive channel). Channel switching is carried out both on the front panel and from the 2-button foot controller that comes

with the preampliﬁer;

џFX LOOP tube eﬀects loop with a choice of operating modes (serial or parallel), switching on / oﬀ separately for clean /

drive channels, control from a two-button foot controller, softening the sound of transistor and digital processing due to

the use of a 12AX7 lamp in the circuit;

џA250K / A1M mode GAIN control for channel CH-3 (LEAD-2). The A250K has a more punchy sound with more pronounced

low frequencies. A1M has balanced high and low frequencies;

џconnecting to the instrument input of a guitar ampliﬁer (as an eﬀects pedal), to the RETURN of a guitar ampliﬁer, or to a

ﬁnal power ampliﬁer (as a preamp);

џbuilt-in speaker simulator for line connection and recording devices;

џdedicated headphone output.

R&R SOUND AMPLIFICATION SL/LD MultiGain PRE-AMPLIFIER

MANUAL 1-3

CH-1 CLEAN (clean channel):

The “GAIN” control plays a key role here, and at low values the sound is well suited for playing picks, drumming rhythms, etc.,

while at high values there is a “glass” - a crystal clear, transparent sound suitable for blues solos. When using powerful

humbuckers and the GAIN control close to the maximum, you can get a slight crunch. Excellent channel dynamics allows you

to highlight the solo with a simple increase in attack. There is a 3-band pre-gain EQ for ﬁne-tuning the sound.

CH-2 LEAD-1 (overdrive channel):

Quite signiﬁcantly overloads the sound. Suitable for playing blues, hard rock and heavy metal from the 70s and 80s. Works

well in other styles that don't require hi-gain overdrive. Transparent, warm, overtone-rich sound, harmonics “shoot” from

under the ﬁngers even at low levels of the GAIN control. The BRIGHT switch will add "glass" to your solos, and the rhythm will

sound sharper. The presence of a 3-band post-gain EQ and a PRESENCE control allow you to create a wide palette of sounds.

CH-3 LEAD-2 (drive channel):

Very dense, aggressive, heavy and fat HI-GAIN overdrive - "that" Californian sound. The stock of gain is incredible. The

warmth and compression of the tube is excellent. The sound is very versatile and is well suited for both GARY MOORE's

stringy solos and the tight rhythm of the heaviest styles. Good readability in low tunings. There is a 3-band EQ located after

the gain. The PRESENCE control will make your part stand out in the mix.
