English Features Thank you for purchasing this Blackstar Series One amplifier. Like all our products, this amp is the result of countless hours of painstaking Research and Development by our world-class design team.

English English Front Panel 8. Crunch Select Press this switch to select the Crunch Channel. 1. Input Plug your guitar in here. Always use a good quality screened guitar lead. 9. Crunch Gain The Crunch Gain control adjusts the amount of the Crunch Channel’s overdrive or distortion. Low settings, counter clockwise, will deliver a clean sound on the edge of break-up. As the Crunch Gain control is increased clockwise the sound will become more overdriven, moving through beautiful crunch tones.
English Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 Channel EQ The ISF control works in conjunction with the Bass, Middle and Treble controls. It allows you to choose the exact tonal signature you prefer. Fully counter clockwise has a more American characteristic with a tight bottom-end and more aggressive middle, and fully clockwise has a British characteristic which is more ‘woody’ and less aggressive. 24.
English Crunch DPR Operation The DPR control allows the output power of the S1-200 to be reduced anywhere from 200W (100%) down to 20W (10%) of the rated power. The DPR control allows you to pin-point exactly how much valve overdrive you want to come from the preamplifier section and how much is coming from the KT88s in the power amplifier section. DPR works by controlling the power supply voltages to the KT88 output valves and also the level of drive signal into the power amplifier stage.
English Program Change Assignment The Series One offers the ability to control channel selection via MIDI Program Change messages and interfacing with most MIDI controllers is a straight forward process. The Series One can be placed in a MIDI chain allowing you to simultaneously select a channel on the amplifier and change the patch on a MIDI effects processor connected to the effects loop. There are 128 available Program Changes, giving you the possibility to access a vast number of tonal combinations.
