When the STANDBY switch is in the PLAY position, the Tweaker is on and ready to play. DO NOT turn on the amp or have the STANDBY set to play without first connecting to a speaker. The correct power up sequence is to switch the POWER switch on while the STANDBY switch is in the standby position.

TWEAKER REAR PANEL 8 9 10 7 1-2-3 4 1&2) EFFECTS LOOP: Basically an insert patch point. When an external effect is patched into the series send and return jacks, the path is interrupted and 100% of the signal is routed through the effect. This puts some special demands on the effects unit itself. First, it must be essentially transparent meaning it should not mess with your tone. The input and output levels must be properly set for maximum headroom and lowest noise.
