SOUL FOOD
Overdrive
Congratulations on your purchase of the Soul Food, an exquisite overdrive and
clean boost from Electro-Harmonix, designed for the tone conscious player who
needs to cut through a mix without altering the voice of his or her instrument.
The Soul Food delivers a wide range of sounds from sweet clean boosts, for
added volume, to just a touch of dirt, for livening up your sound, to full-on
overdrive. Soul Food has plenty of volume on tap to push your amplifier into
saturation, delivering distortion that is actually created by your amp! Whatever
your style or rig, the Soul Food gives your tone a lift in all the right places
without compromising it.
WARNING: Your Soul Food comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-200BI
power supply (same as used by Boss
®
& Ibanez
®
: 9.6 Volts DC 200mA). The Soul Food
requires 22mA at 9VDC with a center negative plug. Using the wrong adapter may damage
your unit and void the warranty. The Soul Food also accepts 9V batteries, we recommend
alkaline.
- CONTROLS -
DRIVE Knob Controls the amount of input gain. As you turn DRIVE clockwise,
the overdrive ranges from clean boost, in the fully counter-clockwise position, to
classic distortion, in the fully clockwise setting. There are many great sounds
found within the full range of the DRIVE knob, we recommend experimenting
with different positions in both halves of the DRIVE knob to find just the right
amount of grit for your needs. In addition, turning DRIVE clockwise will bring out
more mids in your tone.
TREBLE KnobActs as a tone control. When set to 12 o’clock (50%), the tone
is neutral. As you turn TREBLE clockwise from the 12 o’clock setting, the treble
gain increases making your overall sound brighter. As you turn TREBLE counter-
clockwise from the 12 o’clock setting, the high end is reduced giving you a
bassier sound.
VOL Knob Sets the output level of the Soul Food. As VOL is turned clockwise,
the output volume increases.
