Nga Mana me nga Mahi

The JHS Pedals 3 Series Hall Reverb features intuitive controls for shaping your desired reverb sound.

VERB Knob

Controls the overall mix or wetness of the reverb effect. Turn clockwise to increase the amount of reverb blended with your dry signal.

DAMPEN Knob

Adjusts the tone or brightness of the reverb tail. Turning it clockwise will make the reverb brighter and more open, while counter-clockwise will make it darker and more subdued.

KNOB PIRO

Determines the length of the reverb tail. Clockwise rotation increases the decay time, allowing the reverb to sustain longer, creating larger hall sounds.

MODULATE Toggle Switch

Engages or disengages a subtle modulation effect on the reverb tail. This adds movement and depth to the reverb, enhancing the spaciousness.

Tatūnga

1. Hononga Hiko: Connect a standard 9V DC negative center power supply (not included) to the power input jack on the pedal. The pedal consumes 70mA. Ensure your power supply meets these specifications to prevent damage.
2. Hononga Whakauru: Connect your instrument (guitar, bass, keyboard, etc.) to the "INPUT" jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.
3. Hononga Huaputa: Connect the "OUTPUT" jack on the left side of the pedal to your ampte rama, te atanga oro, te pētera rānei e whai ake nei i roto i tō mekameka tohu mā te whakamahi i tētahi taura taputapu paerewa 1/4-inihi.
4. Te Whakatakotoranga o te Mekameka Tohu: Reverb pedals are typically placed towards the end of your effects chain, after gain pedals (overdrive, distortion, fuzz) and modulation pedals (chorus, flanger, phaser), but before delay pedals if you prefer the delay to repeat the reverbed sound. Experiment with placement to find your preferred sound.

Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere

Once connected, the JHS Pedals 3 Series Hall Reverb is ready for use. The pedal is activated by pressing the footswitch.

• Whakauru i te Paanga: Press the footswitch to toggle the reverb effect on or off. The LED indicator will illuminate when the effect is active.
• Adjusting Reverb Depth: Whakamahia te VERB knob to control the intensity of the reverb. Start with the knob at 9 o'clock for a subtle effect and increase clockwise for a more pronounced, ambient sound.
• Shaping Reverb Tone: Ko te DAMPEN knob allows you to adjust the brightness of the reverb. Turn it counter-clockwise for a darker, warmer reverb, or clockwise for a brighter, more shimmering sound.
• Controlling Decay Time: Ko te POROHA knob sets how long the reverb tail lasts. Shorter decay times (counter-clockwise) are suitable for subtle room sounds, while longer decay times (clockwise) create vast, cathedral-like spaces.
• Adding Modulation: Porehia te WHAKAMAHI toggle switch to introduce a gentle modulation to the reverb. This adds a subtle movement and richness to the reverb, preventing it from sounding static.

Experiment with different combinations of the VERB, DAMPEN, and DECAY knobs, along with the MODULATE switch, to discover the wide range of hall reverb sounds available.
