ASHDOWN ENGINEERING - PEACEMAKER MINI
USER GUIDE
INPUTS
The Peacemaker Mini range features 1/4" jack sockets which are be used to connect the output
from your guitar to the amplifier. Always use a high quality guitar lead to ensure a reliable
connection, the integrity of your signal, and the minimising of noise.
There are two inputs, this give you the choice to either have a bright classic Brit crunch as the base
tone or a heavy thick American tone.
GAIN CONTROLS
The Gain control is used to vary the amount of signal passing through the pre amp. With the
control set low you will be able to get clean tones (used in conjunction with the Master as
described later). Increasing the gain allows more signal to pass through the preamp, causing the
amplifier to overdrive and distort.
BASS, MIDDLE, TREBLE
This is the equalisation part of the amplifier, and these controls shape the overall response of
the amplifier. Balancing these controls can provide you with a large range of tones from which to
work. All the controls are interactive (moving one will alter the way the others function) and you
should spend some time experimenting to find out what's available.
MASTERS
The Master Volume controls the final amount of signal that is fed to the power amp and therefore
the overall volume of the amplifier. The Master works in conjunction with the Gain control as
follows. For clean tones the Master needs to be fully up, controlling the overall volume with the
Gain control. For distortion tones at controllable levels, turn the Master down and the Gain up.
Varying the Gain will control the amount of distortion and the Master will control the overall level
of the sound. Some models have dual master volumes that work in conjunction with the gain
controls it therefore follows that Master 1 will be used with Gain 1 and so on.
