Pickup Blending Knob
This knob blends the condenser microphone with the piezo pickup sound. At 0, only the peizo is output; at maximum, both sounds are equally mixed. Adjust the knob to combine the two sounds as desired. The ratio of peizo to microphone sound changes progressively from 10:0 to 10:10 as the knob is turned up.
Volume Knob
Adjusts the final output sound level.
Tone Knob
This knob controls the tone. In the center position, the tone is neutral. Turning it up increases treble and reduces bass, while turning it down strengthens bass and reduces treble. The tone adjusts dynamically across all frequencies, enabling the player to find the optimal balance.
