Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 Reverb Pedal Instruction Manual

1. ບົດແນະນຳ

This manual provides detailed instructions for the operation and maintenance of your Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 Reverb Pedal. Please read this guide thoroughly to ensure proper usage and to fully explore the capabilities of this versatile effects unit.

2. ຜະລິດຕະພັນເກີນview

The Electro-Harmonix Oceans 11 is a compact and feature-rich reverb pedal offering 11 distinct reverb styles. It provides extensive control over various parameters, including access to powerful hidden functions through its Secondary Knob Mode. The pedal is designed to produce a wide range of reverberation effects, from classic sounds to unique ambient textures, and includes a power supply for immediate use.

ຄຸນ​ນະ​ສົມ​ບັດ​ທີ່​ສໍາ​ຄັນ​ປະ​ກອບ​ມີ​:

• Tails Switch: Selects whether the reverb fades out naturally or stops immediately upon bypass.
• Secondary Knob Mode: Provides access to additional parameters for fine-tuning each reverb algorithm.
• Infinite Reverb: Capable of generating sustained reverb washes that can be played over.
• Includes a dedicated power supply.

3. ການຄວບຄຸມແລະການເຊື່ອມຕໍ່

The Oceans 11 pedal features four primary control knobs, a mode button, a footswitch, and input/output jacks.

3.1 ປຸ່ມຄວບຄຸມ

• FX LVL: Controls the mix level of the reverb effect.
• ເວລາ: Adjusts the decay time or length of the reverb.
• ໂທນ: Shapes the tonal character of the reverb.
• ແບບ: Selects between the 11 different reverb algorithms.

3.2 Mode Button and Secondary Knob Mode

Pressing the small ໂໝດ button cycles through the 11 reverb types. Additionally, each reverb mode has hidden secondary parameters accessible by holding down the ໂໝດ button and then turning the FX LVL, TIME, ຫຼື ໂທນ knobs. The LED will change color to indicate Secondary Knob Mode is active.

3.3 Footswitch and Infinite Reverb

The footswitch engages or bypasses the effect. It also has a dual function for activating infinite reverb. Pressing and holding the footswitch in most settings will sustain the current reverb, allowing you to play over it.

3.4 Tails Switch

A small toggle switch on the pedal allows you to select between two bypass modes: Tails On (reverb decays naturally after bypass) or Tails Off (reverb cuts off immediately upon bypass).

3.5 Input/Output Jacks and Power Input

• ການປ້ອນຂໍ້ມູນ: 1/4-inch audio input jack for your instrument.
• ຂາອອກ: 1/4-inch audio output jack to your ampເຄື່ອງຍົກນ້ຳໜັກ ຫຼື ກະເບື້ອງຕໍ່ໄປ.
• INFINITE: External jack for connecting an optional footswitch to control the Infinite Reverb function.
• ພະລັງງານເຂົ້າ 9V: Connect the provided 9V DC power supply here.

4. Reverb Modes

The Oceans 11 offers 11 distinct reverb algorithms. Each mode provides a unique sonic character and can be further customized using the secondary knob functions.

4.1 HALL

Emulates the rich, reverberant sound of a large concert hall.

4.2 ພາກຮຽນ spring

A new algorithm that pays homage to the classic Fender 6G15 tube spring reverb, delivering authentic drip and boing. (See video demonstration at 5:16)

4.3 ແຜ່ນ

Provides the lush, warm reverb sound originally created using large metal plates in recording studios. (See video demonstration at 0:55)

4.4 REVRS (Reverse)

Emulates the unique reverse reverb effect where a note's reverb fades in backwards. (See video demonstration at 2:33)

4.5 ສຽງດັງ

Sends a recirculating echo through the Plate reverb, creating crisp, clear delays smudged by airy plate reverb. (See video demonstration at 10:59)

4.6 TREM

Combines reverb with tremolo applied to both the wet and dry mix of a Hall reverb, offering three different tremolo shapes. (See video demonstration at 3:20)

4.7 MOD

Modulated reverb with three modes: Chorus laced onto reverb tails, Flanger wrapped around reverb tails, or a combination of both. (See video demonstration for Chorus at 9:48 and Flange at 10:31)

4.8 DYNA (Dynamic)

Offers three dynamic reverb effects: Swell (silences attacks before blooming tails), Gate (reverb tail passes through a noise gate), and Duck (compresses reverb while playing, fades in when resting). (See video demonstration for Swell at 6:52 and Gate at 7:37)

4.9 AUTO-INF (Auto-Infinite)

Automatically triggers a reverb wash for each note or chord, crossfading to the new reverb when a new note is struck. (See video demonstration at 8:46)

4.10 SHIM (Shimmer)

Generates a rich octave-shifted reverb wash that modulates and blossoms behind your signal. (See video demonstration at 1:51)

4.11 POLY (Polyphonic)

Features two configurable bi-directional pitch shifts operating on your pre-reverb signal, allowing for disorienting soundtracks or creative harmonies. (See video demonstration for 12 String at 7:55 and Organ at 8:21)

6.1 Selecting Reverb Modes

ກົດ ໂໝດ button repeatedly to cycle through the 11 reverb types. The LED will indicate the currently selected mode (refer to the pedal's graphic for mode labels).

6.2 Using Secondary Knob Mode

To access secondary parameters for a selected reverb mode, hold down the ໂໝດ button. While holding, turn the FX LVL, TIME, ຫຼື ໂທນ knobs to adjust their respective secondary functions. Release the ໂໝດ button to return to primary knob control.

6.3 Activating Infinite Reverb

To activate infinite reverb, press and hold the footswitch. The reverb will sustain indefinitely. Release the footswitch to disengage infinite reverb. An optional external footswitch can be connected to the INFINITE jack for this function.

6.4 Tails Switch Functionality

ກໍານົດ ຫາງ switch to the desired position. In the 'On' position, reverb trails will naturally decay after the pedal is bypassed. In the 'Off' position, the reverb will cut off immediately when bypassed.

9. ການແກ້ໄຂບັນຫາ

If you encounter issues with your Oceans 11 pedal, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• ບໍ່ມີສຽງ:
  • Check all cable connections (instrument to input, output to amp).
  • Verify the power supply is correctly connected and functioning.
  • Ensure your instrument and amplifier are working correctly by testing them without the pedal.
  • Check the FX LVL knob; if it's set to minimum, no effect sound will be heard.
• ຜົນກະທົບບໍ່ໜ້າສົນໃຈ:
  • Press the footswitch firmly to ensure it engages. The LED should illuminate when the effect is active.
• ສິ່ງລົບກວນທີ່ບໍ່ຕ້ອງການ / Hum:
  • Ensure you are using a high-quality, isolated power supply.
  • ກວດ​ສອບ​ສໍາ​ລັບ​ສາຍ​ໄຟ​ຜິດ​ພາດ​.
  • ຍ້າຍ pedal ຫ່າງຈາກອຸປະກອນເອເລັກໂຕຣນິກອື່ນໆທີ່ອາດຈະເຮັດໃຫ້ເກີດການລົບກວນ.
• Reverb Cuts Off Abruptly:
  • ກວດ​ສອບ​ຕໍາ​ແຫນ່ງ​ຂອງ​ ຫາງ switch. If it's in the 'Off' position, the reverb will cut off when bypassed.
