Nice for Guitar too!This is the Demonfx Tone Mallet that gets it's inspiration from the Tone Hammer which has been a favorite of many a player.Designed for Bass-this one has some shaping and sculpting along with some nice Gain punch if desired.The Tone Mallet! Designed to be more than just a“preamp in a pedal” and with more functionality than a standard D.I., theTone Mallet is an essential tool for every bassist’s arsenal.Starting with the warm, organic sound that Aguilar is known for, the ToneMallet adds fully sweep ablemid-rangefrequencies in addition to trebleand bass controls for maximum tonal sculpting. Separate Gain andMaster controls allow you to dial in just the right gain structure for anyinstrument.To give this tone shaping unit the ultimate flexibility we are introducing ourproprietary Adaptive Gain Shaping circuitry (AGS). AGS allows the playerto kick in an additional gain structure and EQ curve with the "stomp" of abutton. You can now easily go from modern slap sounds to vintage warmthor overdriven tones. The Tone Mallet has plenty of headroom due to its 18 volt operationand will reproduce the most dynamic playing styles. With the ToneMallet's pristine D.I. you are set to hit the studio or the stage.— 3 Band EQ with fully sweepable midrange— Adaptive Gain Shaping circuitry (AGS)— D.I. with selectable pre/post operationI. Features and FunctionsA. Top PanelGAIN: Controls input sensitivity levelTREBLE: +/- 18 dB @ 4 kHzBASS: +/- 18 dB @ 40 HzMID FREQ: 180 Hz to 1 kHzMID: +/- 17 dB of cut or boostMASTER: Controls output levelENGAGE FOOTSWITCH: toggles between on/bypass (blue LED indicates on)AGS FOOTSWITCH: toggles AGS on/off (red LED indicates on)Adaptive Gain Shaping (AGS)-AGS changes the gain structure and EQ interactively with the gain knob position. This produces a "vintage voiced" EQ that adapts as you adjust the gain knob.The lower the gain knob setting, the "flatter" the EQ applied. The higher you set the gain knob, the more saturated the gain structure becomes, and the more the bass is tightened and the treble smoothed.-AGS provides a continuously variable boost depending on the position of the gain knob. The higher the gain setting, the more boost you will get.-The AGS circuitry surrounds the mid-rangecontrols, enabling you to get a huge variety of tonal characteristics by simply adjusting the gain and mid-rangecontrols. What this gives you is a flexible control to get a wide range of tonal colors.-With the Gain knob set from 7 o'clock to 11 o'clock, AGS gives up to 12dB of clean boost with warm, glassy, vintage EQ.-With the Gain knob set from 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock, AGS gives up to 15dB boost, with alittle vintage growl as the EQ tightens up the bass.-With the Gain set from 1 o'clock to maximum, AGS gives up to 16dB boost full of warm, vintage saturation. The EQ tightens up the bass even more for a smootherresponse.B. Side PanelIN: ¼” input, 1mega Ohm input impedance.DC IN: This is a standard 2.1mm DC jack.
