PERFECT ACOUSTIC EQ CONTROL IN ONE COMPACT PEDAL

Based on the highly-regarded Fishman Platinum series of instrument preamps, AFX Pro EQ Mini offers quality preamplification and critical equalization voiced specifically for acoustic instruments.

This is no off-the-shelf graphic EQ – plug in and your signal begins with a high-impedance instrument preamp to condition nearly any passive or active pickup. Then, use the four bands of acoustic tone control to sculpt your bass, mids, treble, and brilliance. A sweepable Low Cut fine-tunes the very low frequencies to reduce or enhance thumps and subs. Finally, hold the footswitch to toggle your output polarity. Also known as “phase,” this simple circuit can tame low-frequency howl very effectively.


AUDIO PATH SWITCH

AFX Minis allow you to choose the audio path on which a particular effect will be processed. You do this by flipping the Audio Path switch on the front of the pedal.


TRUE BYPASS

With true bypass, the pedal’s electronics are literally removed from the signal chain. For those who prefer a buffered bypass, AFX Mini effect pedals are switchable.


DC POWER

In order to pack a lot of functionality into the smallest stompbox size we could find, AFX Minis require external power. Be sure to use a Fishman 910-R(120VAC) or 910-U(230VAC) power adapter to ensure the above specs.


FOOTSWITCH MUTE

Like other AFX Minis, press the footswitch to bypass the effect. AFX Pro EQ Mini also lets you choose to mute your audio instead of bypass. Hold the footswitch while applying power and the LED will flash to indicate the mode has changed.


SETTING LEVELS

Unlike conventional guitar stompboxes, AFX Pro EQ Mini features an analog preamp that provides up to 20dB of quality gain and impedance matching for most passive, active, and magnetic acoustic instrument pickups.


PHASE INVERT

Signal polarity – often referred to as Phase – changes the pickups relationship to the sound coming from the amplifier. Inverting Phase can reduce feedback. With low volume playing, it can improve the intensity of low frequencies you hear.
