Knucklehead Reverb 1.0 p 10
Sub Level Output (with high pass Pull-Switch)
This control is a RIVERA exclusive feature. This control varies the output level of the
Sub Woofer output circuitry the feeds a full range low source impedance signal to Sub
Woofer Output jack (see rear panel features) to an external Powered Sub, like our Sub
1 or Sub 2 powered Sub Woofer cabinets. It also can be used as an Auxiliary Send to a
Mixer, Recorder, PA System, and a sub-Woofer system that utilizes it’s own electronic
crossover and separate power amp, like our Rivera LB-212 Sub Cab and a Rivera TBR-
5, 320W Power Amp (requires a separate non-Rivera made electronic crossover). This
signal is dry, meaning any signal present in the effects loop return, will not be in the
signal stream from this jack. The internal power amp of the Knucklehead Reverb is
normally a full range signal, with all of the frequencies of the amplifier powering the
Speaker Output jacks. When the Sub Level control is pulled, a high pass filter
frequency dividing network is activated, with the internal power amp only reproducing
the frequencies higher than the frequencies that the Sub 1 or Sub 2 powered Sub-
Woofers are optimized for. This gives you an increase in dynamic range and definition
of the normal speakers connected to the Knucklehead Reverb. This is because they no
longer have to handle the fatiguing low frequency energy. This switch was provided for
players to have a choice in tones, or to be able to use the Knucklehead Reverb without
a subwoofer speaker system.
Focus
This control is another RIVERA exclusive that actually lets you change the speaker's
response characteristics, from tight to loose. The effect can give closed-back cabinets
a sound more akin to an open one, and vice-versa, plus you can "custom blend" the
amount of hardness your final sound has. This function is independent of the use of the
Sub Woofer Output, and even with the Sub Level control pulled, it will continue to affect
the Knucklehead Reverb speaker output damping.
Presence
The Presence control is incorporated as a vital part of the power amp section. Think of
it as a final brightness control after all the EQ, distortion and effects.
Standby
By turning the Power on and the Standby off (the down position, labeled with a '0'), you
can warm up the amplifier before applying full voltage to the Preamp and power output
tubes. This prolongs tube life. Using the Standby switch when you're taking a break
also helps to extend the tubes' life, plus it keeps the amp constantly at the ready. Just
flip the Standby switch to the up ('I') position, and you're ready to play.
Power
This is your main power switch. The on position is indicated by the light being
illuminated. The off position is marked by the "0" on the switch. Before turning the amp
on, always check that a speaker is connected and that the power cord is firmly plugged
into the amp and the outlet.
