simont Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 Very good. Q.2. Does the light change color to indicate the presence of EQ on the piezo signal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simont Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 Q.3.With the light indicating an "equalized piezo signal" and 100 percent acoustic sound (no traditional pickups) rotate MCK to LED-Peg and push MCK. Do you have tone control of the PIEZO sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simont Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 really? thats "push" not "press/click". as in... Powertune remains active when the PEQ or the Piezo signal is present AND you rotate the MCK to LED-Peg. When you push down the MCK at this position the PEQ and Piezo signal remain active. The tone knob feels like a regular knob (without clicks) and the tone capacitor is activated again.Roundup If you want to shut down Powertune, turn MCK to any other position than LED-Peg and push MCK. If you want to play with active electronics (PEQ and/or Piezo) rotate MCK to LED-Peg and push MCK.

elantric Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 No There are no EQ controls for the Piezo, and there is no Volume control for the dedicated piezo out on splitter box. I would love to be wrong, but sadly it seems the stereo PEQ's controls of "Gain", "Q", "Bandwidth" can only be changed using my favorite programming language: SOLDER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simont Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 Thanks and Congratulations!!! You are all winners I'm sure they'll be in touch about the prize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simont Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 there is no Volume control for the dedicated piezo out on splitter box. Could someone try this with a Stereo 1/4" TRS "Y- Cord" instead of the Splitter Box just to fully clarify the extent of this bug? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elantric Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Yes I tried it with a Stereo 1/4" TRS Y-Cord - same result 100% Piezo Out, no Volume Control, only option is enable / disable PEQ for a high frequency boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
