Bedien die pedaal

The TO800 features dedicated controls for DRIVE, TONE, and LEVEL, allowing for extensive sound shaping.

• RY: Adjusts the amount of overdrive or distortion. Turn clockwise for more aggressive, saturated tones.
• TOON: Controls the overall tonal character, from mellow (LO) to bright (HI). This allows you to fine-tune the high-end response.
• VLAK: Sets the output volume of the effect. Use this to balance the effect's volume with your bypassed signal or to boost your signal.
• AAN/BATT LED: This LED indicates when the effect is active and also serves as a battery check. If the LED is dim or does not light up when the effect is engaged, the battery needs to be replaced.
• Voetskakelaar: Engages or bypasses the effect. The pedal features true bypass for signal integrity when disengaged.
