2. QUICK DEMO

The Quick Demo is a way to get a customer interested in a product in less than

60 seconds.

Before You Start

1. Connect the MONO (L) output of the ME-25 to the clean channel of a

good amp, such as a Roland JC-120 or other pro quality amp.

NOTE: It is very important to use a pro-quality guitar amp. Why run a high-

end effect through a low-end amp?

2. Set the amp’s tone controls for a flat response.

4. Plug a guitar into the GUITAR INPUT of the ME-25.
