Operation – Front Panel

1. INPUT

You can connect an active or passive bass to this ¼”

input jack. The BH250 / BG250-208 input stage is de-

signed to adapt to any type of pickup.

2. GAIN switch

Set the position of the GAIN switch according to the

pickups in your bass. Active pickups typically have a

higher output than passive pickups, and you should

set the GAIN switch accordingly. If your bass pickups

requires a 9V battery, your pickups are active – if not,

they are passive.

3. DYNAMIC TONE CONTOURING

FILTER SECTION

The Dynamic Tone Contouring Filter Section of your

BH250 / BG250-208 is not your standard bass amp EQ!

Ordinary bass, middle and treble controls boost or cut

the same frequency area when you turn the controls

clockwise or counterclockwise. The tone controls of

your BH250 / BG250-208’s intelligently address several

different frequencies when you turn them, integrating

not only tone control but also contouring your sound.

By adapting one or more target frequencies and band-

widths at the turn of a single knob, the Dynamic Tone

Contouring Filter Section combines excellent tone

shaping abilities with ease of use.

4. TONEPRINT knob

TonePrints are described on page 6 of this manual.

If you are not familiar with the concept, please read

this section first. You can also find additional informa-

tion and videos about TonePrint technology on TC’s

website.

The TonePrint knob allows you to control the Tone-

Print effect amount applied to your signal. For Chorus,

Flanger, Vibrato and Octaver, the TonePrint knob acts

as a wet/dry mix control. For Compression and Drive,

the TonePrint knob acts as an amount (intensity) con-

trol. Featured TonePrint artists may have assigned the

TonePrint knob to other parameters.
