1. Танилцуулга
The TC Electronic MIMIQ DOUBLER is a guitar effects pedal designed to simulate the sound of multiple guitar tracks playing in unison. It adds depth and thickness to your guitar tone by creating up to three additional virtual guitar tracks, each with slight variations in timing and pitch, mimicking the natural imperfections of human performance. This manual provides essential information for setting up, operating, and maintaining your MIMIQ DOUBLER pedal.
2. Аюулгүй ажиллагааны заавар
Before using the MIMIQ DOUBLER, please read and understand the following safety precautions:

- Ус ба чийг: Do not expose the unit to rain, moisture, or extreme humidity. Avoid placing liquids near the pedal.
- Дулаан: Do not place the unit near heat sources or in direct sunlight. Ensure adequate ventilation.
- Үйлчилгээ: Төхөөрөмжийг өөрөө засварлах гэж бүү оролдоорой. Бүх үйлчилгээг мэргэшсэн үйлчилгээний ажилтнуудад шилжүүлээрэй.
- Цэвэрлэгээ: Төхөөрөмжийг зөвхөн хуурай, зөөлөн даавуугаар цэвэрлээрэй.

4. Тохиргоо
Follow these steps to integrate the MIMIQ DOUBLER into your guitar rig:
- Эрчим хүчний холболт: Connect a compatible 9V DC, center-negative power supply (not included) to the 9V DC input jack on the rear of the pedal.
- Guitar/Input Connection:
- Моно тохиргоо: Connect your guitar or the output of your preceding pedal to the 'Stereo In Mono' (left) input jack.
- Стерео тохиргоо: If using a stereo signal source, connect the left channel to the 'Stereo In Mono' (left) input and the right channel to the 'Stereo In' (right) input.
- AmpӨргөгч/Гаралтын холболт:
- Моно тохиргоо: Connect the 'Stereo Out Mono' (left) output jack to your ampөргөгчийн оролт.
- Стерео тохиргоо: Connect the 'Stereo Out Mono' (left) output to your left amplifier/channel and the 'Stereo Out' (right) output to your right amplifier/channel. This configuration is recommended for the most immersive doubling effect.
- Анхны тохиргоо: For a starting point, set the 'Tightness' knob to 12 o'clock, 'Effect' to 3 o'clock, and 'Dry' to 12 o'clock. Set the 'Dubs' switch to '2'. Adjust to taste from there.
5. Ажиллаж байгаа
The MIMIQ DOUBLER allows for precise control over the doubling effect. Experiment with the knobs and switch to find your desired sound.
Зураг 4: Нарийвчилсан view of the control knobs and Dubs switch.
Хяналтын функцууд:
- Dubs Switch (1, 2, 3): This switch determines how many additional virtual guitar tracks are generated. '1' adds one track, '2' adds two, and '3' adds three. More tracks create a thicker, more expansive sound.
- Tightness Knob: This control adjusts the subtle timing and pitch variations between the original and doubled tracks. A lower 'Tightness' setting introduces more human-like imperfections, making the doubled tracks sound less synchronized. A higher 'Tightness' setting makes the tracks align more closely, resulting in a very precise and unified sound.
- Effect Knob: Use this knob to set the volume level of the generated doubled tracks. Increase for a more prominent doubling effect, decrease for subtlety.
- Dry Knob: This knob controls the volume level of your original, unprocessed guitar signal. Balance this with the 'Effect' knob to achieve the desired blend of dry and doubled sound.
- Жинхэнэ тойрч гарах хөлийн унтраалга: Press the footswitch to toggle the effect on or off. The LED indicator will illuminate when the effect is active. True bypass ensures your signal remains uncolored when the pedal is disengaged.
6. Засвар үйлчилгээ
The MIMIQ DOUBLER is a robust pedal, but proper care ensures its longevity:
- Цэвэрлэгээ: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the pedal. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Хадгалах: Удаан хугацаагаар ашиглаагүй үед дөрөөг сэрүүн, хуурай газар, нарны шууд тусгал болон хэт өндөр температураас хол хадгална уу.
- Холболтууд: Бүх кабелийн холболтыг элэгдэл, урагдалт байгаа эсэхийг үе үе шалгаж байх. Дохио алдагдах эсвэл дуу чимээ гарахаас сэргийлж гэмтсэн кабелийг солих.
7. Алдаа засах
If you encounter issues with your MIMIQ DOUBLER, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Асуудал | Боломжит шалтгаан | Шийдэл |
|---|---|---|
| Педаль дарахад дуу гарахгүй. | Incorrect power supply; faulty cables; 'Effect' or 'Dry' knobs set to zero. | Verify power supply (9V DC, 100mA, center-negative). Check all audio cables. Ensure 'Effect' and 'Dry' knobs are not fully counter-clockwise. |
| Volume drop when engaged. | 'Effect' and/or 'Dry' knobs set too low relative to bypass volume. | Adjust 'Effect' and 'Dry' knobs to achieve unity gain or desired boost when the pedal is active. |
| Хүсээгүй чимээ шуугиан эсвэл хөөрч байна. | Ground loop; faulty power supply; interference from other electronics. | Use a high-quality, isolated power supply. Try different power outlets. Ensure all cables are in good condition. Move the pedal away from other electronic devices. |
| Doubling effect is too subtle or too extreme. | 'Tightness', 'Effect', or 'Dubs' settings are not optimized. | Experiment with the 'Tightness' knob to adjust the feel. Increase 'Effect' for more prominent doubling. Change the 'Dubs' switch setting to add or remove tracks. |
