GAIN CYCLE takes the GAIN knob setting, which selects your maximum gain, and divides that level of gain into 4 equal parts. Say for instance you have your GAIN knob set at the maximum setting or in other words, 100% gain.

The following press after 100% will cause the gain cycle to start again at 25%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3-BAND ACTIVE EQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo top it off, the DRIVE circuit of the GOLDEN BOY has a 3 band active EQ. The EQ circuit features a studio grade EQ that gives tremendous tonal flexibility to the GOLDEN BOY. Based on the legendary Baxandall EQ that is featured in countless studio EQ’s, the GOLDEN BOY EQ takes this circuit and tailors it for guitarists! We spent tons of time on this EQ dialing it in so it would hit all the frequencies that guitarists need to adjust, and then sweetened it by removing the ear fatiguing highs and lows that can appear at extreme settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEQUALIZER CIRCUIT FEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudio-grade EQ with High Bandwidth and Flat Response at 12:00\u003cbr\u003e+\/- 12dB Boost\/Cut per control\u003cbr\u003eCenter Detents on the pots that make it easier to get back to a neutral or flat response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMIDI FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's 2020 and it's time to expect more from an analog overdrive pedal! Since the BROKEN ARROW came out in 2019, all of our overdrive pedals have featured MIDI control over clipping options, gain cycle options, boost eq options as well as ON\/OFF of the overdrive and boost circuits and the GOLDEN BOY is no exception.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe always want to make sure that our pedals are as easy to integrate into complex rigs as they are into simple rigs and MIDI makes that happen!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCABLE INFORMATION\u003c\/strong\u003e: In order to use MIDI on the GOLDEN BOY, you will need a cable that converts a MIDI (DIN-5) connector to a TRS cable. This is the cable that we have used with great success and can't recommend it enough.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca title=\"https:\/\/www.disasterareaamps.com\/shop\/mj-5p-cable\" href=\"https:\/\/www.disasterareaamps.com\/shop\/mj-5p-cable\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.disasterareadesigns.com\/shop\/p\/mj-5p-midi-cable\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor those building their own cables, the GOLDEN BOY receives MIDI information via the RING connection on a TRS (Tip, Ring, and Sleeve) connector.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck out this link for some detailed wiring:  https:\/\/www.midi.org\/articles-old\/trs-specification-adopted-and-released.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMIDI CHANNEL\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy default, the GOLDEN BOY ships with MIDI Channel 1 being the selected channel. This can be changed by pressing and holding the DRIVE footswitch while applying power to the GOLDEN BOY. Press the BOOST footswitch to increment the MIDI channel number.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou’ll notice that as you continue to hold the DRIVE footswitch, the BOOST LED will flash to indicate which MIDI channel you have selected. IE – 7 flashes = MIDI Channel 7. After the LED flashes, we inserted a 2-second pause so you could tell when the LED was finished flashing. The LED will continue flashing as long as you are holding down the DRIVE footswitch. Once you have selected the MIDI channel you want and have verified it by counting the flashes, simply release the DRIVE footswitch and the pedal will save this MIDI Channel to the internal EEPROM on the microprocessor and reboot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"discList\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInput Impedance: 1M\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOutput Impedance: 100k\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePower Supply: DC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVoltage Input: 9V MAX\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePolarity: Center Negative\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMin Current Required: 150mA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDimensions: 2.7” x 4.875″\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jackson Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39347875610733,"sku":"Golden Boy","price":299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/5988\/2093\/products\/FrontD-square_720x_5c79c717-a1ca-41ce-8fc8-096773b3fc11.jpg?v=1620154461","url":"https:\/\/www.cbnmusicwarehouse.com\/en-ca\/products\/jsckson-audio-golden-boy-transparent-overdrive","provider":"CBN Music Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
