CHANNEL 1 FEATURES
1. INPUT 1 JACK & CONTOUR SWITCHES
The INPUT jack is designed for instruments such as acoustic or electric gui-
tars. TheMID switchcutsthemidrangefrequency10dBat400Hzwhichresults
in an enhancement of the bass and treble response. This can be an ideal set-
ting with acoustic guitars. Use the HI switch to enhance the high frequencies
(10dB boost at 10kHz) perfect for brightening up an acoustic guitar.
2. VOLUME CONTROL
TheVOLUME control adjuststhe volume ofthechannel heard inthe speaker,
the line out jack and the headphone jack.
3. EFFECTS CONTROL FOR CH 1,2 & 3
EachchannelfeaturesanEFFcontrol.TheEFFECTScontroladjuststhevolume
ofthechannelgoingtotheoneoftheinternalDSPprocessors. Turningcounter-
clockwise to the left will send the channel’s signal to EFF 1 and turning clock-
wise to the right will send the channel’s signal to EFF2. The effects control is
post (or after) the volume control. Watch the PK (peak) LED on EFF 1 and 2 in
themastersection. TurndownthechannelEFFlevelifittheLED startstoflash.
4. LO AND HIGH TONE CONTROLS
The LO and HI tone controls are used to shape the bass and treble sound of
theinput signal. Startoutwiththetonecontrolsintheircenterpositionswhere
they do not effect the signal. Then, as needed, turn the tone controls (turn to
the right to boost, or to the left to cut) to change the sound.
5. ACOUSTIC SWEEP TONE CONTROLS (FREQ. AND GAIN)
The FREQ and GAIN controls make up the MID sweep control. The way to
get familiar with these controls is to set the GAIN control to near full clock-
wise, and turn the FREQ control through its full rotation while playing chords
or notes on an instrument. Then try it again with the gain control to near full
counter clockwise to hear the difference. A suggested setting for electric gui-
tarsis toplacetheGAINcontrolat+6andsettheFREQcontrol at800Hz. This
setting will remove the mid frequencies for a crisper sound.
CHANNEL 2 FEATURES
6. INPUT 2 JACK & LO/MID CONTOUR SWITCHES
The INPUT phone jack is designed for instrument or line level inputs such as
adrum machine, tapedeck, another guitarorbass guitar, akeyboard, an unbal-
anced mic, etc.. The LO switch is a 10dB low freq. boost at 60Hz & the MID
switch is a 10dB mid cut at 400Hz. These “pre-shape” filters can help eliminate
the guess work when dailing in the tone of your instrument. You can then fine
tune your sound with the EQ knobs.
7. VOLUME CONTROL
The VOLUME control adjusts the level of the channel heard in the speaker,
the line out jack, and the headphone jack. The gain structure of this channel
isdesigned tohandlebothinstrumentandlinelevelinputs. Theresultissome
instruments, such as a single coil electric guitar, may need the VOLUME con-
trol turned up to 7 or higher to match the other channels. Also, for the same
reasonsome linelevelinputs,suchasaCDplayermayneedtheVOLUME con-
trol less than 1 to match the other channels.
8. LO AND HI TONE CONTROLS
The LO and HI tone controls are used to shape the bass and treble sound of
the input signal. It is suggested that the tone control settings start in their
center positions where they do not effect the signal. Then, as needed, turn
the turn to the right to boost, or to the left to cut to change the sound.
CHANNEL 3 FEATURES
9. XLR MICROPHONE & 1/4” INPUT JACKS
The MIC input is designed for balanced low impedance ( microphone ) input
signals. The Balanced input will reduce the common noise picked up on the
microphone cables. The XLR connector is wired as per the industry standard;
pin1isground,pin2ispositiveandpin3isnegative. Phantompowerisavail-
ableontheXLRinputjack. Thisallowscondensermicrophonestoberundirectly
without the need for batteries or other external phantom power supplies. The
1/4”jackisdesignedforunbalancedhighimpedancesignals(guitar,tapedeck,
drum machine, etc.). Both of these inputs can be used at the same time.
10. VOLUME CONTROL
TheVOLUME control adjuststhe volume ofthechannel heard inthe speaker,
the line out jack, and the headphone jack.
11. LO AND HI TONE CONTROLS
The LO and HI tone controls are used to shape the bass and treble sound of
the input signal. It is suggested that the tone control settings start in their
center positions where they do not effect the signal. Then, as needed, turn
the turn to the right to boost, or turn to the left to cut to change the sound.
12. DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING
The24bitprocessorwillprovideahostofawesomesoundingeffectsthatinclude:
Flange, Reverb, Echo, & Chorus. The master EFFECT 1 & 2 control will adjust
thevolumeleveloftheselectedeffect. RemembereachchannelhasitsownEFFECT
send level that will adjust the amount of signal sent to the effects processor. The
red PK LED will indicate when the effects signal is clipping. Lower the channel
EFFECTcontroluntilthePKLEDstopsflashing. (Note:Whenadjustingtheeffects
on either channel, an audible noise may be heard).
EFFECT PARAMETERS
Each of the four effects has a variable parameter that can be easily adjusted.
ECHO: When the top SELECT control is at the “7 O-clock” position, it is selected
to the first ECHO setting where you get a single repeat echo (minimal regenera-
tion). Turning the PARAMETER control to 1 will provide the shortest delay time
betweentheoriginal signal andtheecho. Increasingthe PARAMETER controlto
the right will increase the time delay between the original signal and the echo.
You can get a maximum of .5 second delay. To increase the number of echoes,
turn the SELECT control clockwise to “9 O-clock” (maximum regeneration).
REVERB: When the SELECT control is at the “10 O-clock” position, it is selected

to the first REVERB setting. Turning the SELECT con-
trol clockwise will increase the amount of high fre-
quenciesinthereverb.TurningthePARAMETERcontrol
to 1 will provide minimal decay time of the reverb.
IncreasingthePARAMETERtotherightwillincreasethe
reverb decay time.
CHORUS:WhentheSELECTcontrolisatthe“1O-clock”
position it is selected to the first CHORUS setting.
TurningtheSELECTcontrolclockwisewillincreasethe

ting. Increasing the PARAMETER to the right will increase the chorus depth.
FLANGE: Whenthe SELECT control isat the “3O-clock” positionit is selectedto
thefirstFLANGE setting. TurningtheSELECT control clockwise will increase the
flanger’sspeed.TurningthePARAMETERcontrolto1 willprovideminimalflang-
ingdepth. IncreasingthePARAMETERtotherightwillincreasetheflanger’sdepth.
13. THE 5 BAND GRAPHIC EQUALIZER
The5bandgraphicEQisanexcellenttooltofinetunetheoverallmixfromyour
AG100D. To use the 5 band Graphic EQ, set
all sliders to their center detent position.
When the sliders are in this position, they do
not effect the audio signal. When a slider is
raisedorlowereditboostsandcutsthelisted
frequency, respectively. One setting that can
be used to enhance your sound is to cut the
mid range (800 Hz slider set to -8) and raise
thehighand lowfrequenciesasshown. This
isa common“smile” curve that givesa tight punchy sound withplenty of highs
to cut through a crowd.
14. MASTER VOLUME
The overall volume is controlled by the master volume. The position of this
control should always be higher than the individual channel volume. Never
turna channelvolumelouderthanthemastervolumeordistortioncouldresult.
15. POWER SWITCH
The power switch is to be utilized as the master ON/OFF switch. If the LED
doesnot turnoncheckthepowercableandmakesureitisproperlyconnected
at the back of the amp. Also verify there is power at the wall receptical. If the
amp does not power up after this is verified, contact customer service.
REAR PANEL CONTROLS
16. STEREO LINE OUT JACK (HEADPHONES)
The LINE OUT jack is a post EQ output jack for pre amp signal access. Use
onlyastereo1/4”pluginthis jack. This output is the same signalthatisbeing
fed to the internal power amplifier that drives the speaker. Use this jack for a
direct to mixer feed or as a recording output to a tape deck. The DSP effects
will be heard in stereo through this output. This jack will also function as a
stereo headphone output.
17. EFF 1 & 2 FOOTSWITCH JACK
You can remotely turn the two effects on and off by plugging in the optional
FS22 footswitch. Each effect red clip LED will light up continuously when the
effect is shut off by the footswitch.
18. EFFECTS SEND & RETURN JACKS
The EFFECTS SEND jack is the output send jack to your external effects unit.
The EFFECTS RETURN jack is the input return jack that completes the effects
loop. Plug the output of your external effects unit into this jack.
19. EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACK (CHASSIS)
The EXTERNAL SPEAKER jack is for connecting additional speaker cabinets.
Thejackisconfiguredsoanexternalspeakercabinetcanbeconnectedinseries
withtheAG100D’sinternalspeaker. Recommendedexternalspeakerimpedances
are 4 to 8 ohms. Carvin recommends the matching 112AG extension speaker.
20. AC POWER
The detachable AC POWER CORD supplied is designed to operate with one
type of voltage (the European 230V export model uses a CEE-7 plug cord set).
Make sure the cord is securely inserted into the back of the unit. Plug the cord
into a grounded “3” prong” power source. No attempt should ever be made to
defeat or use the amp without the ground connected. The internal switching
power supply will “auto-switch” from 100 VAC to 250 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz. This
allows the AG100D to be used in various countries without the need for mod-
ifications or external transformers.
21. 1/4” SPEAKER INPUT (ENCLOSURE)
A 1/4” jack is used for connecting the amp to the speaker cabinet.
22. TWEETER L-PAD (ENCLOSURE)
The rear TWEETER L-PAD adjusts the level of the tweeter to give crisp clear
highs. If distortion is heard when playing excessively loud, turn the tweeter
down as it can amplify distortion created by a guitar or mic.

HELP SECTION
1) AMP WILL NOT TURN ON
Checkthepowertotheamp. Checkfortrippedcircuitbreakers,unpluggedextension
cords or power-strip switches that may be turned off. After you have verified there
is AC power and the amp still doesn’t work, your unit will require servicing.
2) MAINTENANCE
To bring back the new look, your AG100D cabinet can be wiped with mild detergent
and/or a warm damp soft cloth. This will remove normal dust and oil from the cab-
inet.Neverspray cleanersordetergentsdirectlyat theelectroniccontrols. TheAG100D
is virtually sealed from outside dust and dirt, but it is recommended to keep the unit
free from excessive dust, dirt, and moisture as much as possible.
