GT-80D QuadraDrivetm

ABOUT THE GT-80D:

The Crate GT-80D QuadraDrivetm with Digital Sound Processing is truly unique and versatile, offer-

ing you more performance and flexibility than any other compact amplifier.

Start with two completely separate preamp stages: Solid State and Tube. Then add the two channels:

Clean and Overdrive. Put them together and you have your choice of some of the hottest contemporary

sounds and the coolest vintage sounds available. For example, Solid State Clean gives you “today’s

sound:” crisp highs and an ultra-tight bass response, while Tube Clean offers you that vintage tube sound,

from ultra-clean to a bluesy crunch. Solid State Overdrive gives you all of the traditional Crate Mega-Gain

hard rock sizzle and fire, with lots of definition and compression, and Tube Overdrive starts with a bluesy

crunch and can deliver everything up to screaming, tube-driven lead distortion with plenty of sustain and

total tone control.

But that’s not all. Now add Crate’s easy to operate Digital Sound Processing, with 31 preset effects

including a variety of delays, backwards sampling, gated outputs and reverbs. Select an effect for each of

the four preamp and channel combinations and the amplifier will “remember” each setting and recall it as

you switch between preamps and channels. Add a footswitch and you can preset TWO settings per pre-

amp/channel choice, for up to 8 instantly accessible effects. And the GT-80D’s memory is “non-volatile”

which means that once you enter your settings, they’re in the memory until you change them!

FEATURES OVERVIEW:

Given below is a quick overview of the GT-80DSP’s features and controls:

• Two Completely Separate Channels: Independent Gains, 3-band EQs, and Levels.

• Four Gain Controls: Tube Overdrive, Solid State Overdrive, Tube Clean, Solid State Clean.

• Digital Sound Processing: A wide variety of digital reverbs and effects. The ability to store settings

for each of the four channel/preamp combinations. Footswitchable, with 2 settings per combinations.

• Tube Driven Mosfet Power Amplifier: Crate exclusive. No traditional solid state output devices

means no chance of harsh “square wave” distortion.

• Total Footswitch Control: Channel and Preamp selection. Digital effects control.

• External Speaker Jack: Series connection means no chance of overloading the amplifier.

Standard 1/4” mono phone jack.

• Effects Loop: 1/4” Line Out/Line In jacks. Allows external signal processor connection. Allows

direct connection to external amplifier, mixer, recording console or whatever.

GT-80D QuadraDrivetm

1: INPUT: Connect your guitar here using a shielded instrument cable.

OVERDRIVE Gains:

2: TUBE GAIN: This serves as the gain control for the Overdrive Channel’s Tube preamp section, giving you con-

trol over the compression and overdrive characteristics of the GT-80DSP’s input tubes. Use this control along with

the Overdrive Channel’s volume control (#15) to create a wide variety of sounds at any volume level. (Some sug-

gested settings can be found on page 12.) With the control to the full-left position, no signal passes through. As

you bring the control towards center you increase the signal level and the tube compression, with maximum tube

distortion towards the full-right position.

3: OVERDRIVE LED: This LED glows red when the Overdrive Channel is chosen, and along with LED #14 gives

you a visual sign that the Overdrive gains, tone controls and volume control are active.

4: SOLID STATE GAIN: This serves as the gain control for the Overdrive channel’s Solid Sate preamp section.

Use this control along with the Overdrive Channel’s volume control (#15) to create a wide variety of sounds at any

volume level. (Some suggested settings can be found on page 13.) With the control to the full-left position, no sig-

nal passes through.As you bring the control towards center you increase the signal level and compression, reach-

ing maximum distortion in the full-right position.

5: CHANNEL: Select either the Overdrive channel (switch in the IN position) or the Clean Channel (switch OUT)

with this pushbutton switch. The channel indicator LEDs (#3 and 14 for Overdrive, #9 and 19 for Clean) work with

this switch as a visual guide.

NOTE: When a footswitch is connected to the Channel Select footswitch jack (see #29, rear panel) the front-panel

switch will have no control over which channel is selected.

6: TUBE/SOLID STATE: Select either the Tube preamp (switch IN) or the Solid State preamp (switch OUT) for

either channel with this pushbutton switch. The Tube LED (#7) works with this switch as a visual guide: it glows

when the tube section has been selected.

NOTE: When a footswitch is connected to the Channel Select footswitch jack (which also serves as the Tube/Solid

State select; see #29, rear panel) the front-panel switch will have no control over which preamp section is select-

ed.

7: TUBE LED: This tube-shaped symbol glows orange when the Tube preamp section is selected, giving you a

quick visual reference as to which preamp section is active.

CLEAN Gains:

8: TUBE GAIN: This serves as the gain control for the Clean Channel’s Tube preamp section, giving you control

over the compression and overdrive characteristics of the GT-80D’s preamp tube. Use this control along with the

Clean Channel’s volume control (#20) to create a wide variety of sounds at any volume level. (Some suggested

settings can be found on pages 12 and 13.) With the control to the full-left position, no signal passes through. As

you bring the control towards center you increase the signal level and the tube compression, with a bluesy tube

crunch coming to life as you approach a setting of 8 and thicker tube distortion in the full-right position.

9: CLEAN LED: This LED glows green when the Clean Channel is chosen, and along with LED #19, gives you a

visual sign that the Clean gains, tone controls and volume control are active.

10: SOLID STATE GAIN: This serves as the gain control for the Clean Channel’s Solid State preamp section. Use

this control along with the Clean Channel’s volume control (#20) to create a wide variety of sounds at any volume

level. (Some suggested settings can be found on pages 12 and 13.) With the control to the full-left position, no sig-

nal passes through.As you bring the control to the right you increase the signal level, which stays clean all the way

up to the full-right position.

OVERDRIVE CHANNEL:

11: LOW: Adjust the Overdrive Channel’s low frequency output with this control: the center position is “flat,” that

is, no boost or cut. By turning the control to the left you reduce the low frequency output; turning it to the right

increases the low frequency output. The Low control covers a range of 24dB at 100Hz.

12: MID: Adjust the Overdrive Channel’s midrange output with this control: in the center position the midrange out-

put will be “flat” (no boost or cut). Turning the control to the left reduces the midrange output; turning it to the right

increases the midrange output. The Mid control covers a range of 10dB at 1kHz, which affects the “voice” of your

guitar’s sound.

13: HIGH: Adjust the Overdrive Channel’s high frequency output with this control: in the center position the high

frequency output will be “flat” (no boost or cut). Turning the control to the left reduces the high frequency output;

turning it to the right increases the high frequency output. The High control covers a range of 20dB at 5kHz, which

allows you to adjust the crispness or the “bite” of your guitar.

14: OVERDRIVE LED: This LED glows red when the Overdrive Channel is chosen, and along with LED #3, gives

you a visual sign that the Overdrive gains, tone controls and volume control are active.

15: VOLUME: Adjust the output level of the Overdrive Channel with this control: in the full-left position there is no

output. As you rotate the control to the right you increase the strength of the Overdrive Channel’s signal going into

the power amp, thus increasing the output volume. The signal level for the Line Out jack (see #32, rear panel) is

simultaneously affected by this control.

CLEAN CHANNEL:

16: LOW: Adjust the Clean Channel’s low frequency output with this control: the center position is “flat,” that is, no

boost or cut. By turning the control to the left you reduce the low frequency output; turning it to the right increases

the low frequency output. The Low control covers a range of 23dB at 100Hz.

17: MID: Adjust the Clean Channel’s midrange output with this control: in the center position the midrange output

will be “flat” (no boost or cut). Turning the control to the left reduces the midrange output; turning it to the right

increases the midrange output. The Mid control covers a range of 14dB at 800Hz, which affects the “voice” of your

guitar’s sound.

GT-80D QuadraDrivetm

18: HIGH: Adjust the Clean Channel’s high frequency output with this control: in the center position the high fre-

quency output will be “flat” (no boost or cut). Turning the control to the left reduces the high frequency output; turn-

ing it to the right increases the high frequency output. The High control covers a range of 30dB at 10kHz, which

allows you to adjust the crispness or the “bite” of your guitar.

19: CLEAN LED: This LED glows green when the Clean Channel is chosen, and along with LED #9, gives you a

visual sign that the Clean gains, tone controls and volume control are active.

20: VOLUME: Adjust the output level of the Clean Channel with this control: in the full-left position there is no out-

put. As you rotate the control to the right you increase the strength of the Clean Channel’s signal going into the

power amp, thus increasing the output volume. The signal level for the Line Out jack (see #31, rear panel) is simul-

taneously affected by this control.

The Digital Sound Processor (DSP):

Given below is a brief description of the Digital Sound Processor’s controls. For complete infor-

mation on the use and functions of the Digital Sound Processor, please see pages 8 through 11.

21: LED: This LED indicator glows when the Digital Sound Processor is active, indicating the presence of a

processed signal.

22: MODE: Select the type of digital sound processing effect with this control. Each preamp and channel setting

will “remember” its setting, allowing you to switch between channels and preamps (Tube/Solid State) without hav-

ing to reset the Mode control. For a complete listing of the different effects and their corresponding settings,

see “Using the Mode Control”on page 8.

23: LEVEL: Adjust the amount of digital sound processing effect with this control: in the full-left position the out-

put signal is “dry” (no reverb or effect); rotating the control to the right increases the amount of effect.

24: ON LED: The word “ON” will glow red when you turn the GT-80D on, showing you that the amplifier is acti-

vated and ready to play.

25: POWER: This heavy-duty rocker-type switch is used to turn the amplifier ON in the left position, OFF in the

right position. The ON LED (#24) works with this switch as a visual indicator.

THE GT-80D FRONT PANEL - CON’T:

* * * Please refer to the illustration on page 4. * * *

26: POWER CORD: Firmly plug the supplied, heavy-duty grounded power cord into this receptacle. When in use,

be sure this cord is properly plugged into a safely-wired, grounded 120 volt, 60 cycle AC power outlet. DO NOT

attempt to defeat the ground connection on this cable!

If your GT-80D was purchased outside of the United States, see the unit’s rear panel for its power rating and

follow the above guidelines.

27: FUSE: This protects the amplifier against damages caused from a faulty AC power source or other problems.

If the fuse blows, replace it ONLY with the same size and type use. If the fuse blows repeatedly check the AC

source: if it’s okay, contact your Crate dealer for service information.

28: EXTERNAL SPEAKER: Allows you to connect the output of the GT-80D to an external speaker, placing it in

series with the 12” speaker inside the amplifier. Since this is a series connection, there is no chance of damaging

the amplifier with too low an impedance load.

29: CHANNEL SELECT FOOTSWITCH: A dual footswitch can be plugged in here to give you remote control for

the selection of the Overdrive/Clean channels AND the Tube/Solid State preamp sections. When connected, the

footswitch overrides the front panel switches for these functions.

NOTE: This is a STEREO 1/4” jack: “ring” controls the preamp sections, “tip” controls channel selection, “sleeve”

is ground for both. Use only a stereo-plug equipped footswitch (such as the Crate CFP-2), or a three-way foot-

switch (such as the Crate CFP-3) to control Reverb as well - see #30.

30: REVERB FOOTSWITCH: A single footswitch can be plugged in here to give you remote control for the Digital

Sound Processing Mode for all channels. The footswitch offers you a choice of two Mode settings per channel:

presetting one of the choices to “bypass” gives you the traditional “on/off” control. For additional information please

see “Using the Mode control” on page 8.

31: EFFECTS LOOP LINE IN: Connecting an external signal processor, such as digital delay or echo, can be

accomplished through the Line In and Line Out jacks. Connect the OUTPUT of the external device to the Line In

jack using a shielded cable with mono 1/4” phone plugs. This sends the line-level signal IN to the GT-80D’s inter-

nal power amplifier. The Line In jack is Post-Master EQ and Post-Master Level.

32: EFFECTS LOOP LINE OUT: This carries a pre-amplified, post-EQ signal to an external effects device, ampli-

fier, mixing console or recorder. Connect the Line Out jack to the INPUT of the device using a shielded cable with

mono 1/4” phone plugs. This sends a line-level signal OUT from the GT-80D. The Line Out jack is Post-Master EQ

and Post-Master Level, therefore its tone and output level are governed by the settings of the amplifiers controls.

The Line Out jack is an unbalanced mono 1/4” type.

GT-80D QuadraDrivetm

The Digital Sound Processor’s 32 position Mode control allows you to instantly access the exact type of

effect you want - from classic reverberation to radical “backwards” sounds - for any of the preamp or channel

settings. The diagram below illustrates where each “family” of effects is located. Use this diagram along with the

table on the facing page to familiarize yourself with the locations of the many different sound effects possible

from your GT-80D.

The setting of the Mode Control will determine the type of effect for whichever preamp/channel combination

the amp is set to at the time you adjust the Mode control. Once set, the GT-80D’s non-volatile memory retains the

setting until you reset it.

Example: Plug in your guitar and turn on the amplifier. Set Channel Select to Clean, Tube/Solid State Select

to Tube. Now set the Mode Control to “12” (medium gated reverb). Strike a chord on your guitar and listen to the

sound of the effect. Press in the Channel Select switch to choose the Overdrive Channel, then set the Mode

Control to 26 (large hard surface echo). Strike a chord and listen to the results. Now press Select again to get back

to the Clean Channel and strike a chord - even though you haven’t changed the setting of the Mode Control, the

amplifier “remembered” that you had programmed in setting “12” and kept the effect as you left it.

There’s more: When a Reverb footswitch is used, you can program each of the four channel/preamp combi-

nations with two Mode settings. If you want to control reverb on/off with the footswitch, for example, set the Mode

to “0” (bypass), hit the footswitch and set Mode to “5” (large bright hall). Now you have the ability to switch the

reverb on and off with the footswitch.

With the footswitch you have a choice of two reverb settings for each of the four preamp/channel combina-

tions, for the most flexibility and versatility possible!

(Semi-) Technical Description:

ABOUT THE DIGITAL SOUND PROCESSOR:

“What is reverb, anyway?”

Imagine yourself seated in a small, lightly furnished room, about to enjoy a private performance by your

favorite guitarist. The guitarist picks up an acoustic guitar and sharply strikes a single chord, then immediately

mutes the strings with his strumming hand. Sound waves instantaneously travel from the guitar’s sound hole

through the air to you ears, where your brain processes the waves into the musical sounds you know so well. At

the same time, reflected sound waves are bouncing all around the room: off the walls, ceiling and floor, off of the

musician, off of you; off of everything in the room. These multiple reflections occur so fast and in such large num-

bers that your ears perceive them as one sound: reverb. Without these reflections the sound from the guitar would

seem lifeless, dry and unnatural.

Different rooms produce different reflections, thus producing different sounding reverbs. The same guitarist’s

single-chord performance in a large concert hall would sound different than it did in the intimate surroundings

described above, due to the different reflections produced - thus, the different sounding reverb.

What can be produced by nature can be simulated through the use of the GT-80D’s highly sophisticated digi-

tal electronics circuitry. The GT-80D has many different reverbs available, as well as some unique digital effects,

not found in nature.
