RED ROCK OD ROD-1
OWNER’S MANUAL
Thank you for choosing Providence. In order to take full advantage of the product’s features and performance, please read this manual
thoroughly and keep it in a safe place for future reference.
■Main Features
● W rm overdrive with plenty of sust in gives guit rists wide-r nging expressive voice. The tone is perfect m tch for guit rs with single-coil pickups.
● An extr pre-g in circuit nd three level controls (VOLUME, GAIN, nd MASTER) m ke it possible to cre te distortion effects r nging from from crunch to
h rd drive with subtle control over ll nu nces in between.
● The pre-g in st ge nd volume control re simil r to guit r mp input circuits, llowing level compens tion for pickups of differing output s well s boost
before the sign l re ches the overdrive circuit.
● Speci lly voiced tone control circuitry m int ins optimum overdrive sound throughout the control r nge.
● Intern l circuitry doubles the 9-volt supply volt ge to 18 volts, chieving wide dyn mic r nge with impressive projection nd sense of unlimited depth.
● In convention l “true byp ss” circuits the guit r sign l p sses through two sets of switch cont cts when the effect is byp ssed. The ROD-1 fe tures n S.C.T
(Single Cont ct True-byp ss) circuit in which the sign l only p sses through one set of cont cts in byp ss mode. This incre ses reli bility while m int ining the
highest possible sound qu lity t ll times.
● Improved output j ck grounding is chieved with D.C.G (Double Cont ct Ground) circuit th t cont cts the mono plug ground sleeve t two points r ther
th n one. Incre sed ground cont ct re minimizes intermittent connections while ensuring m ximum sonic qu lity.
■Controls and Connectors
①VOLUMEAdjusts level t the pre-g in st ge.
②MASTERAdjusts the level of the sign l output t the OUT j ck.
③TONEAdjusts full-r nge ton l b l nce. Turn clockwise to emph size the midr nge nd dd “edge” to the sound.* Low-frequency compens tion is pplied t the s me time to
prevent the sound from becoming thin.
* Turning this control clockwise lso incre ses over ll level. Use the MASTER control to compens te s
necess ry.
④GAINAdjusts the mount of distortion produced.
⑤FATBoosts the low frequency r nge when eng ged. Flip the switch upw rd to boost the lows.
⑥LED IndicatorLights when the effect is ON. The LED will st rt to dim when the b ttery volt ge drops below pproxim te-
ly 7 volts. The effect will still function when the LED begins to dim, but perform nce m y not be optimum
nd the b ttery should be repl ced s soon s possible.
⑦INThe output from guit r, electronic music l instrument, or preceding effect ped l should be connected
here.
⑧OUTThis j ck should be connected to the input of n mplifier or effect unit.
⑨FootswitchTurns the effect ON or OFF.
⑩DC 9V IN ConnectorThe DC output from the supplied AC d ptor should be connected here.
Import nt:
The VOLUME nd GAIN controls re designed to provide high m ximum g in. When both controls re set
higher th n their 12 o’clock (middle) positions s tur tion will occur nd noise m y incre se. Oscill tion m y
occur when the m ximum settings re ppro ched. For optimum perform nce, when one of these controls is
set higher th n 12 o’clock the other should be set to below 12 o’clock

■Battery Replacement
Remove the 4 screws from the back cover to replace the battery. Use a 9V/6F22/MN1604 type replacement battery. When changing the battery, do not pull
strongly on the battery cable. This could result in disconnection or malfunctioning of the device.
■Caution
●When connected to an amp and speaker with the power turned on, do not insert or remove plugs in the input or output jacks. Doing so may cause sufficient
noise to damage the speaker.
●If the pedal should fail to work or if it works abnormally, please contact the place of purchase or Pacifix Ltd.
●If the pedal is not used for an extended period of time, please remove the battery to prevent leakage which could damage the pedal.
●A battery should be inserted into the pedal even when using an AC adaptor. By doing so, if the AC adaptor plug should be inadvertently disconnected, power
will continue to be supplied by the battery to provide uninterrupted performance. An AC adaptor with a regulator circuit is recommended.
●If the battery voltage becomes too low, the pedal effect may become weak, the output level may drop, or no sound may come out of the pedal. In that case,
please replace the battery with a new one.
■Troubleshooting
●LED doesn't light Replace the battery with a new one.
