Features

The HT-1 is the perfect studio and practice amp, packing all the great tone and

innovative features of the award-winning HT-5 valve amp into a 1 Watt format. The

patented ISF (Innite Shape Feature) circuit gives you innite adjustment over the

characteristics of the tone control network and takes you from the USA to the UK

and anywhere in between. So now you can effectively design your own tone and

nally nd ‘the sound in your head’.

In making the HT-1 ideally suited to home and studio use, the aim was to develop

a valve amp which sounded full and toneful even at the lowest volume level. With

this in mind the Blackstar design team designed a brand new valve power amplier

topology. The HT-1 power amplier is a low powered push-pull design which

produces the crunch and break-up characteristics of a traditional 100W output

stage but at a much lower volume. This is achieved by the use of an ECC82 dual

triode in push-pull conguration producing 1 Watt output, which is rich in valve

harmonics and compression.

The HT-1 also has a fully specied speaker emulated output which further enhances

the studio credentials and allows any guitarist to get amazing valve tone straight to

tape or disk, or through headphones.

Add to this an MP3 / Line Input, along with a 4-16Ω speaker output which allows

you to run the amp into an external speaker cabinet of your choice, and you have

everything you need for recording or practising.

Front Panel

1. Input

Plug your guitar in here. Always use a good quality screened guitar lead.

2. Gain

This control adjusts the amount of overdrive or distortion.

When the Clean Channel is selected, low settings counter clockwise (CCW), will

deliver a clean sound. As the Gain control is increased clockwise (CW) the sound

will move from clean into break-up, until at its maximum position, a full crunch tone

is arrived at.

When the Overdrive Channel is selected, the Gain control adjusts the amount of

overdrive or distortion. Low settings, counter clockwise, will deliver a clean sound

on the edge of break-up. As the Gain control is increased CW the sound will become

more overdriven moving through crunch tones until, at its maximum position, a full

distorted lead tone is arrived at.

3. Overdrive Select

Press this switch to select the Overdrive Channel. When the switch is in the Overdrive

Channel is selected. When the switch is out the Clean Channel is in operation.

4. Volume

This controls the volume of the Clean and Overdrive Channels. Turning it clockwise

increases the volume.

5. ISF (Innite Shape Feature)

The patented ISF control allows you to choose the

exact tonal signature you prefer. Fully CCW has a

more American characteristic with a tight bottom

end and more aggressive middle, and fully CW has

a British characteristic which is more ‘woody’ and

less aggressive.

6. Reverb (only on HT-1R and HT-1RH)

The Reverb control sets the overall level of the reverb effect. With the control fully

counter clockwise there will be no reverb. Turning the control clockwise will increase

the amount of reverb.

7. Speaker Emulated Output & Headphones

This output emulates the tonal characteristics of a guitar speaker cabinet and

provides a natural valve overdrive tone for connection to a recording device or mixing

desk, and for use with headphones. To make full use of the stereo reverb, use a

stereo jack to two mono jacks splitter lead to feed two channels of the recording

device or mixer (see diagram below). The output will also function into a mono guitar

type lead. Always use a good quality screened lead.

Note: when a lead is connected here the combo’s internal speaker is disconnected.

8. MP3 / Line In

Connect the output of your MP3 or CD player here. Adjust the player’s volume to

match that of your guitar to enable you to play along.

Note: the connection is stereo.

9. Power Indicator Light

The power indicator will light when the amplier is switched on.

10. Power

This switch is used to turn the amplier on and off.

Rear Panel

1. Mains Input

The supplied detachable mains lead is connected here. The lead should only

be connected to a power outlet that is compatible with the voltage, power and

frequency requirements stated on the rear panel. If in doubt get advice from a

qualied technician.

2. Speaker Outputs

The output marked ‘4-16 ohms’ is for the connection of an extension speaker cab

with an impedance of 4 to 16 ohms.

Note: The combo’s internal speaker will be disconnected when an external speaker

cabinet is connected.
