Arpege III bass controls?

[bassace39]

Can someone please explain what all the controls are, and how they work...frequencies ect. I have an idea but what like to hear from an expert on the Arpege.

Me too, I asked the question a while back but haven't gotten an answer to my post. Not the most lively of forums, this one.
It would be nice if Patrice would answer some questions once in a while.
Congratulations on your Arpege, it's a great bass, the electronics are nice to albeit a bit quirky, the silence when you switch from one preset to another is acceptable but the very loud POP when you use the switch.........
Best regards from the Netherlands,

Hi Jarno,After scouring the net I found a copy of the Arpege manual, hope it helps.Like you said it would be nice if Patrice took an interest in some of his biggest fans as he did not answer my direct email either.Cheers from Canada,Kelly.

Hi Kelly,
Do you have the Url to this manual, or how did you find it?
Does it say anything about the eq presets?
Best regards,
Jarno.

Patrice and the team in France has been on vacation across the summer so this is why you have not had a reply from him.

Well, my question was from the 8th of may, so that's kind of a long holiday. Let's just say this is an excellent opportunity for improvement
Best regards,
Jarno.

Hey Jarno,I found the manual on the old Vigier site which I thinks it was  www.vigierguitars.net.Just knowing what the controls were was a good start for me.Let me know if you find anything more.Thanks,Kelly

Sometime we miss a post...sometime we miss an email, but be sure that we try to help you guys as much as we can.All the actual manuals are downloadable on any guitar page. For exemple for the Arpege 5 Here And yes you can find the old manual on the old we site www.vigierguitars.net that I put back on service for this reason :=)

Thanks for the reply Patrice.And once again, thanks for making the finest bass I have owned and believe me there have been many.Cheers from Canada,Kelly

I haven't checked this forum in a long long while. Thanks for replying Patrice, I've found the manual, and in fact have seen it earlier, it's just that it is very cryptic. I just want to know what the settings actually do, because that helps me remembering them.Bass boost, treble cut, mid boost/cut, that sort of stuff. Just saying the settings are all different is a bit uninformative.
