installation into Godin Multiac

Polybass octaves each string separately, thats why it works so accurately.
the Godin Multiac became known as one of the few instruments that has a hexaphonic RMC pick-up
(the newer versions Encore and Duet have monophonic pickups though!)
thats why we made the board so it fits perfectly into that guitar (and other RMC products).
if you have a screw driver and can strip a wire, you can install it.
the lowest slider provided to control the Synth Volume ends up controlling the bass effect….

for details get this manual and/or this connection schema

for basic installation the video should be enough:

  1. unscrew black plastic on the back side of the control faders (4 black screws)
  2. unscrew board (4 metallic screws with plastic washers)
  3. cut the red and the black wire about 2cm from the board
  4. pull board to disconnect it from lower board
  5. disconnect 14pin flat cable connector from it
  6. plug the 14pin flat cable into the same position on the new Paradis board (its possible to connect off by one pin!)
  7. position the board by the screw holes and then gently press it down in the correct position
  8. strip about 3mm insulation from the wires
  9. insert wires to the cream colored receptacle, while pressuring its little levers with a finger nail or a flat little screw driver: red to + and black to – . to verify the wires are correctly inserted by pushing them a little
  10. Play! the lowest fader which can control a Roland synth volume now controls the volume of the Polybass effect. 
  11. if it does not work, jump to Trouble Shooting below
  12. verify the volume of each string. if you feel they are unbalanced, read on at Single String Adjust, below
  13. screw the 4 metallic screws into the boards corners
  14. install the new plexi back cover with the black screws
  15. put the little plastic caps on the sliders, the colors help orientation
