Once connected, you can begin using your MXR M293 Booster Mini:

1. Shiga Tasirin: Press the footswitch to engage the Booster Mini. The LED indicator will illuminate when the effect is active. Press again to bypass the effect.
2. Daidaita Girma: Slowly turn the VOLUME knob clockwise to increase the boost level. Be mindful of your amplifier's volume to avoid sudden loud sounds. This control provides a clean boost, perfect for pushing your amp into overdrive or for solos.
3. Shaping Tone: Use the TONE knob to fine-tune the high-end response. Turn it clockwise for a brighter, more present sound, or counter-clockwise to smooth out harsh frequencies or achieve a warmer tone.
4. Adding Grit (Internal Control): For a subtle to pronounced overdriven character, adjust the internal Echoplex Preamp level control. This requires opening the pedal. Use a small screwdriver to carefully turn the trim pot. Experiment to find your desired level of saturation.
5. Placement in Signal Chain:
   • Before Overdrive/Distortion: Placing the Booster Mini before gain pedals will increase the input signal to those pedals, resulting in more saturation and sustain.
   • After Overdrive/Distortion: Placing it after gain pedals will increase the overall volume of your distorted sound without adding more distortion, ideal for solo boosts.
