 to switch between Channels 1 

and 2 of the currently selected 

)

Blackstar FS-10 Footcontroller

This multi function footcontroller allows you to access all patches, toggle effects 
and program patches.

MIDI footcontrollers

Functionality will depend on your footcontroller.

5. 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 mono.

6. Emulated Output

This output emulates the tonal characteristics of a guitar speaker cabinet and 
provides a natural tone for connection to a recording device or mixing desk

To make full use of the stereo effects, use a stereo jack to two mono jacks splitter 
lead to feed two channels of the recording device or mixer. The output will also 
function into a mono guitar type lead. Always use a good quality screened lead. 

Turning the 

=

olume knob (4

 will control the Emulated Output level. The Master 

=

olume only affects any connected speaker(s

/cabinet(s

.

NOTE:

 To ‘silently’ record, set the Master 

=

olume to zero. You may also record 

from this output without a loudspeaker connected, but ensure that no loudspeaker 
leads are connected to any of the loudspeaker output jack sockets of the amplifier, 
as this will defeat the load protection circuit and will cause damage to the amplifier.

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 
qualified technician.

2. Speaker Outputs

ID:60TVP, ID:100TVP

There are two parallel speaker outputs for connecting external speaker cabinets. 
The minimum load is 4 Ohms.

WARNING:

 The combined impedance must never be less than 4 Ohms (e.g. 1 x 4 

Ohm cabinet, or 2 x 8 Ohm cabinets

. Failure to correctly match the impedance of 

the amplifier and speakers will damage the amplifier.

NOTE:

 2 x ID

!

412 4 Ohm cabinets cannot be used together.

ID:260TVP

There are two speaker outputs (1x left channel, 1x right channel

 for connecting the 

internal speakers or external speaker cabinets. 

The internal speakers are directly plugged into these outputs and must be unplugged 
before external cabinets can be connected.

The minimum load is 4 Ohms.

WARNING:

 The impedance of each output must never be less than 4 Ohms. Failure 

to correctly match the impedance of the amplifier and speakers will damage the 
amplifier.

ID:60TVP

The speaker output is for connecting the internal speaker or external speaker 
cabinets. 

The internal speaker is directly plugged into this output and must be unplugged 
before an external cabinet can be connected.

The minimum load is 4 Ohms.

WARNING:

 The impedance must never be less than 4 Ohms. Failure to correctly 

match the impedance of the amplifier and speakers will damage the amplifier.

3. MIDI In

If using MIDI is required, connect the MIDI device here. Refer to the MIDI section for 
more details. Always use a good quality MIDI lead.
