The Recall Indicator shows if there is a mismatch between the current value of a 

parameter within the amplifier and the corresponding physical front panel control. 

For example, when you change to a different patch the controls on the front panel 

may not always reflect the setting you are hearing.
To prevent unexpected level jumps in the control you are adjusting, the front panel 

knobs will have no effect on the sound until the knob reaches the current parameter 

value. Once reached the Recall Indicator flashes twice and the knob ‘takes control’ 

of the value and can increase or decrease the value.
The recall indicator will flash each time the physical knob ‘passes through’ the 

currently active value that you are hearing.
Recall is active for Gain and ISF.
When the Tuner is active the Recall Indicator will flash continuously.

Rear Panel

1. DC Input

The supplied detachable DC power supply is connected here. Always ensure the 

Power Switch (12) is in the OFF position before connecting the power supply. The 

lead should only be connected to a power outlet that is compatible with the voltage, 

power and frequency requirements stated on the power supply. If in doubt seek 
advice from a qualified technician.

Programmability

Storing Patches

Your ID:Core amplifier stores 6 patches (1 patch per Voice setting).  
To store the current sound as a patch press and hold the Manual switch for two 

seconds. The currently selected Voice LED will flash to indicate the patch has been 

stored.
Storing a patch will overwrite any previous patch in that location.
Patches can also be stored via Blackstar’s INSIDER software.

NOTE:

 Each patch on your ID:Core must use the Voice setting assigned to that 

patch i.e. the Clean Warm patch uses the Clean Warm voice.

Recalling Patches 

When in Patch Mode turn the Voice control to choose the desired Voice patch.  
Patches can also be recalled via the Blackstar INSIDER software or a connected 

footcontroller (ID:CORE STEREO 20 & ID:CORE STEREO 40 only). 

NOTE:

To recall a patch, the Manual LED must be off to indicate Patch Mode. 

Turning the Voice control while the Manual LED is on (in Manual Mode) will only 

select the indicated voice.

USB Audio 

English

14

Standard audio drivers are used to connect the amplifier to a PC or Mac. No specific 

drivers are required. For a guide on low-latency USB recording visit: 

www.blackstaramps.com/usbrecording

NOTE: 

Always connect the amplifier via a main USB port, often found on the rear 

of the computer.
The amplifier will appear as an audio capture device within recording software.
The  output  of  the  audio  over  USB  can  be  changed  via  the  Blackstar  INSIDER 

software, and can be one of the following:

 

Speaker emulated stereo effected audio channels

 

2 x mono audio channels

   

- Left – effected amplifier signal

   

- Right – unprocessed guitar signal 

 

Reamping Mode

Reamping

The  amplifier  can  be  switched  into  Reamping  Mode  via  the  Blackstar  INSIDER 

software. This is a non-storable setting and will be switched off either when the 

USB cable is removed, or when the amplifier power is switched off.
When activated, Reamping Mode allows the amplifier to accept a pre-recorded, dry 

guitar signal via USB and return a fully processed audio signal. This return signal can 

then be captured using recording software on the connected PC or Mac.

Firmware Update

Firmware updates are initiated via the Blackstar INSIDER software. A new version 

of the Blackstar INSIDER software will be released whenever an update is available. 
When the amplifier is connected (via USB) to a version of the Blackstar INSIDER 

software containing newer firmware, a message will be displayed prompting you 

to install the latest files. Whilst updating, the amplifier controls will be unresponsive. 

Front panel voice LEDs will cycle to indicate data activity during the update process.
The amplifier power should not be switched off during a firmware update. If the 

amplifier is switched off during an update, the controls may be unresponsive after 

the power is reapplied and the amplifier will produce no sound. The voice LEDs will 

cycle to indicate that the amplifier contains no valid firmware.
If you are experiencing problems with the firmware update process the amplifier 

can be forced to power up in Update Mode. Hold down the Manual (14) & MOD (6) 

switches simultaneously, whilst switching on the amplifer to enter this mode with the 

voice LEDs cycling to indicate Update Mode. Connect the amplifier to the Blackstar 

INSIDER software to begin a firmware updae.
The amplifier must be connected to the Blackstar INSIDER software to reinstall 

valid firmware. The update process will start automatically if the Blackstar INSIDER 

software detects that the amplifier is in this state.
