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.
Footcontrollers
FS-13 2-way footcontroller (supplied)
Connect this footcontroller to the Footswitch socket on the rear of your amplifier
using any standard mono guitar cable or speaker cable (supplied).
By default, your FS-13 footcontroller will be in Looper Mode (see table above) Switch
‘A’ is used to start and finish recording your loops and overdubs, and switch ‘B’ will
stop the loop playback, or cancel the current overdub if still recording. A single press
of both switches ‘A’ and ‘B’ simultaneously will undo the last recorded overdub.
Holding switch ‘B’ will erase the loop memory.
By holding down both the ‘A’ and ‘B’ switches for 3 seconds you can set your
footcontroller to Patch Mode. In this mode, button ‘A’ will toggle between the
patches in Channel 1 and Channel 2 of the currently active Bank. Pressing button
‘B’ will scroll ‘up’ through the first 3 Banks of patches, operating in the same way
as the BANK switch on the amplifier front panel. The operation of Patch Mode can
be changed via the Blackstar INSIDER software, as reflected in the table above.
Simply hold down both the ‘A’ and ‘B’ switches again for 3 seconds to change
back to Looper Mode.
The current mode of the FS-13 footcontroller will be stored when you power off
the amplifier, and will be and recalled each time you power on. Upon powering
on the amplifier with the FS-13 footcontroller connected (or connecting the FS-13
footcontroller with the amplifier already powered on) the current mode of the
footcontroller will be indicated by an animation using the MANUAL, BANK, CH1,
CH2 and CH3 LEDs. Looper Mode will be indicated by a ‘looping’ count up of these
LEDs, whereas Patch Mode will be indicated by these LEDs flashing simultaneously
twice before returning to normal operation.
