REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
The Valve FX rear panel connectors and functions are as follows:
1) AC Line Input
- This is the power cord receptacle.
2) Foot Controller
- This 5-pin DIN plug is for connecting the optional
DigiTech Control One foot controller. THIS IS NOT A MIDI PORT.
CONNECTING A DEVICE OTHER THAN THE DIGITECH CONTROL
ONE FOOT CONTROLLER TO THIS JACK MAY DAMAGE THE
DEVICE. A standard MIDI-type 5-pin DIN connector was chosen
for the Control One foot controller connector because cables are so
readily available.
3) MIDI In
- The MIDI In port allows the Valve FX to respond to incom-
ing MIDI messages, including Program Change, Continuous
Control, and System Exclusive data.
4) MIDI Out
- Sends out MIDI data generated by the Valve FX to
other devices. It can also pass MIDI data received by the Valve
FX’s MIDI In to other devices.
