Serial Amp Control Port was developed exclusively for ENGL amps. No other footboard
will work and in fact is likely to damage the footboard or the amp's circuitry!
You can use the ENGL Z11-S.A.C. MIDI Switcher to integrate the amp straight into a
MIDI system. You can also opt to control two amps in parallel using the Z11-S.A.C.
MIDI Switcher and MIDI commands. The Z11-S.A.C. Switcher is equipped with six
switching loops (accessed via three stereo jacks) and the S.A.C. Out (stereo jack) for
precisely this purpose!

Use this jack to connect a conventional footswitch with two switching functions, for
example, the ENGL Z-4 (2 x off/on - Single Pole Single Throw or SPST for short). This
type of footswitch lets you access
One of the
two switches enables or bypasses
, while the other switches the Noise Gate on
and off (in the Lead channel with High Gain engaged only).
Note also: A footswitch may be equipped with LEDs indicating the given switching
status. Each of the two switches is provided with approx. 10 milliamperes current,
which suffices to power a standard LED. The jack's mono terminal controls
