Engl Ironball SE E606SE, Operator'S Manual

Page: 7 / 16

This feature is compatible with the ENGL Z9 (which we recommend to use with this amp) and the
ENGL Z12 only.
MIDI In
This 5-pin DIN port accepts data sent by a MIDI sender (ENGL Z9, ENGL Z12) or from or routed
through another MIDI device.
CAUTION:
Before you connect any 3 rd party MIDI footcontroller or effects device, always make sure
that the Phantom Power switch is not engaded to avoid damaging the connected device or the amp.
MIDI Channel Auto Recognition
To assign the MIDI channel by which the amp´s MIDI system will receive program change or specific
MIDI controller commands assigned to certain amp functions you need to enter the MIDI Channel
Auto Recognition.
This is how it works:
1. The Clean channel must be engaged.
2. Press and hold the Noise Gate push button for about 2 seconds until the Noise Gate LED starts
flashing fast.
3. Now send a PC (program change) or CC (control change) command on the desired MIDI channel
(e.g. PC #1 on MIDI channel 1) to the amp.
4. When receiving data, it gets confirmed by the store LED flashing 3 times short.
5. Now the amp is only listening to the MIDI channel (e.g. channel 1) that was formerly sent to the
amp.
MIDI channel OMNI mode (receiving data on all 16 channels).
This is how it works:
1. The Clean channel must be engaged.
2. Press and hold the Noise Gate push button for about 2 seconds until the Noise Gate LED starts
flashing fast.
3. Press and hold the store button for 2 seconds while the Noise Gate LED is flashing fast.
4. It gets confirmed by the store button LED flashing once long.
5. Now the amp is receiving data from all channels.
MIDI Controller Numbers
The E606SE accepts CC # messages to control most of the built-in functions, so that MIDI
controllers #7 for example can be used to mute the output signal. This controller sends an Amp
Mute command when assigned a value of 64 to 127. A value of 0 to 63 deactivates the Amp Mute
command, thereby unmuting the amp and reactivating at its current Master volume setting. Most
controllers switch functions on (64 to 127) and off (value 0 to 63), while other controllers are using
specific values from 0 to 127. One of these is CC #35, which controls the Reverb mix.
