to suppress the signal within the 9 to 5 o‘clock range. The further you twist the knob to the right, the higher
the signal level at which the Noise Gate kicks in. If you set the knob to the 5 o‘clock position, the Noise Gate
reacts to extremely high noise levels, meaning that there‘s not much of a margin between the guitar signal
and background noise.
FX Loop
The FX Loop can be controlled remotely via a conventional footswitch connected to the responsible foots-
witch jack or via the ENGL Z9 connected to the S.A.C. port. In the signal path, the FX loop is located post
preamp and pre the two power amp Master knobs.
FX Loop Send
Connect the FX-Loop Send output to a signal processor‘s or an effect pedal´s input/return jack using the
shortest possible shielded cord equipped with 6.3mm (¼“) plugs.
FX Loop Return
Connect the input to a signal processor‘s or an effect pedal´s output/send jack using the shortest possible
shielded cord equipped with 6.3mm (¼“) plugs.
FX Loop Balance
FX mix control for the FX Loop. When the knob is set to Dry, the amp signal is routed through with no
processed signal (0% Wet balance) added to the mix. Twist the knob clockwise to blend in the processed
signal (parallel/passive, wet balance 1-99%, depending on knob position). When the knob arrives at the
Effect position, only the wet signal (that is, the processed signal generated by the connected effect device)
is patched to the power amp (serial, 100% Wet).
Note:
Set this knob to Dry when the FX Loop is not in use! Settings between 9 and 3 o‘clock position reduce
the signal level. In the event of contact corrosion of the FX Return socket, volume fluctuations may occur.
Line Output – 0 dB Poweramp Signal
This port taps the power amp‘s output to provide a line out signal configured at a level of about 0 dB. The
frequency response is identical to that of the power amp output signal. In other words, its frequency res-
ponse is not compensated or corrected. You can feed this signal to another linear power amp. Another op-
tion is to patch it through an outboard filter to emulate a speaker, or for example into the ENGL CABLOADER
IR-Loader with an integrated microphone and poweramp simulation), and feed this externally processed
signal to a recording device or PA system.
