Options for controlling the ENGL Sovereign 100 amp remotely:
3. Two-way footswitch (e.g. ENGL Z-4):
Connect two-way
footswitches to the amp by plugging a stereo ¼ " cord
into jack no. 37.
Functions: Ch. 1/2 Ch. 1/2 (main channels) and
sub channels Clean - Crunch and Lead I - Lead II.
This means you can't activate sub channels directly,
and must first switch to the other Main Channel.
As an alternative to a two-way footswitch, you can connect
a MIDI switcher (the ENGL Z-11 will do nicely) to this jack (37)
to control the two switching functions.

1. MIDI foot board (for example, the ENGL Z-12 or ENGL Z-15 pictured above):
Connect
the foot board to the amp using a standard 5-pin DIN cable. All 5 terminals of both
connectors must be wired in a 1:1 configuration: MIDI data transmission requires two wires,
and the ENGL MIDI foot board uses two more wires for purposes of power supply.
This combination affords access to all of the amp's 128 MIDI presets.
The Z-15 foot board also lets you control Master Volume Mute via MIDI controller.
2. ENGL Custom Z-9 Footswitch:
This special foot board connects to the amp
via a ¼” stereo cord plugged into the Serial Amp Port (36) or via a 5-pin DIN cord
plugged into the MIDI IN port (33). The former option affords switching access
to channels and two special functions (for example,
Hi Gain
or
Reverb
).
In the latter setup, the Z-9 serves as a MIDI foot board that accesses
the first 10 MIDI presets.
