Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Mackie Hotwire 

PB-1 multi-function remote pedalboard for the 
Hotwire VT12 professional guitar amplifier.

The PB-1 has a variety of functions includ-

ing channel and bank selection, EFX enable/
bypass, Tap/Tempo setting, tuner select, loop 
recording, and a multi-function Wah/Volume 
pedal. Each of these functions is described in 
more detail later on in this manual.

Connection

The PB-1 comes with a 25-foot Cat5 Ether-

net cable (the same cable used to connect a 
computer to a network). Simply connect the 
cable between the “PEDAL” jack on the back 
of the VT12 and the “AMPLIFIER” jack on 
the back of the PB-1, as shown below. Power 
is provided to the PB-1 through the cable. No 
external power or “wall-wart” is required.
