Revival Footswitch
Revival Footswitch
Connecting the Revival Footswitch (sold separately) to the F/SWITCH input at the rear of the pedal
provides two further functions.
MID-ENGAGE:
With the pedal’s MID ASSIGN switch set to F/SWITCH, this allows you to apply the
adjustable mid boost to whichever channel is currently selected.
Please note: the MID BOOST is applied to both the DRY and O.D. signals mixed by the BLEND control.
The MID BOOST function is not active when the pedal is in BYPASS mode.
BLEND OVERRIDE: This footswitch “overrides” or removes each channel’s BLEND control from the signal
path. With the BLEND knob set for a mix of DRY and O.D. signals, engaging the BLEND OVERRIDE
effectively removes the DRY component and reverts to a 100% O.D. signal.
This offers additional flexibility akin to having another channel on your amp. For example, with the channel
controls set for medium gain and the BLEND knob at 12 o’clock, engaging the BLEND OVERRIDE
footswitch lets you go from an organic clean tone with a little grit to a fully overdriven sound for solos.
By carefully adjusting the DRY GAIN trimmer, you can control the change in volume – up, down or unity
gain – that occurs when engaging BLEND OVERRIDE. For example, you could set up your core drive
tone with BLEND OVERRIDE engaged, then transition to a cleaner sound of equal or greater volume by
disengaging BLEND OVERRIDE and turning the DRY GAIN control up.
