SEND Level Control
This effects loop has a Send Level control to make sure your effects
volume is optimal. Always make sure to check this knob if you are experi-
encing any overly loud, or quiet effects - or level issues of any kind.
If your effects start clipping - you are driving the loop too hard with this
control.
The master volume controls on the amp also work as return signal con-
trols, so they will need to be adjusted once your send level is set up in
order to drive the power amp to your desired volume.
Note: The level controls on each channel will also affect the send level
being sent from the effects loop - when one is set higher than the rest
you will find your signal changes when using that channel. Be sure to test
each channel & the send level coming from the effects loop. For this
reason it is normally preferable to set the level of your channels first then
adjust your effects loop send level.
FX Loop In/Out
In order to put the effects loop into the signal path, it needs to be turned
on first (See 4.1). The effects loop, once turned on, can be put in & taken
out of the guitar signal path in a few ways:
1)
The front panel toggle switch, when held for 2 seconds will toggle the
loop in & out. This method of toggling the loop is designed for footswitch
preset setting (See 7.1) but can be used for FX Loop in/out toggling as the
user requires from the front panel of the amplifier when the footswitch is
not plugged in. Note: When the FX Loop in/out is toggled from the front
panel by holding the switch, the LED will flash 4 times when it is in, & 3
times when it is out of the signal path.
2)
The foot switch, when not in preset mode, toggles the effects loop in &
out of the signal path when the FX Loop is turned on & button #3 of the
footswitch is pressed. The footswitch LED #3 will illuminate when it is in, &
turn off when it is out of your signal path.
3)
The FX Loop can also be controlled via MIDI & CC commands from
external equipment. Simply program the amp for MIDI programs or use
CC commands to do so. (See Section 6)
FX Loop Hook up
First, you need to hook up your effects units to the amplifier. The send
jack will need to be connected to the input of the first (or only) effects unit
in your chain. The out jack on the effects unit (or last pedal in your chain)
will then connect back to the return jack on the amp.
Next, turn on the amp & turn the effects loop on by pressing the FX Loop
toggle switch up on the front panel. You should see the red LED light up
to indicate that the effects loop is now on & in the guitar signal path.
Adjust each channel’s level control to your liking & set your send level
control & master volume as above.
Note: If you hear no sound - your effects loop level control knob is proba-
bly set at zero!
