MIDI Usage
The A
MP
G
IZMO
can receive MIDI messages from any MIDI controller.
You can store different switch settings for MIDI program numbers 1
through 128 in MIDI banks 0 and 1. When a Program Change message
is received on the correct channel, the A
MP
G
IZMO
will automatically
recall the saved settings for the given program number.
To set up for MIDI use, simply connect your MIDI controller to your
A
MP
G
IZMO
’s MIDI In jack. The A
MP
G
IZMO
is set for MIDI Channel 1
by default. Either make sure your MIDI controller is set up to transmit
commands on Channel 1, or use the A
MP
G
IZMO
’s setup mode to
change which MIDI channel the A
MP
G
IZMO
responds to. See the Setup
Mode chapter for more details.
To save a program setting, perform the following steps:
1. Using your MIDI controller, select a MIDI program number.
2. Using the A
MP
G
IZMO
buttons, select your amp’s channel and
functions.
3. Hold down the Write button on the A
MP
G
IZMO
until the
LEDs flash. This should take about 3 seconds.
That’s all it takes. You can repeat this for any or all of MIDI program
numbers 1 though 128.
If the lights don’t flash after a few seconds of holding down the Write
button, it means that your A
MP
G
IZMO
did not receive the MIDI
Program Change message. Check your MIDI cable connection, and
make sure that the MIDI controller and A
MP
G
IZMO
are set to the same
MIDI channel.
Now that your settings have been saved, you can recall your settings by
using your MIDI controller to send a Program Change message again.
The A
MP
G
IZMO
will call up your saved settings and set your amp’s
channel and functions whenever it receives a MIDI Program Change
message.
