10. TheGigRig Pro-8 power
Before powering TheGigRig Pro-8, connect the output(s) to your amplifier(s) first.
This will prevent ear-blasting hum from your amplifier when you connect the input.
It is not necessary to power down the TheGigRig Pro-8 when installing new effects
pedals, simply select bypass for silent installation.
POWER OUT
On the right and side of the GigRig is a 9V power output; this output is only for use
with vintage low current effects such as distortion and fuzz effects it is extra
smoothed to give a very clean supply; it also has an electronically healing fuse to
protect your vintage effects from any possibility of damage.
Note it may take a few seconds for this fuse to recover after overload.
A short circuit on this output will cause the main power supply to shut down. The
green light on the Generator supply will flash until the short circuit has been
removed.
This output can deliver 1.5A continuous power.
USING OTHER 9V SUPPLIES.
This is not recommended. Other 9V supplies may appear to work; however, it is likely
that problems will occur. TheGigRig Pro-8 is fused internally at 6.3A.
EMERGENCY USE:
If TheGigRig Pro-8s 9V power supply is not available. You can, in an emergency,
power your effects pedals separately from the GigRig, TheGigRig Pro-8 can then be
powered temporarily using a 9V regulated power supply with an output capability of
1A or more.
