With a MIDI foot controller, you gain access to the presets navigation and even parameter changing in
real time. The Torpedo Live handles both Program Change et Control Change commands.

Playing in silence is a great feature, but at some point you have to listen to what you play! We
present a few options to use at home, in the studio or on stage:

Listen through the headphones out,

1.

Listen on a guitar/bass cabinet plugged to the Torpedo Live THRU output,

2.

Having a local monitoring system on stage, by duplicating the LINE OUPUT with a mixer,

3.

Having in-ear monitors or wedge speakers controlled by a sound engineer.

4.

The THRU, S/PDIF and LINE outputs can be used simultaneously.

When you plug a cabinet to the THRU output, the impedance of this cabinet
is the one that your amplifier sees. In other words, with a 4 Ohms cabinet,
you need to connect the 4 Ohms output of your amplifier. In this
configuration, the load box inside the Torpedo Live is disconnected. This
way, you can override the 8 Ohms only limitation of the Torpedo Live.

4 Stay connected

You may have discovered an idea to use the device in some innovative way. Do not hesitate to come
