FX Loop & Reverb Latching Push Switch
This switch will completely bypass the FX Loop & the internal Digital Reverb when pushed in. This gives
the purest possible signal path through the amplifier.
FX Loop Latching Push Switch
This switch will bypass the FX Loop when pushed in. The Reverb can then be independently switched
ON/OFF using the front panel toggle switch or the supplied latching footswitch.
Effects Loop
The V40 has an effects loop, which is a simple, low impedance, series loop.
The SEND socket is for connection to the input of effects units. On the V40 it is a lower impedance
version of the signal that appears at the INPUT. Use the send to connect to floor pedals or rack effects
such as Delay, Chorus and Reverb etc. Effects such as Overdrive, Fuzz, Wah Wah and Tuners often give
better results plugged into the Instrument Input on the front panel. The Send socket can also be used on
its own to send a signal to another amplifier.
The RETURN socket is for connection to the output of effects units. When not used it is internally
connected to the SEND, therefore the EFFECTS LOOP can be ignored if not in use. It can also be used as a
small signal ‘Slave’ input from another amplifier but DO NOT plug an amplifier’s speaker output into the
Return socket or very bad things will happen.
