Rear Panel
1. Mains Input
The supplied detachable mains lead is connected here. The lead should only be
connected to a power outlet that is compatible with the voltage, power and
frequency requirements stated on the rear panel. If in doubt get advice from a
qualified technician.
2. Mains Fuse
The value of the Mains Fuse is specified on the rear panel. Never use a fuse of the
incorrect value or attempt to bypass it.
3. H.T. Fuse
The value of the H.T. Fuse is specified on the rear panel. Never use a fuse of the
incorrect value or attempt to bypass it.
4. Output Valves Fuse
The value of the Output Valves Fuse is specified on the rear panel. Never use a fuse
of the incorrect value or attempt to bypass it.
5. Footswitch
The supplied footswitch is connected here. The footswitch enables you to switch
between the Clean, Crunch, Overdrive 1 and Overdrive 2 channels.
6. MIDI Thru
Any MIDI data received at the MIDI In socket is passed out of the MIDI Thru socket
so that other MIDI devices can be placed in a chain. The MIDI Thru socket also
serves as a way of dumping Channel Select/Program Change data to a suitable MIDI
storage device. Refer to the MIDI Channel Switching section for more details. Always
use a good quality MIDI lead.
7. MIDI In
If channel switching using MIDI is required, connect the MIDI device here. Refer to
the MIDI Channel Switching section for more details. Always use a good quality MIDI
lead.

MIDI Dump Out
You may wish to back up the MIDI channel select settings so you can transfer them
to another amplifier, for example. To do this you will need a MIDI Sysex librarian,
which is usually a piece of software running on a PC or MAC with a suitable MIDI
interface.
1. The unit must be in standby (Power (34) on and Standby (33) off), with no lead
connected to the Input jack and the MIDI Thru on the rear of the amplifier
connected to the MIDI In of the recording device.
2. Simultaneously press and hold the Crunch (8) and OD2 (21) Select switches.
After 2 seconds the LED for OD1 (16) will flash continuously to indicate that the
unit is in MIDI Dump Mode.
3. Prepare the receiving equipment for the transfer. For example, if using a MIDI
Sysex librarian this must be put into file receive mode.
4. Start the file transfer by pressing and quickly releasing the OD1 (17) Select
switch. During the file transfer the OD1 (16) Select LED will flash quickly. When
the flashing stops the transfer operation is complete and the amplifier will revert
to normal operation. The file should be saved as a MIDI System Exclusive file.
MIDI Dump In
To load in previously saved Program Change assignments:
1. Connect the MIDI Out of the MIDI recording device to the MIDI In on the rear of
the amplifier and use the MIDI Sysex librarian to send the previously stored MIDI
System Exclusive file.
The amplifier overwrites the current Program Change assignments with the new
ones. If the operation completes successfully all four channel LEDs flash quickly four
times. If the dump is unsuccessful or incomplete the four LEDs will flash slowly in an
alternating pattern and then the unit will revert to normal operation.
Note:
During reception of the System Exclusive file the amplifier will temporarily
cease to pass data to the MIDI Thru socket.
Restoring Factory Settings
To return the amplifier to its factory default state:
1. With the amplifier Power off, press and hold in the Crunch (8) and OD2 (21)
Select switches.
2. While holding in the switches turn on the amplifier. After 2 seconds all channel
select LEDs flash once to confirm the factory defaults have been restored.
