ADVANCED MODES & CONFIGURATIONS
During normal operation, when an FX loop is inactive the signal coming out of that loop's
SEND jack and any signal coming into that loop's RETURN jack are muted. The Switchblade
Pro enables you to disable either mute in both FX loops for an even broader range of
switching applications.
UNMUTE SEND A/B
– This can be useful for any application where you want the INPUT
signal routed to SEND B to stay active when FX loop A is selected (or vice versa). For
example, you may use this as a “dry out” to send to another amp or effects chain and want
it to stay active at all times.
How to disable SEND A/B mute:
1.
Select the channel whose SEND you want to unmute with the A/B footswitch
(RED = A, GREEN = B).
2.
Press and hold the A+B footswitch for at least 3 seconds.
3.
The A+B LED will blink rapidly to signify that the selected FX loop’s SEND has
been unmuted.
How to re-enable SEND A/B mute:
1.
Select the channel whose SEND mute you want to re-enable with the A/B
footswitch (RED = A, GREEN = B).
2.
Press and hold the A+B footswitch for at least 3 seconds.
3.
The A+B LED will blink slowly to signify that the selected FX loop’s SEND
mute has been re-enabled (normal operation).
UNMUTE RETURN A/B
– This can be useful for any application where you want the signal
plugged into the RETURN B jack to stay active when FX loop A is selected (or vice versa).
For example, you may use this to retain the tails of a delay or reverb in FX loop B when
switching back to FX loop A.
How to disable RETURN A/B mute:
1.
Select the channel whose RETURN you want to unmute with the A/B
footswitch (RED = A, GREEN = B).
2.
Press and hold the BYPASS footswitch for at least 3 seconds.
3.
The BYPASS LED will blink rapidly to signify that the selected FX loop’s
RETURN has been unmuted.
How to re-enable RETURN A/B mute:
1.
Select the channel whose RETURN mute you want to re-enable with the A/B
footswitch (RED = A, GREEN = B).
2.
Press and hold the BYPASS footswitch for at least 3 seconds.
3.
The BYPASS LED will blink slowly to signify that the selected FX loop’s
RETURN mute has been re-enabled (normal operation).
Note:
If you disable the muting of both the SEND and RETURN of a given FX loop, that loop
will remain always active regardless of the state of the footswitches/LEDs. If this is an
undesirable state for you, see the factory reset instructions below.
FACTORY RESET
– If you were experimenting with unmuting the SENDs and RETURNs and
want to reset the Switchblade Pro back to its original, out-of-the-box factory settings,
perform these steps:
1.
Unplug the AC adapter power cable from the Switchblade Pro.
2.
Hold down the A/B footswitch and plug the AC adapter power cable in,
continuing to hold down the A/B footswitch for at least 3 seconds.
3.
If all of the LEDs blink rapidly and the Switchblade Pro shows both the A/B
LED and BYPASS LED as RED, then the factory reset was successful.
