TIP 6
The switching functions CLEAN / LEAD (14), and the (MASTER ) VOLUME LEVEL
SWITCHING can also be executed via a Looper/switcher or other MIDI devices that feature 2
freely-programmable switching inputs. Depending on the type of MIDI device, you may have to
split the FOOTSWITCH stereo jacks into two mono jacks. Each switching function requires the
mono or stereo contact (see 22 for assignments) and the ground!
NOTE! If the switching and signal grounds are identical in the MIDI device, then you may
encounter a ground loop, especially if the amp and device (e.g. FX processor) exchange signals!
TIP 7
The LINE OUT’s output level is influenced by the following factors: By the input level (GAIN),
the VOLUME control settings for the various channels, to some degree by voicing control
settings, and by the MASTER volume level. First dial in the desired sound combination at the
front panel. Then adjust levels for FX devices and signal processors (if connected). Now use the
LEVEL control to adjust the level. The LINE output is not overloaded until the OVERLOAD
LED illuminates brightly and continuously. You can push the level up to this point to match a
mixing console or recorder’s input level requirement. Use the respective device’s input
sensitivity or gain control to fine-tune level adjustments.
TIP 8
This amp is designed for one speaker cabinet (8 or 16 Z). If you decide to connect additional
speakers, ensure you keep the overall impedance in mind! For instance, if you want to
connect two 8Z systems, you must first connect them in series and then to the amp’s 16Z output.
The
ENGL Speaker Cabinet Extension
offers a number of options, right up to four cabinets.
