Options for controlling the ENGL 570 Preamp remotely:

3. Two-way footswitch (e.g. ENGL Z-4): 

Connect two-way 

footswitches to the amp by plugging a stereo ¼ " cord 
into jack no. 59. 
Functions: Ch.1 / Ch.2 (Main Channels) and 
Sub Channel I/II Clean - Crunch and Lead I - Lead II. 
This means you can't activate sub channels directly, 
and must first switch to the other Main Channel. 
As an alternative to a two-way footswitch, you can connect 
a MIDI switcher (the ENGL Z-11 will do nicely) to this jack (59) 
to control the two switching functions.

1. MIDI foot board (for example, the ENGL Z-12 or ENGL Z-15 pictured above):  

Connect 

the foot board to the preamp using a standard 5-pin DIN cable. All 5 terminals of both 
connectors must be wired in a 1:1 configuration: MIDI data transmission requires two wires,
and the ENGL MIDI foot board uses two more wires for purposes of power supply.
This combination affords access to all of the amp's 128 MIDI presets. 
The Z-15 foot board also lets you control Master Volume Mute via MIDI controller.

2. ENGL Custom Z-9 Footswitch:

 This special foot board connects to the preamp 

via a ¼” stereo cord plugged into the Serial Amp Port (58) or via a 5-pin DIN cord 
plugged into the MIDI IN port (55). The former option affords switching access 
to channels and two special functions (for example, 

Hi Gain

 or 

Mega Lo Punch

). 

In the latter setup, the Z-9 serves as a MIDI foot board that accesses 
the first 10 MIDI presets.
