To substitute an I.R., you simply can delete the existing one, and drag and drop or copy/paste 
the new one in the folder.  
Remember: only one I.R. can be place into a cabinet folder. You cannot place two or more in a 
folder for the Amp Central, in that case, will not process the incoming signal.  
 
Once you've uploaded your selection of I.R.'s, you need to eject the mounted AMPCENTRAL 
devicefrom  your  PC/MAC  as  you  normally  would  do  with  any  another  external  devices,  by 
simply clicking the EJECT button.  
 

FILE TYPES 

The AMP CENTRAL can only read 48Khz, 24bit, MONO I.R

.'s 

 

Any other attempts to upload other I.R.'s will result in no sound. We highly suggest to make a 

copy of the AMPCENTRAL device before you copy/past or substitute I.R.'s. 

 

OUTPUTS 

 
On the back of Amp Central there are two sets of outputs. One is unbalanced (jack connectors), 
the other one is fully balanced. They are the same outputs but in a different format, XLR can be 
very convenient to quickly wire the Amp Central to FOH mixers or soundcards. 
There’s no global output volume since the INPUT knob will act as the one and only volume for 
the entire system.  
 
If you’re experiencing any clipping or an output signal that is too low, please check the “INPUT 
SECTION” of this manual in order to fully understand how to achieve a proper clip free and high 
level signal. 
 
 

MIDI  

 
Amp Central has a MIDI IN and MIDI THRU port, to change I.R.'s to your desire.  
The first operation, is to choose the midi channel on which Amp Central will receive the midi 
signal,  and  in  this  case,  you  can  use  channel  1  to  16.  The  A.C.  is  shipped  with  default  midi 
channel #1 as the default.  
To change it you need to  

 

press  “Virtual  Cabinet”  knob  for  three  seconds  until  the  BANK/CABINET  blinks  and 

immediately release it; 

 

select your desired midi channel, by following the instructions and by moving the “Virtual 

Cabinet” knob to the left or right; 

 

press the “Virtual Cabinet” knob again to store the desired midi channel.
