OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The advantage of having midi in your guitar amplifier is that it allows your
amplifier and external devices (like FX controllers) to talk with each
other. At last you can press one button to select the amplifier channel,
and choice of effects on multiple devices all at once. The following front
panel switches generate, (and can be controlled) via midi program change
messages:- Channel 1, Channel 2, Channel 3, Volume1/Volume2
The Reverb state can be recalled via midi but does not generate any midi information.
With these features it is possible to assign different effects to each channel and Volume1/Volume 2 state allowing mind bending
amounts of flexibility. The amplifier achieves these features by storing the amplifier switch states at the last received midi
program change.
MIDI ADDRESS: These switches allow you to select the midi channel on which the amplifier will send and receive midi data
on. The default setting of these switches are all set to zero; this is called omni mode, as it will respond to all midi data
regardless of the channel. If you need to respond only to a certain midi channel then you may do so by changing the midi
address as follows.
Each switch has a value (1,2,4,8) If the switch is set down to ‘1’ then the switch is on otherwise it is off. Simply add the values
of all the ‘on’ switches together to get you midi channel number. eg:
Channel 7 = 4+2+1 set to 1 (on), 8 set to 0 (off)
Channel 13 = 8+4+1 set to 1 (on), 2 set to 0 (off)
STORE BUTTON: This button is used to save the amplifier state. The integral led will illuminate whenever the amplifier is
receiving midi data, to store the amplifier state (at the last received midi program) simply press and hold this switch in for
approx two seconds. The led will flash to indicate a successful store operation. The amplifier will store the states of the
Channel, Volume and reverb at the last received midi program change. The next time the amplifier receives this midi program
change via the midi in socket the amplifier will switch to the stored state. Note: The reverb can only be assigned via the FS6 as
there is no front panel switch for this function.
MIDI OUT: This is where the TT amplifier generates its midi information. It is a 7 pin DIN socket supporting phantom
power* Connect to the midi in of an external midi equipped device.
