FOOTSWITCH / MIDI1 / REMOTE 20
Port for both conventional single or double footswitches, and also for
REMOTE1
– the foot controller
that was specially designed to go with
AMP1
– and the MIDI IN adapter
MIDI1
.
AMP1
automati-
cally detects which kind of footswitch or interface is connected! With a single footswitch, you can switch
between Clean mode and the Overdrive channel, which is available via the Overdrive selector switch 1.
With a double footswitch, the boost is also switchable.
When
REMOTE1
and
MIDI1
are connected, this jack port automatically becomes a serial data input
that controls all of
AMP1
s switching and control functions.
REMOTE1
or
MIDI1
enable you (in conjunction with a MIDI controller) to switch the functions
CLEAN, VINTAGE, CLASSIC, MODERN, BOOST, REVERB, FX-LOOP, and additionally to control
MasterVolume and PowerSoak, as well as CLEAN VOLUME and GAIN. To connect
AMP1
with
REMOTE1
, simply use a standard mono jack cable (for example a guitar cable or speaker cable).
NOTE: Apart from (passive) standard footswitches (with and without LED display), you may
exclusively connect the BluGuitar
®
REMOTE1
foot controller or BluGuitar
®
MIDI1
adapters
to this 6.3mm stereo jack port. Connection to another foot controller may cause defects to
this controller and/or to
AMP1
s internal electronics.
ATTENTION: The connecting cable should generally only be plugged in/removed when the
amp is switched off, in order to prevent faulty switching on the amp.

If you want to build an individual programmable guitar system using the MIDI controller of your choice, you
can control
AMP1
using the BluGuitar
®
MIDI1
adapter interface.
This turns
AMP1
s remote port into a MIDI In port. This allows you to recall all of
AMP1
s switching
functions via MIDI program change commands. Additionally, control change commands CC 007 (Master-
Volume), CC 020 (Gain) and CC 030 (PowerSoak) are also received. You put
MIDI1
s adapter inter-
faces port into
AMP1
s REMOTE port: on the opposite end is a 5-pin DIN socket for the MIDI IN. The
interface electronics are powered by
AMP1
, meaning that no extra power supply or cables are required.
Every available switching possibility on
AMP1
can be recalled via MIDI programm change commands,
when the corresponding command is sent from MIDI Channel 1. You can create up to 128 presets by
"MIDI-Learn" assigning.
Select your setting on
AMP1
While the
MIDI1
adapter is plugged in, MIDI-Learn is activated when holding the BOOST switch for a
few seconds. Now fast blinking of the REVERB LED indicates that
AMP1
is waiting for MIDI programm
change command.
When sending any MIDI programm change command within the next 10 seconds, the setting is stored.
The REVERB Led stops blinking. Anytime this MIDI programme change command is send,
AMP1
switches to the desired state.
