Copying:
1. Select the desired MIDI preset using a MIDI foot board connected to the amp's
(43) port. This is the preset that you want to copy, which is why in geek-speak it is
called the "source."
2. Press the Copy/Write button briefly. It is essential that during this routine you do not
change the settings of programmable functions in the selected source preset. That
Status LED lights up continuously to indicate that Copy is activated.
3. Select the target preset via the MIDI foot board; you have approx. 30 seconds to do
this. (The amp automatically quits Copy mode 30 seconds after it is activated.)
4. Press and hold the Write/Copy button (35) until the Status LED extinguishes, and
then flashes three times in rapid succession. The current settings of all programmable
functions stored in the source MIDI patch (that's the preset you selected first when you
activated ) have now been dumped to the newly selected target preset.
Keep the amp safe from hard knocks and shocks. Tubes are fragile and tend to suffer
when exposed to mechanical stress!
Let the amp cool down before you transport it. Ten 10 minutes or so will do to spare
the tubes.
Tubes take some 20 seconds to warm up after you switch the power on, and about
two to three minutes before they are able to pump out full power. Make a habit of
giving your amp plenty of time to get toasty and of flipping the Standby switch for
short breaks.
Avoid storing the amp in damp or dusty rooms to spare jacks, switches and
potentiometers. If you don't use the amp all the time, I recommend that you drape a
covering over it to prevent the intrusion of dust. Even better, keep it in a transport
cover or flight case.
Never use caustic or scouring detergents to clean the amp's housing, front or rear
panels. Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge with diluted soapsuds or a standard brand of
mild dishwashing liquid instead. Never use solvents they can corrode the amp's vinyl
skin and dissolve the front and rear panel labels. Keep liquids well away from the amp,
particularly the interior of the housing.
Make sure air can circulate at the front and top of the amp to allow for adequate
cooling, which increases component life.
Never operate the amp without an adequate load (a speaker, cabinet or suitable
terminating resistor).
High ambient temperatures place an additional strain on diverse components; so if at
