Your Options for controlling the ENGL Raider 100 amp remotely:
#1 ENGL Z-9 Custom Footswitch: This specialized footboard connects to the amp
via a 6.3 mm (¼”) stereo cord plugged into the Serial Amp Port - S.A.C. (34).
The Z-9 affords you direct access to the amp's four gain stages (CH 1 / CH 2 merged
with Hi Gain) simply by tapping the four channel switching buttons, and lets you
control two special functions, for example, Mid Boost and Reverb.
#2 A two-way footswitch such as the ENGL Z-4: Connect
dual footswitches to the amp by plugging stereo 6.3 mm
(¼”) cords into jack nos. 35, 36, and 37.
-> CH 1 / CH 2 (Channel 1 / 2) and Hi Gain (1 x Z-4);
-> Master A/B and Mid Boost (1 x Z-4);
-> Main FX Loop and Reverb (1 x Z-4);
As an alternative to dual footswitches, you can connect
a MIDI switcher (the ENGL Z-11 will do nicely) to these
three jacks to control the six switching functions.
