Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the RG-16 audio loop and function switcher. The RG-16 has been designed to give you
total control of your amplifier, effects devices, effects pedals or other electronic equipment from a single MIDI
footswitch.
The RG-16 provides eight audio loops, eight function switches and a professional quality audio buffer, all in a compact,
single rack space design. Using the RG-16, you can control virtually any amplifier or effects unit – more than with any
other MIDI-based switching controller. A wide range of custom cables are available to connect the RG-16 to the vast
majority of the amplifiers on the market, and we are continually developing new cables to support additional amplifiers
and equipment.
RG-16 Features
Eight audio loops for effect switching (four grouped in series, four independent)
Eight function switches for amplifier control (channels, reverb, effects loops, etc.)
A high-quality audio buffer that can be placed anywhere in the audio path
Two 8-pin DIN jacks allow you to control up to two amps simultaneously
Works with all MIDI footswitches
Responds to Program Change and Continuous Controller messages
Easy programmability via front panel buttons and LEDs
Up to 256 programs can be saved in memory
High-quality relays for optimal sonic performance, compatibility and reliability
Supports both latching and momentary switching modes
Electrically isolated jacks prevent ground loops and allow safe control of multiple amplifiers
Provides phantom power to compatible MIDI devices when used with 7-pin MIDI cable
