EFFECTS LOOP CONNECTIONS 

 

EFFECTS LEVEL/MIX – Sets effects return level in SERIES mode, effects blend amount in PARALLEL mode. 

EFFECTS RETURN – Effects loop return jack. Connect to the effects output. Also used as power amp 
input for return of external effects or other signal sources such as a guitar preamp. The Effects button on the 
footswitch can function as a volume boost switch even without effects in the loop. Simply set loop MODE 
switch to SERIES and adjust LEVEL for the desired level of volume boost. 
 
EFFECTS SEND – 

Effects loop send and preamp out jack. Connect SEND to your effects device input or 

use as 

output for recording and slaving.

 

 

HI/LO LEVEL - Sets overall SEND and RETURN level (LO = -10dB, HI = 0dB). Use HI for most rack effects. 
Use LO level for pedals or sensitive rack effects. 

SERIES/PARALLEL MODE – Sets loop for SERIES or PARALLEL operation. See FAQs at  

www.sfdamp.com

 for a complete explanation about Series and Parallel loop operation. 

BYPASS - Activates EFFECTS LOOP. With footswitch connected, the BYPASS switch must be set to OUT 
for footswitch to operate. 

FOOTSWITCH – Connector for footswitch controller FC-5S. 

GROUND SWITCH, AC MAINS AND FUSES 

 

GROUND SWITCH – Select position which yields quietest operation. With a properly wired AC outlet and 
factory supplied AC cord, this switch will not produce a noticeable difference. 

AC MAINS INPUT –

 

Connect to a grounded outlet in accordance with the voltage and frequency specified 

on the rear panel of your amplifier.  
 

 

Use only the factory supplied cord set or a UL approved equivalent type.

           

 

               

 

MAINS FUSE – Protects the amplifier from electrical faults. Replace only with type and rating specified 
on the rear panel of your amplifier. 

 

DC FUSE – Protects the power supply and output transformer from electrical faults. Replace only with type 
and rating specified on the rear panel of your amplifier. 
 

 Warning! Replace only with same fuse type and rating.
