Universal Power Inlet: 

This socket accepts a standard IEC grounded connector supplied with the product.

The unit must be earthed under all circumstances. Input voltages from ~100V to ~240V 50-60Hz can be used around the 
world without need for any fuse or voltage changes to the product.

DI:

This connector is a balanced direct feed primarily go to a PA sound desk. It carries a ground lift switch adjacent to it to 

remove any hum loop problems. There is a source switch allowing the DI output to be sent “PRE” from before any control 
functions on the amplifier or “POST” from after the EQ and FX but before the Volume control and “Output” which is post the 
Volume and all other control functions. This gives the option to send all of the sound including output stage dynamics directly 
to the mix, avoiding the need for microphones. To allow suitable levels to be sent to the desk there is an associated send Level 
control.

USB:

There is standard USB 2.0 audio in/out connector which supports the following:

1) Ability to simultaneously record the RAW untreated sound to the left channel and the full amplifier sound to the right 
channel.
2) Ability to play back USB stereo information to headphones for monitoring.

Tip: Can then be linked from the headphone output back into the Auxiliary input (5) with a 3.5mm to 6.5mm 
stereo jack lead allowing simultaneous USB play back. 

Tip: This feature will also allow external DSP effects on your DAW to use the RAW signal as a left input then the 
effected signal sent directly back to the Aux input for mixing with the amp through signal all via US and without 
affecting your direct sound.

3) Re-Amp Send socket allowing the recorded RAW channel to be sent back to the amplifier input via a standard instrument 

jack lead for re-processing.
