Connecting signal processors:

• Connect the device's INPUT to the FX LOOP

SEND jack and its OUTPUT to the RETURN jack.

• Activate the FX LOOP via the FX ON button on

the front panel or the Stageboard.

• Adapt the FX loop level to the signal processor's

level, if necessary. Press the FX SEND LEVEL

button for effects devices like stomp boxes that

are designed for guitar signals. If the button

is not depressed, the signal level remains at

standard line level, appropriate for most

rack-mounted multi-effects processors.

• In parallel mode, use the LEVEL knob to set

the volume of the effect signal.

NOTE:

Some signal processors introduce phase cancel-

lations that are detrimental to the overall sound.

In this case, set the effects loop to FX SERIAL.

The effects loop now operates like a conventional

serial loop – in other words, you'll have to adjust

the balance of levels between the original and

processed signal at the processor.

TIP: If you choose not to connect a signal

processor or effects device to the FX loop, you

may connect another instrument or audio source.

When you use the RETURN circuit as a second

input channel in this way, the FX-MIX knob

becomes a balance control to determine

he relative volumes of the guitar signal and

the other sound source.

4.3 THE RED BOX

DI OUT -

ALL-TUBE TONE TO THE MIXER

The balanced RED BOX

DI OUT allows you to

connect TriAmp

MK II's output signal directly to

a mixing console, for the smooth, rich sound of

a miked-up cabinet without the hassles of actually

using a microphone. The integrated RED BOX

circuitry is in-line with the speaker output for

optimum audio results, allowing the character

of the connected speaker to come through to

as great a degree as possible.

WARNING:

Never run the amp without a load (a connected

speaker cabinet), even in a recording situation.

Doing so risks serious damage to the amp's

all-tube output stage.

NOTE:

Speakers, in combination with a tube amp's

output transformer, may demonstrate microphonic

properties. If your amp's master setting is extreme-

ly low and the PA is very loud, you may encounter

feedback through the DI OUT circuit.

This effect does not occur at normal stage

volumes. However, we do recommend you use

the STANDBY switch rather than turning the MASTER

down to silence your amp during breaks. If this

feedback problem does occur at some point,

simply turn the amp's master volume up.

The speaker then loses the microphonic

properties and the feedback will stop.
