GTX65 Three-Channel Guitar Amplifier with Advanced DSP

Using the Footswitch for More Presets:

The Crate three-button footswitch supplied with the GTX65 allows access to an addi- tional DSP preset for each channel of the amplifier. When the footswitch is connected to the amplifier as shown below, the “original” DSP presets are active for each channel when the #3 footswitch LED is illuminated. These are referred to as “DSP Bank ‘A’.” When the #3 button is switched and the LED is out, a second DSP preset may be stored and recalled for each channel - “DSP Bank ‘B’.”

NOTE: DSP Bank “B” presets are only accessible when the footswitch is connected to the amplifier. When the footswitch is not connected, only DSP Bank “A” is accessable.
