Quick Start

For those of you who prefer to play now and read later, we've included this Quick Start section to get you up and running.

Connect Cables:

Connect guitar into the Bright or Normal input jacks. Connect an un-shielded speaker cable to the extension speaker cabinet outputs (located on the rear panel of the Millennium) and run into the desired extension speaker cabinet (such as the Johnson Amplification J212 or J412) with a 4 ohm minimum load resistance requirement per channel.

Connect J-3 Multi-Function Footswitch:

Connect the included J-3 Footswitch to the J-3 insert jack on the rear panel of the Millennium. The three footswitches can be programmed to perform several functions. From the factory, the footswitches will A-B Channel Switch and change presets Up and Down. For information about the J-3 Footswitch please refer to page 67.

Connect Johnson Amplification J-12 Foot Controller (if applicable)

Connect the output of the optional Johnson Amplification J-12 to the Foot Controller jack found on the rear of the Millennium. Make sure that connection is made before applying power to the Millennium.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT ANYTHING BUT THE OPTIONAL JOHNSON AMPLIFICATION J-12 OR DIGITECH CONTROL ONE FOOT CONTROLLER TO THE FOOT CONTROLLER JACK ON THE REAR PANEL! DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE DEVICE.

MIDI control of the Millennium can be done by connecting MIDI controller devices to the MIDI In jack on the rear panel.

Apply Power:

Note: When applying power to the Millennium, it is recommended that the <Input> and <Master Volume> knobs be turned down prior to powering up the unit.

Adjust Input and Output:

Use the <Input> level knob on the front panel to adjust the input level, so that the loudest guitar signal occasionally lights the clip LED indicator. Now adjust the <Master Volume> level knob on the front panel of the Millennium to the desired output level .

Select Speaker Output Voicing:

Page 1 of the Utility menu lets you select the speaker cabinet voicing to be used whether it be a 4x12 or 2x12. This selection can be done by simply pressing the <Utility> button, and then turn the <Page> knob until you reach page 1. At this point, use the <3> knob to select either the 4x12 or 2x12 speaker cabinet voicing. Once the selection has been made, press the <Preset> button to return to Preset mode.

Select Preset:

Begin playing your guitar, and choose any preset using the <Preset/Effect> wheel. User Presets 1-100 are duplicates of the Factory Presets. They are user-programmable. You can modify and store them as you want. Factory Presets 1-100 are not user-programmable and cannot be overwritten.
