Power

This is a plug for connecting the Alesis Model P3 +9VAC power supply (supplied). The power supply is then connected to an AC outlet delivering a nominal 120VAC. The correct power supply must be used AT ALL TIMES. Any other power supply might create a fire risk and/or permanently damage your unit. This damage would NOT be covered under your warranty.

Footswitch

This is a 1/4" stereo phone jack which connects to one or two momentary (not latching) footswitches, either normally-open or normally-closed.

•When one footswitch is plugged into the Footswitch jack, it will function as a Bypass footswitch. When the Footswitch is pressed, the display will read “bYP”, the display will dim, and the MicroVerb 4 will stop producing effects. If the footswitch is pressed again, effects output will continue.

•Two footswitches can be connected if a simple adapter cable is used, similar to an Insert cable:

When this setup is used, the footswitch connected to the Tip functions as a Bypass footswitch. The footswitch connected to the Ring functions as a Control footswitch. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Footswitch”.

MIDI Out/Thru

This is a 5-pin DIN standard MIDI plug which connects to any MIDI compatible equipment such as a keyboard or another effects device. It is provided for sending system exclusive commands for storing programs. It also relays all messages received on the [MIDI IN].
