VTX350H Three-Channel Guitar Amplifier with Advanced DSP

Using the Footswitch:

The special Crate four button footswitch supplied with the VTX350H performs a vari- ety of functions. The footswitch allows remote channel selection, remote Tap/Save for each channel, and allows access to an additional DSP preset for each channel of the amplifier. Use only the supplied Crate four button footswitch with the VTX350H. A stan- dard 5-wire midi cable (supplied) may be used to connect the footswitch to the amplifier.

The “original” DSP presets are active for each channel when the #4 footswitch LED is illuminated. These are referred to as “DSP Bank ‘A’.” When the #4 button is switched and the LED is off, a second DSP preset may be stored and recalled for each channel - “DSP Bank ‘B’.”

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