Tuner Mode - Blackstar ID:CORE STEREO 100 Owner's Manual

15. Master Volume
This controls the overall volume of your amplifier. Turning it clockwise increases the
volume. This is a global setting and is not saved when storing a patch. If the master
volume is at zero this allows for silent recording via the Emulated/Headphone Output
or USB. The emulated level is controlled via the preamp volume.
16. USB
Plug a USB cable in here to connect the amplifier to a Windows PC or Mac.
Blackstar's INSIDER software offers a host of features and can be downloaded
from: www.blackstarinsider.co.uk
See the USB Audio section on page 15 for more information.
NOTE: The amplifier will appear on a personal computer as an audio capture device
within recording software.
17. Manual
Press this switch to toggle between Manual Mode and the current patch. When the
amplifier is in Manual Mode, the sound will reflect the current physical position of the
knobs. This is applicable to the Voice, Gain, Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble and ISF
controls. Any effects that are active when switching to Manual Mode will be turned
off. While in Manual Mode any of the controls can still be modified by an external
source (Blackstar INSIDER software, footcontroller), but this means that the sound
will not represent the positions of the controls on the front panel.
