uSInG THE MuTE FooTSWITCH

The top mounted mute footswitch adds another dimension by enabling
you to turn off the signal going to your stage amp and the PA system by
simply depressing the footswitch. Once muted, the tuner output remains
active to let you tune in silence without bothering the audience.
The mute footswitch also lets you silently
disconnect a guitar or bass to exchange
instruments on stage. This is particularly
benefi cial as it eliminates the need to set your
amp on standby or have the audio engineer
turn down your channel on the PA system
each time you want to change instruments.
When the outputs are muted, the red LED
adjacent to the footswitch will illuminate.
