PROGRAMMING BANKS WITH THE JR-5 FOOTSWITCH
Besides manually controlling the JX44 inputs or outputs, the JR5 also has the ability to program and store its
own set of four banks. The following steps outline this procedure:
• Hold down the MUTE footswitch for 8 seconds.
• The MUTE LED indicates the bank you are currently programming by the number of blinks. Select the
desired combination of guitar inputs/amplifier outputs using the footswitches 1 thru 4. Hit the MUTE
footswitch to write the bank to memory and advance to the next bank.
• Repeat until all four banks are setup and stored. Hold the MUTE footswitch for 3 seconds when finished.
RECALLING BANKS
• Hold the MUTE footswitch for 3 seconds to enter BANK mode. The STATUS LED on the JR-5 will illuminate,
indicating BANK mode is active.
• Use the footswitches 1 thru 4 to recall the four banks from the JR-5's internal memory.
• You can exit BANK mode at any time by holding the MUTE footswitch for 3 seconds, until the STATUS
LED turns off.
THE MIDI INPUT
The JX44 features built-in MIDI compatibility for use with MIDI footswitches and controllers. This allows you to remotely
control the instrument inputs and the amplifier outputs from a single device. To use these devices with the JX44, connect
their MIDI output to the rear panel MIDI IN of the JX44 using a standard 5-pin MIDI cable.
MIDI CONFIGURATION
The JX44's MIDI channel selection and configuration is set via the 8 DIP switches on the rear panel. It can be set up to
respond to an individual MIDI channel (1-16), or put into OMNI mode to respond to messages sent on all MIDI channels
simultaneously. The DIP switches also determine whether the JX44 responds to MIDI Program Change or Control
Change messages. DIP switch details can be found on the following pages.
THE DEFAULT FACTORY DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
The JX44 ships with Dip switches 1-4: DOWN, and 5-8: UP. This configuration
means the JX44 will respond to MIDI messages on all MIDI Channels (OMNI
mode), and the JX44 will respond to Control Change messages only.
