Unpacking and Inspection

Your MidiVerb 4 was packed carefully at the factory, and the shipping carton was
designed to protect the unit during shipping. Please retain this container in the
highly unlikely event that you need to return the MidiVerb 4 for servicing.
The shipping carton should contain the following items:
• This instruction manual
• Alesis MidiVerb 4 with the same serial number as shown on shipping carton
• AC Power Supply Adapter
• Alesis warranty card
It is important to register your purchase; if you have not already filled out your warranty
card and mailed it back to Alesis, please take the time to do so now.

Basic Connections

The MidiVerb 4 is designed to accommodate a number of applications, whether you
are connecting an instrument directly into it, or connecting it with a mixing console.
Briefly described here are the basic connections to get you up and running quickly.
For more information on connections, please refer to Chapter 2.
• Mono In, Mono or Stereo Out. Connect a mono cord to the [LEFT/CH.1] INPUT
of the MidiVerb 4 from a mono source (Note: the [LEFT/CH.1] INPUT is
normalled to the [RIGHT/CH.2] INPUT). Connect another mono cord from the
[LEFT/CH.1] OUTPUT of the MidiVerb 4 to an amplification system or mixer
input. Additionally, you could connect a second mono cord to the [RIGHT/CH.2]
OUTPUT for use with a stereo amplification system, or two mixer inputs.
• Stereo. Connect two mono cords to the [LEFT/CH.1] & [RIGHT/CH.2] INPUTS of
the MidiVerb 4 from a stereo source , and two mono cords from the OUTPUTS of
the MidiVerb 4 to a stereo amplification system or two mixer inputs.
If connecting to a mixing console's aux sends/returns, you will want to adjust the
output mix of each Program so that the MidiVerb 4 outputs only wet (effected)
signal. This can be done globally for all Programs simultaneously (see page 11).
