The Mono switch

The MONO switch, located between the input
connectors, allows you to select whether the
Reamp HP accepts a stereo or a mono input
signal.
When this switch is pressed in, the Reamp HP accepts a stereo
(left-right) input and sums both channels together equally to feed the
¼" OUTPUT for Reamping. When the MONO switch is left in the out
position, the Reamp HP will ignore the left channel of your source device
and only allow the right channel to pass through the Reamping circuit.
As a general rule of thumb, if you are sending a stereo audio track to the
Reamp HP you should set the MONO switch to the in position. If you are
sending a mono audio signal (like a guitar DI track) to the Reamp HP,
leave the MONO switch set to the out position. Then in your recording
software pan the source track all the way to the right, or assign it to the
right output of your audio interface. An easy way to remember this rule
is to send mono audio tracks to the Right output channel for Reamping.
Connecting to your pedals and amplifier
The 1/4" TS Output
You can also insert effects pedals into the signal chain in between the
Reamp HP and your amplifier to give you more ways to experiment with
your audio signal.
To complete the Reamping process you will need to record the resulting
signal from your amplifier, so the final connection required is to place
a microphone on the amp and plug it into the mic input on your audio
interface for recording.
The Level control and gain-staging
The LEVEL control on the Reamp HP sets the
amount of attenuation applied to the signal
before it feeds the OUTPUT for Reamping.
This is useful because the outputs on your
audio interface may be capable of producing
higher signal levels than a pedal or amplifier is
designed to accept.
Radial Engineering Ltd.
The OUTPUT jack provides an instrument-
level, high-impedance, unbalanced signal
that is optimized for connection to guitar
pedals and amplifiers. Use a standard 1/4" TS
instrument cable to connect this output to your
guitar amplifier.
