Using a serial effects connection with the PS1 power stand

Note: Connecting an effects unit in serial requires a TRS split "insert" cable (with a ¼-inch TRS
connector on one side, and two mono ¼-inch phone connectors on the other). This type of cable
is readily available at most musical instrument stores and on the Internet.
1. Insert the TRS plug into the Channel 1 Insert jack on the PS1 power stand.
2. Connect the ¼-inch mono plug (labeled "send", "ring", or "right") to the input of the
effects processor.
3. Connect the other ¼-inch mono plug (labeled "return", "tip", or "left") to the output of the
effects processor.
4. Adjust the effects level and mix of the effects processor.
Note: A very high output from the effects processor can overload the input of the PS1 power
stand. If the LED on the remote turns red, even if the channel LEVEL control on the R1 remote
control is below the 12 o'clock position, reduce the output level of your effects processor.
Note: The effects processor does interrupt the audio path. This may result in no audio output if
the effects processor is turned off. To use a "clean" signal, do not turn the effects processor off,
but put it in bypass mode.
