RedPlate ShredPlate Operations Guide
The ShredPlate comes complete with a 4 button footswitch and a footswitch cable. The cable
used is a regular MIDI cable and is readily available in any length at most music stores.
LO GAIN – engages the LO GAIN Channel – the footswitch has no effect if the Volume control
on the LO GAIN channel is pulled out (duplicate function) or if the HI GAIN channel is already
engaged (HI GAIN Volume control is pulled out or HI GAIN footswitch button is pressed). The HI
GAIN channel always has priority.
LOOP – (All Channels) Light on = normal operation, Light off = Loop jacks are bypassed,
bypassing all effects in the Loop.
HI GAIN – engages the HI GAIN Channel – the footswitch has no effect if the Volume control
on the HI GAIN channel is pulled out (duplicate function). The HI GAIN footswitch will override the
LO GAIN footswitch. The HI GAIN channel always has priority.
MASTER2 – (All Channels) enables the rear panel Master2 Control (Solo Boost).
1. Check the Standby switch to make sure it is toggled downward for Standby operation.
2. Toggle the main power switch to the up position (this switch is located at the top of the IEC
input module). The front panel pilot light should be lit.
3. Wait one minute and then toggle the Standby switch upwards to the Operate position.
4. POWER OFF – Toggle the main power switch downward, there is no need to go into
standby first although it will not hurt anything.
Your ShredPlate amp has been designed for years of trouble free operation. The vacuum tubes
will need to be replaced over time. We recommend new output tubes every 160 - 240 hours and
new preamp tubes every 320 - 480 hours.
The front and rear panels have a protective finish that can be easily scratched with abrasives
so always use a damp soft cloth to clean them (never use paper towels). The cabinetry can be
cleaned with our super secret tolex cleaner (on a paper towel - 2 squirts of WD-40 and 4 squirts
window cleaner), let your keyboard player try it on his plastic keys, it replicates the feel of a brand
new keyboard, also a great cable cleaner.
