NOTE: Some signal processors cause phase cancellations that
wreak havoc with the overall sound. In this case, turn the FX
LOOP control all the way to the right (10). The effects loop now
operates like a conventional serial loop—in other words, you'll
have to adjust the balance of levels between the original and
processed signal at the processor. The same holds true whene -
ver you want to use a thoroughly soaked (100% processed)
signal for certain effects programs such as extreme delays or
when you have patched a volume pedal into the effects loop.
TIP:
If you chose not to connect an effects device to the FX LOOP,
you can instead route in the signal of another instrument, a
tape deck or CD player to the RETURN jack. For instance you
could connect a guitar, keyboard, drum machine, tape play -
er, etc. for rehearsals or practice sessions. If you choose to use
the FX RETURN as an additional input, use the FX LOOP knob to
determine the balance of levels between your guitar's signal
and the connected signal source. Another option is open to
you if you do not connect a signal processor: You can use the
loop to set up an additional MASTER volume preset for
the TOUR REVERB. If this sounds like a good idea to you,
proceed as follows:
• Activate the FX LOOP.
• Dial in an alternate MASTER VOLUME setting via the FX LOOP
knob (to the left toward 0 = quieter, to the right towards 10 =
louder).
• You can switch back and forth between the two MASTER
VOLUMES via the FX LOOP footswitch.
4.3 THE LINE OUTPUT OF THE TOUR REVERB
The TOUR REVERB is equipped with a LINE OUTPUT circuit.
The LINE OUT of the TOUR REVERB is designed so that
you can also route the amp's line signal directly to a Hughes &
Kettner RED BOX. The advantage here is that you get a balan-
ced output signal, replete with sophisticated speaker simulati-
on.
TIP:
If you mic your combo or cabinet, try mixing the LINE Out sig-
nal with the microphone signal at the console. Particularly
when the on-stage level is relatively low or when you're playing
softer passages, blending in the LINE Out signal can work won-
ders for your sound. In most cases, you'll end up with much
better tone and the person doing the mixing gets plenty of sig-
nal level to work with.
You can also use the LINE OUT circuit to connect an external
power amp and drive another cabinet.
