playing (via the channel button or the optional footswitch).
* This is particularly useful when using two instruments (in a live situation) that require different Gain
sensitivity, or require different EQ settings. For example: an upright bass and an electric bass, or a fretted
and fretless bass etc. No need to go “back to the amp” to adjust the settings for bass # 2!
• Rear Panel Operation
The rear panel of your Epifani amp has several useful features that, when used properly, will enhance the
overall experience with your amp.
1.) Tuner out - Plug an instrument cable between this jack and your digital tuner. You can use the Mute
Switch on the front panel to access the quiet tuning mode. Tuning quietly makes everyone around
you happy and being in tune will help advance your career!
2.) Effect Send/Return - Using shielded instrument cables connect the “Effect send” to your effect’s
input. Connect the output of your effect to the UL Amp Series “Effects Input”. Using the Serial/
Parallel switch you can choose run your effects “in line” with the dry signal or “along side” of the
dry signal. Typically a reverb would be run in parallel and a chorus or fl anger would be run in
series. To practice along with pre-recorded music you could take the output of a tape player, CD
player or MP3 player and plug it into the effect return jack.
3.) Pre-amp out - Using a shielded instrument type cable this output could be used to send a signal
to a power amp or to send an unbalanced signal to a recording device.
4.) Direct Out - Using a “microphone” cable with XLR connectors you can send a balanced signal to
the house PA or for direct injection into a recording device.
5.) Direct Out Level - You can control the volume of the Direct Out jack for the cleanest possible feed
to an external device.
6.) Pre/Post switch - By placing the switch in the “pre” position you are essentially sending an
unenhanced or “fl at” signal out of the Direct Out. In the “post” position the Direct Out is outputting
the EQ settings you have chosen.
