PHANTOM POWER jack

This 2.5mm PIN jack offers the ability to power Rocktron MIDI foot controllers from a 7-
pin MIDI cable which connects from the Rocktron MIDI foot controller to the MIDI IN
jack on the rear panel of the MultiValve

. This eliminates the need to find an AC outlet

near where the footpedal would be placed during a performance, or the need to run an
extension cord out to the footswitch. Instead of inserting the AC adaptor into the
"POWER" jack of the footswitch as you would normally, plug it into the "PHANTOM
POWER" jack on the MultiValve

. This will power the Rocktron MIDI foot controller

through pins 6 and 7 of the MIDI cable connecting the two units. A 7-pin MIDI cable
must be used and is available from your Rocktron dealer.

6

MIDI IN/REMOTE jack

This 7-pin DIN connector must be connected to the MIDI OUT jack of the transmitting
MIDI device via a standard MIDI cable, or to the MIDI THRU jack of the preceding MIDI
device (if the MultiValve

is within a chain of MIDI devices). Pins 6 and 7 of this

connector carry phantom power to power a Rocktron MIDI foot controller when a 7-pin
MIDI cable is used.

This connector is also provided for the connection of a Rocktron All Access

MIDI

footswitch, which can be configured as a dedicated remote footswitch for the
MultiValve

. This feature allows the user to access MultiValve

functions and parameters

via the remote footswitch.
