Reamping
The amplifier can be switched into Reamping Mode via the Blackstar INSIDER
software. This is a non-storable setting and will be switched off either when the
USB cable is removed, or when the amplifier power is switched off.
When activated, Reamping Mode allows the amplifier to accept a pre-recorded, dry
guitar signal via USB and return a fully processed audio signal. This return signal can
then be captured using recording software on the connected PC or Mac.
Advanced Features
Your ID:CORE amplifier has further advanced features which are aimed at more
in-depth users who enjoy getting the most from their amplifier. These features do
not have independent controls on the front panel of the amplifier, but instead are
accessed by using the Tap switch (11) as a 'shift key' and using other controls to
access these features.
Independent Music Playback Volume – Tap + Volume
Under most circumstances, the volume of your music playback via the MP3/
Line Input is effectively controlled directly from your playback device. For quieter
environments and general convenience you can also further reduce the music
playback volume of your ID:CORE amplifier by simply holding down the Tap switch
(11) whilst turning the Volume control (4) on the front panel.
USB Recording Level – Tap + Gain
As stated in the USB Audio section (see page 15), the output level of the USB
audio signal from your ID:CORE amplifier can be controlled independently of your
amplifier's speaker volume by holding down the Tap switch (11) whilst turning the
Gain control (3) on the front panel.
Effect Speed/Time – Tap + Effects Level
As stated in the Effect Level section (see page 10), the speed/time of the modulation
and delay effects can be controlled by holding down the Tap switch (11) whilst
turning the Effect Level control (10) on the front panel. This can be very useful for
setting a specific accurate effect tempo instead of using the Tap switch.
