Rear Panel
1. DC Input
The supplied detachable DC power supply is connected here. Always ensure the
Power Switch (12) is in the OFF position before connecting the power supply. The
lead should only be connected to a power outlet that is compatible with the voltage,
power and frequency requirements stated on the power supply. If in doubt seek
advice from a qualified technician.
Optionally, your ID:CORE can also be powered by Blackstar's PB-1 PowerBank
(not supplied). The PB-1 provides portable power for between 4-8 hours with your
ID:CORE, depending on usage.
Programmability
Storing Patches
Your ID:CORE amplifier stores 6 patches (1 patch per Voice setting).
To store the current sound as a patch press and hold the Manual switch for two seconds.
The currently selected Voice LED will flash to indicate the patch has been stored.
Storing a patch will overwrite any previous patch in that location.
Patches can also be stored via Blackstar's ARCHITECT software.
NOTE: Each patch on your ID:CORE must use the Voice setting assigned to that patch
i.e. the Clean Warm patch uses the Clean Warm voice.
Recalling Patches
When in Patch Mode turn the Voice control to choose the desired Voice patch.
Patches can also be recalled via the Blackstar ARCHITECT software or a connected
footcontroller (ID:CORE STEREO 20, 40 only).
NOTE:To recall a patch, the Manual LED must be off to indicate Patch Mode.
Turning the Voice control while the Manual LED is on (in Manual Mode) will only
select the indicated voice.
USB Audio
WINDOWS – The Blackstar Amplification USB Audio Driver is required to work on
Windows. To download the driver please visit:
www.blackstaramps.com/idcorev4-welcome/
MAC – No installation of Audio Drivers are required. Connect your amp directly to
your Mac to use as a plug and play audio interface.
For a guide on low-latency USB recording, visit:
www.blackstaramps.com/usbrecording
NOTE: Always connect the amplifier via a main USB port, often found on the rear
of the computer.
The amplifier will appear as an audio capture device within recording software. The USB
audio signal output level 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 (see the Advanced Features section on page 16).
This will allow you to achieve a strong recording signal level whilst monitoring the output
16
at a lower, more comfortable level, or even silently if you prefer; simply turn the amplifier
speaker volume to zero using the Volume control on the front panel.
The audio output via USB from your amplifier directly to your computer is carried across
four independent, simultaneous channels:
Channel 1: Stereo emulated, left channel – The fully processed guitar sound, with
speaker cabinet emulation. Contains the left channel of the Super Wide Stereo effects.
Channel 2: Stereo emulated, right channel - The fully processed guitar sound, with
speaker cabinet emulation. Contains the right channel of the Super Wide Stereo effects.
Channel 3: Preamp output – The preamp sound of the Voice and EQ stage, taken
before the effects, and without any speaker cabinet emulation. Ideal for use with your
own effects and cabinet emulation plugins from your recording software/DAW.
Channel 4: Unprocessed guitar signal – The signal as it comes out of your guitar.
Record this signal for later use during Reamping (see 'Reamping' section below).
These audio streams can be recorded simultaneously within your chosen recording
software/DAW.
TIP: To record a truly Super Wide Stereo-effected sound – which is faithfully recreated
when playing back your recorded tracks on any stereo speakers – pan the stereo
emulated left channel 100% left in the mix, and pan the right channel 100% right.
Your ID:CORE amplifier can also receive audio input from your computer:
Channel 1: Line input, left channel – Used for audio monitoring or MP3/backing track
playback. Playback through the left internal speaker.
Channel 2: Line input, right channel – Used for audio monitoring or MP3/backing track
playback. Playback through the right internal speaker.
Channel 3: Reamping input – Send a pre-recorded unprocessed guitar signal to your
amplifier for Reamping, when in Reamping mode.
Channel 4: Unused
Reamping
The amplifier can be switched into Reamping Mode via the Blackstar ARCHITECT
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 output 3 and returns a fully processed audio signal on USB
input 1 + 2. This return signal can then be captured using recording software on the
connected PC or Mac. Please be aware that to use Reamping mode you need to have
your recording software set to use ID:CORE V4 as your audio interface.
TIP: Reamping requires a dry guitar track to have been captured at the time of
recording. You can use USB channel 4 on your ID:CORE V4 to record a dry guitar
track alongside Channels 1 and 2, to have the option to reamp it at a later date.
NOTE: If you wish to use ID:CORE V4 in re-amp mode with another interface and
studio monitors you will need to set up an aggregate sound device which will allow you
to use multiple interfaces simultaneously.
On Mac you can create an aggregate device using the operating systems Audio/Midi
preferences.
You can create an aggregate device on Windows using the free tool ASIO4ALL.
