Chapter 2 Getting Started With StealthPedal
2.1 StealthPedal Layout and Connections
1) Expression Control: this is the main continuous control available with
your StealthPedal. It can be configured to control any of the parameters
of AmpliTube models or to send standard MIDI control changes to any
software.
2) Built-in Switch: configurable switch placed under SteathPedal Expression
rocker.
3) Hi-Z/Line IN L&R (1&2): high quality BALANCED INSTRUMENT (Hi-Z)
inputs that automatically switch to unbalanced when a regular 1/4” unbal-
anced guitar cord is connected, perfectly works with Guitar, Bass (passive
or active) and Keyboards or any other audio device outputting unbalanced
or balanced audio signals. Connect a regular 1/4” guitar cord for Hi-Z
unbalanced usage or a 1/4” TRS when connecting to balanced lines.
4) VOLUME/MIDI Control Knob: adjusts the volume for Audio Outputs. Also
can be used as a MIDI control when used with the included MIDI Control
application, which disables its use as a volume control.
5) External Expression Pedal: connect an external expression to this jack by
using a 1/4” TRS cable.
6) External dual footswitch: connect an external dual footswitch (or two
separated footswitches) to this jack by using a 1/4” TRS cable. Note: you
may use third-party expression or footswitch pedals or those available
for purchase from IK Multimedia, made specifically for use with your
StealthPedal.
7) USB Host Computer Connector: connect the included USB cable to this
connector. The other side of the cable will be connected to the Mac or PC
computer you will use with StealthPedal.
8) PHONES Jack: connect a pair of stereo headphones here. Volume is controlled
by 4 (when used as a Volume control). Even when headphones are connected
sound will still be present at the balanced/unbalanced output jacks.
9) BALANCED/Unbalanced OUT: high level balanced stereo output to con-
nect StealthPedal to mixing desks, audio interfaces or amplifiers. This
connection (when using a balanced TRS cable) will give a clean and noise
free signal even when driving long cables in noisy environments (like live
shows). Volume is controlled by 4 (when used as a Volume control).
10) Status / Indication LEDs: these three LEDs can show StealthPedal connec-
tion status, Audio level and Tuning.
