E - 4-CABLE METHOD

This switch determines the behavior of ReVolt’s effects loop alongside its bypass behavior. See the
section Supercharge your amp with the 4 cable method for comprehensive setup guidelines for this
feature.

F - CAB SIM

Enables the analog cabinet simulation applied to the BALANCED and Headphone outputs of ReVolt by
engaging the CAB SIM switch (I Position). For ReVolt Bass, the analog simulation is inspired by an
Ampeg SVT-810E cabine

G - AUX IN

Connect your music player here and control the playback level via the source’s controls. This input is
stereo.

H - Headphone Output

The headphone output is a 1/8” TRS jack socket. This output is calibrated for headphones rated up to
100Ω. ReVolt’s signal is mono - the AUX IN can only be heard in stereo via headphones. The cabinet
simulation applied with the CAB SIM switch can also be heard through the headphone output.

2022/12/12 17:37 9/16 ReVolt Bass - User Guide

1 - IN

Connect your instrument here. The input is a ¼” TS (unbalanced) jack socket.

2 - SEND

Use this unbalanced output to connect to effects pedals or to an amp’s Instrument input when the 4-
CABLE METHOD switch (E) is activated. The SEND output is a ¼” TS jack socket.

When the 4-CABLE METHOD switch is activated, and when ReVolt is bypassed (no active channel), the
SEND outputs the dry/unaffected guitar signal to the connected amplifier/device.

3 - RETURN

Use this unbalanced input to connect the output of any external effects to ReVolt, or connect the
amp’s effects loop SEND to this input when the 4-CABLE METHOD switch (E) is activated. The RETURN
input is a ¼” TS jack socket panel-mount connector.

When using effects pedals (delay, reverb, etc.), ensure the 4-CABLE METHOD is set to O. The
processed signal of the effects will be heard when a channel is active on ReVolt.

4 - OUT

This unbalanced output (¼” TS jack) sends the dry signal of ReVolt’s channels - the CAB SIM is never
applied to this output.

5 - MIDI IN/OUT

The MIDI In/Out sockets are ⅛” TRS jack panel-mount connectors. One TRS 1/4” jack to MIDI type A
adapter cable is provided with ReVolt.

By default, ReVolt sends and receives Program Change (PC) messages from 1 to 7 . Edit all MIDI
messages through ReVolt’s dedicated MIDI Setup menus (see the MIDI SETUP section of the manual
for more details)

6 - BALANCED OUT

Use this balanced output to connect directly to your audio interface, monitors or mixing desk. Apply
speaker simulation to this output with the Cab Sim Switch (F). The GND/LIFT switch eliminates
unwanted hum caused by ground loops when activated.

2022/12/12 14:25

7 - MAINS POWER ADAPTOR

Connect the provided power supply here. ReVolt needs 12V DC, 600mA and a center negative polarity
to work.

USE CASES

1. Go Direct - On Stage & In The Studio

Use ReVolt to go-direct to mixing desks audio interfaces when on stage or recording respectively.

Using the BALANCED OUT with the CAB SIM engaged, send your complete guitar tone out of ReVolt.
Further refine your tone by adding effects in the FX Loop of ReVolt.

You can also use a C.A.B. M+ connected to either the effects loop or OUT output to add our class-
leading DynIR cabinet emulation to your rig.

2. Supercharge Your Amp With The 4 CABLE METHOD

https://wiki.two-notes.com/ Printed on 2022/12/12 17:37


2022/12/12 17:37 11/16 ReVolt Bass - User Guide

If your amp is equipped with an effects loop, add ReVolt’s 3 channels to your amplifier’s channel
specification. Engage the 4-CABLE METHOD on ReVolt, and combine ReVolt’s effects loop with the
amp’s using the following connectivity guidelines.

1. Connect your instrument/pedalboard to ReVolt’s IN


2. Connect ReVolt’s SEND to the amp’s input
3. Connect the amp’s effects loop send to the ReVolt’s RETURN
4. Connect ReVolt’s OUT to the amp’s effects loop return

When ReVolt is bypassed, the dry bass signal passes through the amp’s input and all the amp’s
features/tone shaping are unaltered by ReVolt’s all-analog processing. When a channel is activated on
ReVolt, the signal passes through the instantiated ReVolt preamp and companion tone stack, feeding
only the amplifier’s power amp.

3. Take Your Tone Further With Wall of Sound

Connect the OUT output to your audio interface’s instrument input and combine ReVolt’s channels
with Wall of Sound for enhanced cabinet simulation and additional post-processing effects.

Alternatively, disengage the CAB SIM, and use the BALANCED OUT with your audio interface’s mic
preamp to record / process your signal with Wall of Sound.

Using this setup menu allows the user to view the current Firmware version installed on the ReVolt
unit as well as options to action a Factory Reset.

Upon entering this setup menu, the current Firmware Version number is displayed on ReVolt’s
channel LEDs.

To action a Factory Reset, press Channel A’s footswitch 3 times. With each press, the Channel LED
color shifts to white. After completing the sequence, the tube window will show white and the Channel
LEDs remain on for 2 seconds indicating that the factory reset has occurred correctly. Once the
Factory Reset has been actioned, the unit will resume to display the current Firmware Version across
the channel LEDs.
