BluGuitar Remote1

From Straight Forward Amp To An Individual Guitar System
REMOTE1 is the optimal pedal controller (foot operated controller) for the BluGuitar® AMP1. You can comfortably navigate through all the important AMP1 functions by foot as well as accessing all the additional features. From choosing preset sounds to programming custom sounds, the REMOTE1 can do it all! Midi-compatible devices can be connected to the MIDI Out connector and the REMOTE1 presets can then be used to select the device's programs.

And as if that wasn't enough, with the optional BluGuitar LOOPERKIT ™ you can integrate external effect pedals into your setup. In short, with the help of REMOTE1, you can turn your AMP1 into a professional, programmable guitar system. BluGuitar offers all the components - you decide how far you want to go!

Plug And Play! With The Comfortable Footboard For The AMP1
Turn your AMP1 into a 4 channel amp with additional functions like 2nd Master, PowerSoak and programmable MIDI Out. Whether you use the REMOTE1 as an old school footboard for standard function switching, or to choose between complex presets is totally up to you.

Connect the REMOTE1 to the REMOTE-input on the AMP1 using a standard mono instrument cable. This cable transfers the control signal and supplies power to the REMOTE1. An additional power supply is unnecessary. When REMOTE1 is connected to AMP1, two different modes are available using the Mode/Store switch.

Direct-Access-Mode
Direct-Access offers access to: Clean, Vintage, Classic, Modern, Boost, Reverb, FX-Loop, 2nd Master Volume and PowerSoak. Direct-Access is active when the Mode/Store switch is not lit.

Preset-Mode
When the switch is pressed, it will light up and the Preset-Mode is activated. Here you can save 36 presets in 4 banks of 9 presets each. Pressing the Mode/Store switch again puts you back in the Direct-Access-Mode.

The Pedal Switcher Makes Using FX Pedals Easy!
Effect pedals have never been as popular as they are today. Trying to get excellent sounds and intuitive operating can often only be achieved using a combination of different, high quality effect pedals. As soon as multiple effects come into play, things start getting complicated and switching sounds turns into a tap dance.

The BluGuitar LOOPERKIT expands the REMOTE1 to a pedal switcher with four True-Bypass-Loops.

If a loop is activated, the signal is sent through the loop and the connected effect pedal(s). When not activated, the signal goes directly through the Pedal-Switcher, by passing the effect pedals not in use (True-Bypass) to maintain signal strength. This minimizes secondary noise and loss of signal.

The combination of active pedals, and the AMP1's sound settings can be saved as presets and accessed by the single press of a switch on the REMOTE1.

2nd Master Volume
REMOTE1 offers you a second master volume, that can be activated per foo tpedal in Direct-Access-Mode, and can be adjusted (reduced) in a 10dB range. Now you can use all your sounds at two different volumes.

1. Master Volume on : Rhythm volume
2. Master Volume off : Solo volume

Any volume for your presets The REMOTE1 can store all of your settings, including every Master Volume preference to one of the 36 presets. This allows you to store any volume required for your sound, in the Preset-Mode.

The Level-Control sets the 2nd Master Volume Level when the Master Volume switch 8 is lit. Turning off, or switching to another functions-patch automatically stores your setting.

PowerSoak
For many, there is nothing better than the sound of a totally cranked tube amp with a saturated output. However, the volume necessary to achieve this is usually unbearable! Resourceful technicians have developed something to reduce the output: the PowerSoak.

When PowerSoak 9 is activated, the Level-Control knob controls two sections: Home (0.15 – 2 watts) and Stage (7 – 100 watts).

MIDI Out
REMOTE1 has a MIDI OUT jack, that can be used to integrate and control external MIDI effect devices integrated in your setup.

Every preset in the REMOTE1 sends a fixed MIDI Program Change Command to the MIDI OUT jack (on MIDI channel 2) to switch between programs on your external MIDI device. The MIDI commands in the REMOTE1 are preassigned. Assigning the programs must therefore be done using MIDI Learn or Midi-Mapping in the Midi device itself.

LOOPERKIT Pedal Switcher
REMOTE1 is the first amp foot controler that can act simultaneously as a pedal switcher. To utilize this function, the BluGuitar LOOPERKIT must be installed in the REMOTE1.

This saves space on the pedalboard and allows for easier operation. The LOOPERKIT has four True-Bypass-Relay-Loops you can add your effect pedals to. When the LOOPERKIT is installed, you can determine which of the four loops is active while programming your sound presets, and store the information in the preset.

The LOOPERKIT consists of an installation kit that has to be installed in the REMOTE1, and a Breakout-Box. The effect pedals that are to be integrated into the set-up are connected to the Breakout-Box with short patch cables. It has one input, one output and 4 of each send and return jacks for the 4 loops.

Tip: sometimes it can be useful to connect several pedals one after another in a loop if the effects are only to be used for a certain sound or channel with the AMP1. For example, you can use various modulation effects and a compressor for your clean sound only. You can then activate the modulation effect pedal when needed using the effect pedal bypass-switch.
