e_kusturica Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I have a Marshall 3315. I also can not get the amp switch to work. It seems like it changes the channel. Does anyone have a list of the to the of amps that wont work, And what do you mean by short-sleeved inputs? MPORTANT! Connect EXT AMP 1/2 only to amplifiers that utilize "shortto-sleeve" footswitch inputs. Connecting to any other sort of input could cause permanent damage to both your amp and Helix! If you're not sure if your amp has short-to-sleeve inputs, contact the manufacturer ---------------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kduck Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Are you using a TRS cable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmalle Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Short to sleeve means that stuff is switched when there is a short (resistance close to zero Ohms) between tip and sleeve (and ring to sleeve if two functions can be switched) on the footswitch jack. [Tip, ring and sleeve are the contacts on the 1/4" jack - you probably know about mono TS (tip-sleeve) and stereo TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) cables] The Marshall does that. This does however just mean that nothing will be damaged. It does not mean that it works properly - it might introduce hum (a ground loop) or not switch correctly.
