1. Introduction to the RepliTone MP

The Rocktron RepliTone MP is a 24-bit DSP professional guitar preamp & direct recording

device containing 16 different amp emulation models and 128 user programmable presets (15 user

presets on the front panel with a total of 128 presets available via a Rocktron MIDI footcontroller).

The RepliTone MP also offers effect algorithms and superb sound quality. Full MIDI implementation

and a user-friendly operating format ensure that designing unique and useful preset sounds is as

simple as possible.

In addition, the RepliTone MP also features:

•Advanced Speaker Simulation, which provides a strikingly realistic

approximation of a miked speaker cabinet at line-level specifically for

"direct recording", and mixer input to play directly over a PA system or

headphonelistening.

•Rocktron's patented HUSH®noise reduction provides noise reduc-

tion while playing and complete silence when not.

•High-quality digital effects, including:

- Reverb - Phaser

- Tremolo (1 & 2) - Flanger

- Detune - Compression

- Chorus - Delay

- Wah - Rotary

•Effects Loop, MIDI In Out/Thru with Phantom Power for MIDI

6. Front Panel

POWER switch

On/Off switch - Note: when powering up your rack be sure to turn all preamps and effects on first before

you turn on your power amp. When powering down your rack set up always turn the power amp off first.

INPUT jack

This ¼" jack accepts the output from the guitar.

MASTER VOLUME

Controls overall output level of the amp and also headphone volume.

PRESET switch

Selects one of 16 channels, as desired. MANUAL position uses all current control positions to determine

sound as opposed to stored values. These correspond to MIDI program change numbers 1 - 15. 113 more

user presets are accessible only via MIDI program changes (16 - 128).

AMP select switch

Selects one of 16 available Amp Emulations.

STORE/EXECUTE Button and LED

This button is used to store values into the RepliTone's presets when settings are altered - see "Storing

Changed Preset Parameters" for more information on this procedure.

GAIN control

Adjusts the amount of drive. Higher settings increase distortion and sustain.

RECALL LEDS

Allows you to get back to your "original" setting. Whenever a knob is turned (even just slightly) these

LEDs will light. To get back to the "original" setting (not the knob position - but the actual setting of the

control) start turning the knob you changed. When the LEDs go "out" the knob is at its original (or

stored) setting. If you pass the original setting and only one LED is lit, turn the knob in the direction of

the arrow. For example:

Left LED is Lit:

Turn the knob slowly to the right until both LEDs are out.

Turn the knob slowly to the left until both LEDs are out.

LEVEL CONTROL

Controls the relative volume level of the preset (or channel). Used to balance between two different

sounds.

BASS, MID and TREBLE controls

The BASS, MID and TREBLE controls are like any standard guitar amp. Levels are adjusted over the

ranges appropriate for the amp emulation selected.

REVERB LEVEL control

Adjusts the amount of reverb. (Reverb is always available.)

213

1316

DELAY LEVEL control

Adjusts the overall level of the delayed signal at the output relative to the direct signal and other effect

signals. (Delay is always available.)

DELAY TIME button and LED

Adjusts the current delay time. To set the delay time, tap the button twice at the interval desired (up to

one second). The LED flashes to indicate the set time. For the longest delay time tap button only once.

EFFECT ADJUST control

Adjusts one effect parameter, depending upon the effect selected (see Effect Select Control section (16)

for more detailed information).

EFFECT SELECT EFFECT ADJUST knob controls.

7. Rear Panel

PRE-AMP OUT (To Power Amp)

Jacks for connection to a power amp (we suggest the Rocktron Velocity 100 power amp

- 2x50 watts - stereo). These are stereo output jacks that should be connected to a

power amp input.

MIDI THRU/OUT

This standard 5-pin DIN connector can be connected to the MIDI IN jack of another

device via a standard MIDI cable. There are limitations to the number of devices that

can be chained (or series connected) in this fashion.

NOTE: There is a limit to the number of devices which can be chained together

(connected in series). With more than three devices, a slight distortion of the MIDI

signal can occur (due to signal degradation) which can cause an error in MIDI signal

transmission. Should this problem arise, a MIDI Thru box can be used which connects

directly to the MIDI device. The MIDI Thru box transmits MIDI information through

multiple connectors to the devices receiving MIDI. MIDI cables should not exceed 50

feet (15 meters) in length.

MIDI IN and Suggested Footcontrollers

This 7-pin DIN connector is specially designed to receive MIDI program changes from a

Rocktron MIDI Footcontroller and to provide phantom power to that controller.

Although, you may use a standard 5-pin MIDI cable and any MIDI footcontroller to run

this unit, we suggest that you use the Rocktron RMM900 MIDI Cable and the Rocktron

MIDI Mate or MIDI I.T. footcontrollers (available at your Rocktron dealer). We have

designed the RepliTone MP to have a 7-pin Din connector where Pins 6 & 7 carry

phantom power to a Rocktron MIDI Mate or MIDI I.T. footcontroller. Using this set up

you can power your footcontroller directly from the RepliTone MP thus eliminating the

need to plug in your footcontroller on stage. This will eliminate additional wires and

cables from the front of the stage.

This connector must be connected to the MIDI OUT jack of the transmitting MIDI

device via the Rocktron RMM900 7-pin DIN MIDI cable or a standard 5 -pin MIDI

cable, or the MIDI THRU jack of the preceding device (if this unit is within a chain of

MIDI devices).
