INTRODUCTION

This expanded owner’s manual is a thorough user’s guide to the features and functions of the Rumble LT25
amplier.

As a complement to the Rumble LT25 Quick Start Guide that comes with each amplier, this manual pres­ents a detailed look at the amp’s versatile features. This includes navigation and modication of the onboard
presets, and comprehensive descriptions of the amplier and eect models. It also includes illustrated step­by-step instructions for using Rumble LT25’s onboard tuner, footswitch, USB port and other functions.

While this expanded manual presents the most current version of the amplier, also check back for updated
manual versions that will serve as even more helpful guides as Rumble LT25 and its capabilities evolve.

Be sure to check fender.com/rmware/support regularly for rmware updates that improve and enhance the
Rumble LT25 experience.

PRESET BASICS

Rumble LT25 features 30 sequentially numbered presets. Each preset consists of an amplier and one or
more eects (or, in some cases, no eects). Note that when turning the amplier on, the default active preset
is always factory preset 01. Further, 20 additional presets are available when using the “REPLACE” feature
(page 7).

To scroll through presets, turn the ENCODER; whichever preset is displayed becomes active:

EDITING AND SAVING PRESETS

Presets can be easily edited and, if desired, renamed and saved in place or saved in a dierent location. The
controls of each amplier type can be adjusted, or an amp model can be replaced with a dierent one. Simila­ry, various eects controls can be adjusted, or eects can be removed from or added to a preset.

When a preset is active, the box containing its number is blue, indicating that no edits have been made. Once
an edit is made, the box containing the preset number turns red and the preset title screen will read “UN­SAVED”. When edits are saved, the preset number box returns to blue and the “UNSAVED” title clears.

ACCESSING PRESET CONTENTS

To access the contents of a preset, press the ENCODER. From the top down, the DISPLAY WINDOW will then
show the number and name of the preset, the amplier type in use, and four boxes that organize the eects
used for that preset (if any). These eects category boxes are labeled STOMP (stompbox), MOD (modulation),
EQ and DELAY. When rst accessing preset contents, the preset name and amplier type are highlighted in blue:

settings when returning to the preset after leaving it, or when turning the amplier o and back on again. To
save edited amp control settings, press the SAVE utility button and use the ENCODER to scroll to one of three
options—SAVE, SAVE AS or REPLACE. Each is detailed below.

SAVE: Keeps an edited preset in the same location with the same name. To do this, press the SAVE utility
button and use the ENCODER to scroll to “SAVE”. Press the SAVE utility button again or press the ENCODER. A
brief “PRESET SAVED!” screen will then ash before returning to the original preset screen:

NOTE: When using “SAVE AS”, note that a preset can be moved to a dierent position even if no edits have been made.
Also note that saving a preset to a dierent location permanently deletes the previous contents of the new location.

Whether renaming the preset or not when using “SAVE AS”, a name must be entered by pressing the ENCOD­ER to activate a cursor, then spelling out the name by turning and pressing the ENCODER to scroll through
and select characters. All characters can be cleared by using the ENCODER to scroll to and select “CLEAR ALL”.
When name entry is completed for the new location, save it by pressing the SAVE utility button or by using
the ENCODER to scroll to and select “SAVE”. A brief “PRESET SAVED!” screen will then ash before returning to

REPLACING, ADDING AND DELETING EFFECTS

As noted, each of the four eect category boxes can contain one eect. If an eect is present, it can be re­placed with another eect in that category, or it can be deleted. If no eect is present, one can be added (see

list of Rumble LT25 eect models on pages 13-14). The signal path is Instrument—Stompbox—Modulation—Am­plier—EQ—Delay/Reverb—Speaker, as illustrated at left below.

Note that eects category boxes that already contain an eect have a solid outline, whereas eects category
boxes that do not contain an eect have a dotted outline, as seen in the image at right below:

and back on again. To save a changed, deleted or added eect model, follow the SAVE, SAVE AS or REPLACE
instructions on pages 6 and 7.

SETTING DELAY TIMES WITH THE TAP BUTTON

There are two ways to set delay times for eects in Rumble LT25’s “DELAY” eects category box. The rst way
is to use the “Editing and Saving Eects Control Settings” instructions found on page 9, using the ENCODER
to scroll to, select and adjust individual eect settings, including delay time.

The second way is to use Rumble LT25’s TAP utility button (yellow arrow). If a preset includes a delay eect, the
TAP LIGHT (green arrow) ashes in time with that eect’s default delay time. This time setting can be modied
by tapping the TAP utility button two or more times at the desired tempo, regardless of what screen is shown
in the DISPLAY WINDOW:

IMPORTANT: If an edited delay time is not saved, the eect will revert to its original delay time when return­ing to the preset after leaving it, or when turning the amplier o and back on again. To save an edited delay
time, follow the SAVE, SAVE AS or REPLACE instructions on pages 6 and 7.

RUMBLE LT25 EFFECT MODELS

This table lists the eect models in Rumble LT25, organized into the four categories that appear in each preset—
STOMP (stompbox), MOD (modulation), EQ and DELAY/REVERB. The eects labels used in each preset appear in
the lefthand column, followed by the eects types and a brief description in the righthand column. Note that
STOMP and MOD are “pre” eects; that is, they come before the amp model in the signal path. EQ and DELAY/RE­VERB are “post” eects, placed after the amp model in the signal path.

vertical bars on either side of the longer vertical center bar will illuminate red to indicate varying degrees of
sharpness (to the right) or atness (to the left). When a pitch is precisely in tune, the longer vertical center bar

AUXILIARY INPUT AND HEADPHONE OUTPUT

GAIN

The Rumble LT25 control panel features two 1/8”-inch jacks: an auxiliary input
for connecting external mobile/audio devices and an output for convenient
headphone use.

Note that when using the auxiliary input, volume levels for external devices
are set using volume controls on the external devices themselves (the amp’s
volume controls are for overall volume level only and do not aect individual
volume of external devices connected to the auxiliary input jack). Also note
that when headphones are plugged in, speaker output is muted.

USB PORT

The Rumble LT25 control panel features a USB port for audio recording. Using a micro USB
cable (not included), connect a computer with recording software to this port. No external
driver is needed to connect to an Apple computer. To connect to a Windows-based com­puter, the user must download the ASIO driver setup with Fender Mustang device, avail­able at www.fender.com/support/articles/fender-universal-asio-drive.

Note that although the USB port and the auxiliary input can be used simultaneously, the
USB port cannot be used to record a signal from the auxiliary input.

When recording using the USB port, a gain control is located in the SETTINGS menu func­tion (page 17). To access and use this gain control, press the MENU utility button and use the
ENCODER to scroll to and select SETTINGS; “USB GAIN” will automatically be highlighted. Press the ENCODER on
“USB GAIN” to select it; the surrounding box will turn from blue to red:

new value and return to the MENU function screen:

Note that the “USB GAIN” control in the SETTINGS menu function is the only one that aects USB recording;
the actual physical GAIN control knob on the control panel does not aect USB recording.
