PEDAL MAP

CONNECTIONS

We recommend that Inspire be placed after your preamp or drive pedals but
before any delay-based eects (echo, reverb). If you are using the overdrive
channel of your amplifier, the best result will be achieved by placing this eect in
the eects loop.

The POWER JACK accepts a standard (5.5 mm OD x 2.1 mm ID) center-negative
pedal power adapter (not included). The power adapter must be between 9 V and
12 V and capable of supplying at least 100 mA.

Inspire monitors the voltage from your power adapter and will notify you if:

• The voltage is too low, the LED blinks twice per second. Bypass will be enabled
to prevent any unwanted behavior due to insucient voltage.

• The voltage is too high, the LED blinks five times per second. The voltage will be
internally limited to protect the pedal.

The FOOT SWITCH bypasses the eect. The LED lights when the eect is active.
Bypassing the eect does not turn o power to the pedal.

Inspire implements relay bypassing (i.e., “true bypass”). This is the most appropri­ate type of bypass for this eect in most cases.

The input and output connections are independent. You may—for example—use a
mono input with stereo outputs or stereo inputs with a stereo TRS output.

The INPUT JACKS (right side) accept inputs directly from your instrument,
amplifier eects loop output, or other eect pedals via standard 1/4” (6.35 mm)
phone connectors.

• Input 1 only accepts a mono input.

• Both Inputs 1 & 2 accept a stereo input.

• Input 2 only accepts a stereo TRS input.

Important: Inputs 1 and 2 should not be used with two discrete signals, such as
two dierent instruments.

The OUTPUT JACKS (left side) supply output to another eect pedal, an amplifier,
or eects loop return via standard 1/4” (6.35 mm) phone connectors.

• Output 1 only supplies a summed mono output.

• Both Outputs 1 & 2 supply a stereo output. Using both outputs creates

a stereo signal from a mono input.

• Output 2 only supplies a stereo TRS output.

HARMONIC DETUNE

Low-frequency detune and high-frequency tri-chorus is even more subtle and
sounds great with heavy overdrive.
