		Warning – dangerous situation

Intended use:

This device is intended for use as an external controller for the Origin Effects RevivalDrive pedal. Any other use or use under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may result in personal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for damages resulting from improper use.

Safety:

DANGER!
Risk of injury and choking hazard for children!
Children can suffocate on packaging material and small parts. Never allow children to play with packaging material or the device. Always store packaging material out of the reach of babies and small children. Always dispose of packaging material properly when it is not in use. Never allow children to use the device without supervision. Keep small parts away from children and make sure that the device does not shed any small parts (such as knobs, rubber feet) that children could play with.

NOTICE!
Possible staining due from rubber feet!
The plasticiser used in the manufacture of the rubber feet on this product may react with floor coatings and result in permanent dark stains after some time. If necessary, use a suitable mat to prevent direct contact between the device’s rubber feet and the floor.

Using the TRS jack cable supplied, connect TRS socket on the Footswitch to the F/SWITCH socket on the RevivalDRIVE pedal.

Note: Any standard TRS jack cable can be used in place of the supplied cable.
The RevivalDRIVE Footswitch is compatible with RevivalDRIVE, RevivalDRIVE Custom, RevivalDRIVE Hot Rod and RevivalDRIVE Hot Rod Custom pedals.

The RevivalDRIVE Footswitch allows additional control of the RevivalDRIVE’s mid-boost and dry blend functions.

MID-ENGAGE

Setting the MID ASSIGN switch on the RevivalDRIVE to F/SWITCH, allows you to apply the adjustable mid-boost to whichever channel is currently selected.
The mid-boost is applied to both the DRY and O.D. signals mixed by the BLEND control.
The mid-boost function is not active when the pedal is in bypass mode.

BLEND OVERRIDE

This footswitch “overrides” each channel’s BLEND control from the signal path. With the BLEND knob set for a mix of DRY and O.D. signals, engaging BLEND OVERRIDE effectively removes the DRY component and reverts to a 100% O.D. signal. This offers additional flexibility akin to having another channel on your amp.

For example, with the channel controls set for medium gain and the BLEND knob at 12 o’clock, engaging the BLEND OVERRIDE footswitch lets you go from an organic clean tone with a little grit to a fully overdriven sound for aggressive rhythm playing. By carefully adjusting the DRY GAIN trimmer, you can control the change in volume – up, down or unity gain – that occurs when engaging BLEND OVERRIDE.

As an alternative to the above example, you could set up your core drive tone with BLEND OVERRIDE engaged, then transition to a cleaner “edgy” solo tone of greater volume by disengaging BLEND OVERRIDE and turning the DRY GAIN control up.
