When preparing for a new album, guitarists really need a fast and reliable way to compare and reconfigure their many amplifiers and cabinets without the lengthy process of manually swapping cables. Accurate comparisons between the different combinations are near impossible and the time taken between setup changes interrupts workflow. Our design solution to this problem allows the guitarist and producer to sit in the control room sweet spot and remotely configure the amp collection in seconds; they can achieve in a morning what had often in the past taken up to two days or more.
The HeadLine selector unit has 12 illuminated buttons, 8 red and 4 blue. The red buttons are for selecting guitar amplifiers and the blue for selecting loudspeaker cabinets. The loudspeaker connections are continuously monitored. This ensures that there is a functioning loudspeaker present and there is no short or open circuit.
When routing, available speaker outputs will be shown by a dimly lit switch. Unavailable outputs will not be illuminated.
To label each amplifier and cabinet we use a Neodymium magnetic strip set into the case, onto which white magnetic labels are placed (we supply pre-cut strips with a whiteboard pen in a drawstring bag). The strips are cut to size. We have supplied extra labels, so you can keep a collection of pre-written labels or printed tape labels ready for use on a new session.
