6.6 Store
As discussed earlier, this is the universal programming button. Activating this button twice will
verify an intended program procedure. In case you have pushed this button once by accident, or if
you have started to program and don’t want to anymore for whatever reason, then you can push
any other switch (any switch but the “Store” switch) to cancel the programming procedure. The
previously established program will be preserved. On models equipped with GPS, this will call out
the quickest way to a near by music store.
Chapter Seven: MIDI
7.1 MIDI
MIDI is an acronym for Musical Instruments Digital Interface and is an internationally accepted
communications system between musical instruments (and processors and computers) of all kinds.
We will only need to learn a small portion of this “language” to use the Hagen and its peripheral
MIDI partners. We are going to learn only about “program change”.
7.2 MIDI In
MIDI In is a 7-pole DIN jack. It must be connected to the MIDI Out jack of your foot controller (or
MIDI pedal), or the MIDI Out of any effects unit connected to the pedal directly.
7.3 MIDI Thru
Connect this port to the midi in of other units to continue the MIDI chain
7.4 MIDI Communication
7.4.1 Omni Mode
The Omni mode will allow reading of MIDI information on all 16 channels. It is an easy way to get
into the MIDI system but it is not advisable if more MIDI partners on different channels are in the
same system. Then a certain MIDI channel should be assigned to the Hagen and its program
changes should be restricted to this channel (See 7.4.2). To put the amp into the Omni mode, hold
the “Mute” switch down and activate the “Master 2” switch quickly and then release the mute
switch. The Mute, Master 2, Loop and Store LED’s will now blink to verify that the Omni mode is
being accepted. Channel LED´s should be off. This function needs to be disabled under some
circumstances in order to use single mode automatic or single mode manual.
