SansAmp™ Direct Out
For recording in a home studio or pro facility, the SansAmp XLR Output is like having
a built-in direct box. The SansAmp circuitry not only captures the warm, rich, natural
harmonics and sweet overdrive characteristics inherent to tube amplifiers, its
speaker emulation encompasses all aspects of multiply-miked tube amp rigs. So
you can plug straight into the board and get the same sound that comes out of the
Trademark 60 directly onto tape. If you need to consider family and neighbors, you
can defeat the internal speaker by plugging a dummy cable either into the Speaker
jack or the Headphone jack. You can then use headphones through your mixer.
For live gigs, you can use this output direct into the PA system and you won’t need a
microphone in front of the amp. In larger venues, you’ll be able to utilize the PA moni-
tors to supplement your stage volume.
Ground Lift
Connects or disconnects the ground circuits between the XLR Output of the amp and
the mixer. We recommend starting with the ground lifted. If necessary, connect the
ground by pushing the button in.
Effect Loop
The Effect Loop allows you to connect external effects between the pre-amp and
power amp section of the Trademark 60. And with the Footswitch, you can remotely
activate them. You can then keep the effect(s) either on top of the amp for easy
access, or stashed neatly in the back of the amp.
Connect the input of your effect to Send; output of your effect to Return. We recom-
mend that time-based (i.e., chorus or delay) effects be inserted in the Effect Loop and
external distortion/wah pedals be placed between the guitar and the Trademark 60.

Trademark 60s to increase your stage volume, adding a remote volume control, as
well as how to hook-up two Trademark 60s for stereo.
TRIPLE-FUNCTION FOOTSWITCH (included)
Unlike most amps which require a custom
multi-pin connector, this Footswitch is
engineered to utilize
any
standard 1/4”
instrument or speaker cable. You can
easily replace the included cable should
you lose it, or you can easily purchase a
different cable length to suit your
particular needs.
The Footswitch alternates between
channels, activates the Boost/Reverb
function, and engages the Effect Loop.
Corresponding LED indicators let you
know the status of each switch. The
Footswitch is powered via the cable,
so no batteries are required. Replacement Footswitch (Model #TM60-FSW) is avail-
able through your local Tech 21 authorized dealer. In a pinch, you can use any stan-
dard alternating footswitch to change channels. In this case, be aware that the Effect
Loop and Boost/Reverb function will not be switchable and they will remain on as if
in manual mode.
