... Link Channels on the VOX AC-30

The VOX AC-30 has a total of six inputs (2 per channel). Each channel (Brilliant, Normal and Vib-Trem) has a high sensitivity and a low sensitivity input. Most players connect their instrument to the high sensitivity input (when the AC-30 is facing you, the high sensitivity inputs are the furthest from you) on the Brilliant channel. Any of the AC-30’s channels can be linked together (In fact, all three can be linked together if desired). The AC-30’s channels can be linked as follows:

  1. Connect your guitar cable to the high sensitivity input of the channel of your choice.
  2. Using a short, shielded instrument cable, connect the low sensitivity input (of the same channel that your guitar is connected to), to the high sensitivity input of the channel that you would like to link with. (ie: Plug your guitar into the Brilliant channel high sensitivity input. Connect a short, shielded instrument cable from the Brilliant channel low sensitivity input, to the Vib-Trem input. Voila! You have linked the Brilliant channel and the Vib-Trem channels.)

* Tip- When linking the AC-30’s channels, a cool phase cancelled sound will occur when both linked channels volume controls are set at the half way mark.
