Cabbone uses high performance, high cycling, gold contact relays to switch the amps speaker output to either cabinet without adding color to the tone. To ensure safe, stable amplifier operation and smooth transitions, switching is controlled by a timer IC that manages a ramped connection overlap. This ensures a constant load on the output, a major concern with tube amplifiers. As a further safety measure, the Cabbone incorporates a power off feature called SafeMode which automatically diverts the input signal to output 1 if the power supply is ever disconnected or turned off by mistake. To reduce the cable spaghetti between the the amplifier, speakers, pedal board and back, Cabbone is equipped with a Slingshot input and output Slingshot is Radials easy to use remote control system that allows any footswitch to toggle switching of remote devices using just regular guitar cables. The Slingshot remote input can be controlled by either momentary or latching contact closure. To add versatility, the Cabbone also incorporates a Slingshot output that can be used to remotely switch amp channels while switching cabinets. You could for instance connect the Slingshot remote output on the Radial Loopbone to toggle the Cabbone and go from a 2x12 open back to a 4x12 half stack. Connecting the Slingshot output to the amp as well would allow you to change the amp channel at the same time, allowing each cabinet to have its own EQ and gain. Add a Loopbone to the equation and wi
