Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION PREAMP LIVE has been designed from the ground up to be the ultimate digital preamp modeller for use in a live situation. Every control feature has been carefully thought out to provide the best experience for live performance. Based on our popular range of MICRO PREAMPS, PREAMP LIVE lets you carry 12 independent preamp channels of your choice everywhere you go for a whole array of different amp tones right at your feet. -

Page 7: Internal Signal Chain
FX LOOP MOOE B MOOE A Serial CONTROLS PREAMP LIVE has been designed primarily with live performance in mind. The controls have been laid out to feel intuitive, familiar, easy to navigate and adjust on the fly. Channelcontrols Master controls Footswitches For sake of this manual I’ve separated the controls into 3 distinct groups. -
Page 8: Channel Controls
Channel controls All of these knobs control parameter settings that are specific to each Preamp channel. The LED’s surrounding these controls show the current value of each parameter (See “PEDAL LAYOUT” section of this manual). The LED’s surrounding the control knobs, display the current settings 100% Simply rotate the Knob for the parameter setting you wish to adjust (See “BOOST”... -
Page 9: Master Controls
All of the master controls are global settings which are independent from the PREAMP channels and remain fixed during operation unless adjusted. This provides an easy way to incorporate PREAMP LIVE into various different setups without having to adjust the channel settings you’ve saved. -
Page 10: Footswitches / Channel Selection / Saving Presets
Footswitches / Channel selection / Saving Presets There are 12 channels in total inside PREAMP LIVE. These are organised into 3 banks with 4 channels on each. So you could consider each bank almost like a different 4 channel head and each footswitch of the PREAMP LIVE as a different channel within that head. -
Page 11: Bank Selection
BANK C = FOOTSWITCH 3 + 4 YELLOW The colour of the CHANNEL CONTROL LED’s will indicate which BANK is currently selected. After selecting a different bank the PREAMP LIVE will wait for you to select a channel within that bank before changing the sound. Saving All Settings are saved per channel. -

Page 15: Mode A (Serial)
MOOE A Serial MODE A is a traditional serial FX LOOP that comes after the PREAMP section of PREAMP LIVE. This is ideal for using external effects units that you want to switch in and out with different preamp channels. -
Page 16: Mode B (A/B)
FX LOOP MOOE B MODE B is a special FX LOOP that will bypass the digital preamp section of PREAMP LIVE and replace it with the analog preamp section of your amplifier. This allows you to connect PREAMP LIVE up to an amplifier head or combo with 4 cables and use the preamp section of the head/ combo instead of the digital PREAMP when the FX LOOP is active. -
Page 17: Tone Capture
(or preamp pedal) by combining one of the MOOER PREAMP models with a TONE CAPTURE EQ you have created by sampling your amp. Every channel of PREAMP LIVE is capable of storing it’s own tone capture EQ which can then be exported and shared with friends using the official software. -
Page 18: Tone Capture Operation
Tweak the settings to further match the sound you want. 2. Simultaneously press footswitches 1 + 4 on PREAMP LIVE to enter TONE CAPTURE mode. If the channel does not have a tone capture already saved in memory then footswitch 3 will be illuminated yellow and flashing on/off. - Page 19 When the capture process has finished, footswitch 3 LED’s will stop flashing and remain solid. 6. Press footswitch 3 to listen to the PREAMP LIVE channel combined with your newly created TONE CAPTURE. The tone capture you just created will be automatically stored to channel memory should you wish to use it.
