LEDs – The interactive LED strip lets you know when Stratus is booting, the status of your effects chain, currently selected presets, your current volume, and much more.
Multiknob – The Multiknob controls a variety of functions, including output volume, the Looper, and the currently selected preset or effect while in Live Mode.
Foot Switch – This momentary switch functions as an on/off button for your entire effects chain when in Looper Mode, toggles individual effects when in Stompbox Mode, or switches between presets in Preset Mode.
USB-C Port – This port can be used to power Stratus, download firmware updates from the Stratus Update Tool, and can be used to send and receive MIDI commands. When connected to a MIDI controller via a USB host port, you can send MIDI messages to instantly load your favorite presets, toggle effects, control the looper, and more.
DC Power – This port accepts a 9V center-negative power supply capable of at least 400mA to power Stratus. We HIGHLY recommend that you power Stratus via its own isolated, dedicated power supply (do NOT daisy-chain with other pedals!).
Audio Jacks – There are two mono, quarter-inch audio jacks, one on each side of Stratus, labeled "IN" and "OUT". Connect your instrument to the jack labelled "IN" and connect your amp or recording interface to the jack labelled "OUT".
