USING ToneLab FOR LIVE PERFORMANCE

EXAMPLE OF CONNECTION TO A GUITAR AMP (Or Amps)

•If you are connecting ToneLab to one or more guitar amps for use in a live per- formance etc., set the rear panel AMP/LINE switch (9.1) to “AMP,” and connect the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks (9.2) to the input jacks of your amp(s).

HINT: If ToneLab is connected to a guitar amp ﬁrst, set the tone controls to their center positions and adjust them until ToneLab sounds right through your amp. The “AMP” setting on ToneLab has been voiced to sound correct with guitar amps that have a bright switch or a “bright” capacitor across the volume control. Set the rear panel LEVEL knob so that the sound does not distort.(starting with a “clean” pro- gram on ToneLab).

HINT: If you are connecting ToneLab to a guitar amp that has a jack allowing you to connect directly before the power amp (such as Return or Main In), set the AMP/ LINE switch to “LINE” and connect ToneLab to that jack. If you want to take advan- tage of the tonal character of that amp (and cabinet), you may want to turn ToneLab’s CABINET setting “OFF.”

USING THE OPTIONAL FOOT CONTROLLER

The optional VOX foot controller lets you use your foot to switch programs, control the volume, switch effects on/off, and control various values.

•Connect the optional foot controller to ToneLab’s VOX BUS jack (8.1). For details on connections and operation, refer to the owner’s manual included with the controller.

•You’ll need to specify the function that will be controlled by the expression pedal of the controller, and the range in which the value will change. Refer to p.42.

USING ToneLab WITH A MIDI DEVICE OR COMPUTER

By using MIDI you can control ToneLab from a sequencer or control an external MIDI device from ToneLab. You can also save ToneLab programs on a sequencer or MIDI data ﬁler that is able to transmit and receive MIDI exclusive data, and then load the program data back into ToneLab when desired.

HINT: For details on MIDI connections refer to p.45.
