Vox E 1 owner manual Pedal Effects, Comp

Page 44

Due to the flexibility of your ToneLab, mixing and matching all of the amp and cabinet models can be done with the turn of a switch, without any risk of blow- ing the speakers up. Something that cannot be done in real life (unfortu- nately!). This capability can lead to some very interesting combinations, some useful, perhaps some not, but only you can decide what is useful to you, as your tone requirements are unique. Please feel free to explore all combinations of amps and cabinets. That is the beauty of ToneLab.

1. OFF

Select this when you don’t want to use a PEDAL effect.

2. COMP

Gotta play a clean passage that needs to be nice, smooth and even? Need a hair more sustain on a lead line? Then, look no further; COMP is the pedal for you. Modelled on a compressor pedal that is hugely popular due to the percussive clean sound it can produce - making it perfect for ’80s and ’90s pop and funk rhythm work. It can also add a singing, mellow sustain to lead lines - clean or dirty.

[1] “SENS” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the sensitivity of the compressor (i.e. when its “smoothing” effect kicks in). The amount of compres- sion/sustain will increase the more you turn this control up.

[2]“ATTACK” 1.0...10.0 Adjusts the strength of the attack.

[3]“LEVEL” 0.0...10.0 Adjusts the output level.
