V-AMP 2

For this application please select mode L1 or L2 under CONFIGURATION, depending on whether you want to have the external amp with or without cabinet simulation! Thus, you can also optimize the sound on the amp with TREBLE, MID and BASS of the global 3-band EQ.

2.5 Live set-up with P.A. system and your own monitor amp on stage

This application is intended to give you your own guitar signal on stage so that you can have complete control of intentionally produced feedback, for example. The monitor amp is controlled via LINE OUT L including additional 3-band EQ and effects, but no cabinet simulation. LINE OUT R feeds the DI signal to the P.A. mixer. Here, the effects and cabinet simulation can be used without the 3-band monitoring EQ.
