and create your own individual Tones. Tone 1 is always on, and you can optionally click the Dual Tone button at the top of GearBox to additionally toggle on Tone 2 to enter Dual Tone mode. Note there are different configurations for a Dual Tone setting, depending on how you choose to feed the POD X3 physical inputs into these two Tone paths:

Process two completely independent Tones for two separate inputs at the same time, such as your guitar plus a microphone. We like to refer to this Dual Tone configuration as a tone “Pair” - or...

Use two completely independent Tones on a single input. This is like running through two amps at once! We call this a tone “Blend”.

Using the GearBox (or on-board POD X3) Pan, Volume and Mute controls for each Tone 1 and Tone 2, you can customize how you want each Tone fed out to the Left & Right channel outputs and Record Sends.

Note: For more info about the POD X3 Dual Tone concept, please check out your POD X3 Pilot’s Handbook.

What are the Effects?

GearBox includes nine simultaneous Effects - A.I.R., Comp, Delay, Gate, Mod, Stomp, Verb, Vol (Volume Pedal) and Wah. When you load a Tone from GearBox’s Tone Menu, the Effects will be set to the settings saved for that Tone. Saving a Tone will save all the effect settings with the Tone.

Clicking the arrow to the left of the Gate icon shows and hides the Effects control panel.

Click directly on the ON/OFF portion of the Gate, Wah, Stomp, Delay, Mod, Comp, EQ, and Verb icons to toggles the effect On or Off. The Volume, Amp/Mic/ER and Send 3-4 icons do not turn on/off. (For TonePort UX8, you’ll see a Send 11-12 icon rather than a “3-4” icon).

Clicking the top portion of an effect icon to will also cause its controls to be displayed in the Effects control panel – this is independent of toggling the effect On/Off.

You can also select a particular effect for display in the Control Panel by selecting it from the menu just below the Gate icon, or by right-clicking the effect (Windows®) or control-clicking (Mac®).
