Line 6 GearBox 3.1 – Basic Features Guide

•Single Tone Source (Mono/Stereo): When the GearBox application is not running, Record 1-

2 and 3-4 both carry the unprocessed signal. When running GearBox, Record 1-2 will carry the fully GearBox-processed signal. For Record 3-4, you can choose between a signal with no post- effects, and a fully unprocessed signal.

•Dual-Tone Source: If you’ve selected one of the dual input configurations from the input menu, Record 3-4 will always carry the signal from the second audio source. When GearBox is running, these sends will carry the Tone 2 signal of a Dual-Tone configuration. See the TonePort Dual-Tone Operation section for more about this.

Note: TonePort DI can only run in Single-Tone configuration.

GuitarPort will show two Sends (Record 1-2 and Record 3-4). When the GearBox application is not running, Record 1-2 and 3-4 both carry the unprocessed signal from GuitarPort’s input. When running GearBox, Record 1-2 will carry the fully GearBox –processed signal, and for Record 3-4 you’ll have a choice between routing a signal with no post-effects, or a fully unprocessed signal.

PODxt will show only one Record Send (Record 1-2). The type of signal that is routed to the Record Send 1-2 is determined by the PODxt Signal Routing option within the Audio Signal Routing dialog (accessed by the Advanced button within the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices dialog). Note that this Audio Signal Routing determines this signal routing regardless if GearBox is running or not for PODxt devices. (See the PODxt Audio Signal Routing section for more about this dialog).

Sample Rate and Bit Depth

When you set a sample rate and bit depth (also sometimes called "word length") in your recording software, your Line 6 software will automatically match these settings. If you want to check to make sure that everything is going as it should, just perform these steps:

•Configure your recording program's sample rate settings, and then confirm that your Line 6 hardware is running at the correct settings in the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices dialog (Windows) or in the Audio-MIDI Setup dialog (on Mac). It is best to always change the sample rate settings in your audio software.

•Typically, you can choose the 44,100 sample rate in your audio software for most projects. But if you have special requirements for your session, then you can alternatively choose 48,000, 88,200 or 96,000 Hz in your audio software and your Line 6 device will support any of these rates.
