What is A.I.R.?

A.I.R. is the Line 6 exclusive Acoustically Integrated Recording technology that accurately simulates the sound of a microphone and recording space. Click on the A.I.R. icon when the effects panel is shown, and you will be able to adjust A.I.R. for the current Tone. Point your mouse at items in the effect panel and look at the Info Bar for more information on those items. Settings made to A.I.R. are saved and loaded with Tones.

Note that the order of the “stomp box” icons in the row show you the signal flow order of the Effects, starting from the Gate effect, and flowing to the right through the effect icons. Effects to the left of the A.I.R. icon are running "Pre" (before the amp, cab and mic models) and effects shown to the right of the A.I.R. icon are running "Post" (after the amp, cab and mic models).

What are the Amp, Cab and Effect Models?

Line 6 pioneered the use of modeling technology for guitarists with the world's first modeling guitar amp. Since then, all Line 6's products have included Models developed through extensive, meticulous studies of guitar equipment heralded for its classic tone qualities.

To create a Model, we first locate an absolute mint version of a particular piece of equipment, with that special sound quality that makes it a truly remarkable guitar sound machine. We lock ourselves away in the Line 6 labs and sound studios to study this piece of classic equipment in exhaustive detail. We play guitars through it, listen to it, measure, write software, and then play and listen some more as we carefully craft a software Model that captures the signature qualities of the equipment being studied.

The resulting Model is designed to emulate the controls and sound qualities of the original equipment studied, including the beloved quirks and unruly qualities that made the original equipment classic in the first place. Each model is painstakingly perfected until it becomes an organic, living thing with guitar tone pumping through its veins. And when they're finally ready, we unleash these software Models in revolutionary new products like GearBox.
