Line 6 GearBox 3.1 – Basic Features Guide

looped 1/4-inch audio tape that wraps past separate record and playback heads. The position of the playback head can be moved to adjust the delay time from 60 to 650 milliseconds. Tube Echo is based on* the classic Echoplex tone with the extra advantage of up to 2 seconds of delay time. DRIVE lets you dial up some tube warmth like the original and FLUTTER (short for wow and flutter) adds that unique sound of a slipping, dirty tape capstan!

Digital Delay

This model is a straight up digital delay with Bass and Treble tone controls. Nothing fancy here, just basic echo-cho-cho-cho. After all, it’s good to cleanse the palate every once in a while.

Mod

Mod Effects are things that swoosh, pulse and warble — from phase shifters to flangers to choruses. Why are they called Mod (Modulation) effects? Well, if we consult a dictionary, we discover that 'modulate,' in the electronic world means to "alter the amplitude or frequency of (a wave) by (using) a wave of a lower frequency to carry a signal" (definition courtesy of The Oxford Encyclopedic English Dictionary, Third Edition, thank you very much). That modulating wave is what causes all that swooshing, pulsing, and warbling. The SPEED of the Mod effects controls how quickly (or slowly) the modulating waveform sweeps, and generally allows Tap Tempo. DEPTH controls overall amplitude of the modulating wave, which usually determines just how intense the effect will be. There's always a MIX control, and sometimes there are also other controls, as we're about to describe....

Sine Chorus

Here's your basic digital chorus, which gives you the classic swimmy/watery sound of chorus, plus BASS and TREBLE controls for bass-ing and trebl-ing. :-)

Subtle settings of the chorus can also be used to give a fatter sound. Extreme settings can totally change the character of your sound.
