Basics

Press LEVELS to access

Set values using encoders A, B and C

Change pages using encoder D

Where nothing else is stated the range of the level parameters is -100 dB to 0dB.

Volume

Overall output level control.

Line Level

Output level control for the Line signal

Inst. Level

Output level control for the Instrument signal.

Line Gain & Instrument Gain

These parameters set the input gain for the Line input and the Instrument input. In the example below we set the Line gain. - The procedure is identical for setting the Instrument gain.

Switch on any pedal in your signal chain that is placed prior to G-Natural and may boost the signal

Strum your guitar as hard as you do when you play

Adjust the line gain until the “0” appears:

LEVELS MENU >>>>>>>>>0

Line Gain : 16

Then back off a few dB:

LEVELS MENU >>>>>>> I Line Gain : 14

The correct gain is now set.

Left/Right Output

Sets the output level of left and right channels individually.

Boost Max Range: 0 to 10 dB

This setting determines the max range of the boost function. As 0 dBFS is the max level in the digital domain digital “boost” is done by attenuating the general level and then release this attenuation when boost is required. If you never use the Boost function at all set Boost Max parameter to 0 dB. This will give you the optimal signal to noise ratio.

Input Src (Input Source)

Range: Analog or Digital

The default setting is analog. This setting enables the analog inputs on the rear panel.

If you intend to connect digital equipment to the S/PDIF input, the Input parameter must be set to “Digital”. Note that the output signal is always present on both analog outputs and on S/PDIF out as well.

Mic-Pre

Range: Vocal or Guitar

This parameter determines the routing of the mic input signal.

MIC INPUT

MI

MIC LEVEL -20dB SEL

Guitar: This is the setting to use if the mic input is used for guitar. All processing effects are available.

Vocal: If you are using this input for a Vocal microphone signal you will most likely prefer to route this signal past the Boost, Modulation and Delay blocks.

However the routing of this signal changes in more ways depending on the selected routing mode.
