Vox E 1 owner manual When you’ve got a sound you like, store it

5.Using the CABINET TYPE selector (1.2), choose the cabinet you want to use.

HINT: For recommended combinations of amp and cabinet types, refer to p.33.

6.Adjust the GAIN (1.3), TREBLE, MIDDLE, BASS, PRESENCE (1.5–1.8) and VR GAIN (1.4) to taste. CH VOLUME (1.9) adjusts the volume while preserving the overall character of the distortion produced by the power stage.

HINT: To get the most distortion, raise VR GAIN to a desired level.

7.If you want to add modulation, delay, or reverb, press the TAP button (2.4) once again to defeat bypass.

8.Now let’s try adjusting one of the effects. For example if you want to add tape echo, press the DELAY TYPE button (2.3) to make the “TAPE ECHO” LED (2.1) light.

To set the delay time, press the TAP button (2.4) twice at the desired tempo. Make sure that the DELAY TYPE button is lit. In this state, you can turn the three value knobs 1–3 (2.5) located at the right to make fine adjustments to the time, set the mix amount of the echo sound, and set the amount of feedback for the echo.

You can adjust the MODULATION and REVERB effects in the same way. (However you can’t use TAP to make settings.)

NOTE: Some effect settings may cause unwanted distortion. If so, lower the CH VOLUME (1.9).

HINT: If you want to turn modulation, delay, or reverb off individually, simply press its TYPE button (2.3) until the corresponding effect type LED goes dark.

9.If you want to use a pedal effect, use the PEDAL selector (2.2) to select the desired effect.

10.Make sure that the PEDAL TYPE button (2.3) is lit, and turn value knobs 1–3 (2.5) to make adjustments.

HINT: Since you’ll probably find it easier to adjust the pedal effect if modulation, delay, or reverb are not being applied to the sound, press and hold the TAP button (2.4) for at least one second to bypass those effects. When you’re finished adjust- ing the pedal effect, press the TAP button once again to disable bypass.

11.When you’ve got a sound you like, store it!

NOTE: If you switch to a different program (or to manual mode) or turn off the power without saving, your settings will be lost!

HINT: If noise bothers you, you can minimize it by adjusting the noise reduction (p.19). Also, it’s a good idea to assign a name to your program so that you can find it later when you want! The name is saved as part of a program’s settings.
