1.BANK DISPLAY

This LED display window let’s you know what mode the VC-4 is in and more:

1.When the Foot Controller is in Program Select Mode, a Bank number (1, 2, 3, 4 or 1., 2., 3., 4.) is displayed. If this number is flashing it means you are about to select a new bank (see PRO- GRAM SELECT MODE section on page 6 for more details).

2.When the Foot Controller is in Individual Mode, the below appears in the BANK DISPLAY (see INDIVIDUAL MODE section on page 7 for more details).

3.When the Foot Controller is in Tuner Mode, either “-” or “_” (Silent Tuning Mode) appears in the BANK DISPLAY as shown below (see TUNER MODE section on page 8 for more details).

or

4.If your Valvetronix combo has been put into Manual Mode (see your amp’s manual for more details) via it’s top panel (IMPORTANT NOTE: the amp can NOT be switched to MANUAL MODE using the VC-4), “o” will appear in the BANK DISPLAY as shown below. When the amp is in MANUAL MODE, the VC-4 operates exactly as it does in INDIVIDUAL MODE, allowing you to switch FX on & off, change delay time and also use the built-in pedal as a Volume or Expression control.

2.It also allows you to change program Banks. For more details please see the CHANGING PRO- GRAM BANKS section on page 6.

3.FOOTSWITCHES 1 – 4 & LEDS 1 – 4

What these bad boys do or don’t do depends on the MODE your VC-4 is in:

1.In Program Select Mode, these 4 switches allow you to change between Channels and Banks and the LEDs let you know what you’ve selected (see page 6 for more details).

2.In Individual Mode, these 4 switches allow you to switch the PEDAL, MOD, DELAY and REVERB sections of your amp on/off. The LEDs let you know at a glance what’s on and what’s off.

3.In Tuner Mode, these 4 LEDs plus the TAP TEMPO LED act as the “needle” on a tuner, with LED 3 being the “you’re exactly in tune” indicator (see page 8 for more details).

4.If your Valvetronix combo has been switched to Manual Mode, these switches allow you to switch the PEDAL, MOD, DELAY and REVERB sections of your amp on/off. The LEDs let you know at a glance what’s on and what’s off.
