[. . . ] VIRTUBE VT30FX/VT15FX/VT15CD User Manual A50-45633-00004 VIRTUBE VT30FX/VT15FX/VT15CD Important Safety Instructions 1) Read these instructions. 6) Clean only with dry cloth. Caution + To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). + To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain and moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing liquids and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. [. . . ] + With too high a volume level some headphones tend to produce distortion. [18] Use the FOOTSWITCH jack to connect the 1/4" TRS plug of the footswitch supplied with the unit. The footswitch performs a dual function: it switches between the two channels and turns the FX on and off (VT30FX only). It should always be in the OFF position when connecting the unit to the mains. + Please note: Merely switching the unit off does not mean that it is fully disconnected from the mains. Before installation, please make sure that the mains connector has not been damaged. If you do not use the unit for an extended period of time, please disconnect it at the mains. 2. 1. 1 CLEAN channel {2} The CLEAN CHANNEL LED lights up when the channel is active. {4} The BASS control in the EQ section allows you to raise or lower the bass frequencies on the CLEAN channel (VT30FX only). {5} The TREBLE control adjusts the treble frequencies on the CLEAN channel (VT30FX only). {6} Press the CHANNEL button to switch between the CLEAN and OVERDRIVE channels. With all models you can also switch between channels using the footswitch provided. 2. 1. 2 OVERDRIVE channel {7} The OVERDRIVE CHANNEL LED lights up when the channel is active. {8} The GAIN control determines the amount of gain applied and hence the degree of distortion in the OVERDRIVE channel. {9} The BASS control in the EQ section allows you to raise or lower the bass frequencies. [10] Use the MID control for additional, highly characteristic adjustment of the midrange, so as to easily create traditional as well as ultra-modern guitar sounds. + On the VT30FX, the controls {9}, (10) and (11) are effective on the OVERDRIVE channel only, since this amplifier has a dedicated equalizer for the CLEAN channel (see also {4} and {5}). [12] The VOLUME control adjusts the volume level of the OVERDRIVE channel. 2. 2 Rear panel Fig. 2. 2: VIRTUBE control elements (rear panel) [20] The VIRTUBE is connected to the mains using a standard IEC receptacle. 3. 1: VT30FX standard set-up For practising in the rehearsal room or at home, please wire your VIRTUBE as shown in fig. If you want to practice with headphones, connect your headphones to the LINE OUT/PHONES jack.
