While playing, use the F knobs and buttons to adjust the Low Mid
6
and High Mid EQ bands.
For the Low Mid band:
select the frequency—
adjust the bandwidth or "Q" of the selected frequency—
F2 knob or button.
adjust the gain of the selected frequency—
the EQ band is turned off. (Use the F3 button to quickly set the
Low Mid EQ band to 0.)
For the High Mid band:
select the frequency—
adjust the bandwidth or "Q" of the selected frequency—
F5 knob or button.
adjust the gain of the selected frequency—
the EQ band is turned off. (Use the F6 button to quickly set the
High Mid EQ band to 0.)
Even though they're named "Low Mid" and "High Mid," these EQ bands
can actually be set to adjust a specific frequency over a very broad
range, from 20 Hz to 10 kHz.
Global SUB EQ
The Global SUB EQ is a four-band equalizer that adjusts the tonality of the
sound coming out of the VG-99's SUB OUT jacks. Functionally, it's identical to
the Global Main EQ. Navigate to Pages 4 and 5 of the Global Setting screens
to adjust the Global SUB EQ.

Adjustments
Use the PAGE buttons to go to Page 6 of the Global Setting screens to adjust
the following.
Global Noise Suppressor (NS) Threshold
The VG-99 includes noise suppressors that reduce hum and
noise that are picked up by your guitar's pickups. Up to four
noise suppressors can be active at any given time: one for
each COSM instrument (A and B), and one in each multi-
effects processor (A and B).
The noise suppressors work by suppressing noise and hum that rise above
a certain level, or "threshold. " The threshold control in each noise suppressor
lets you dial in the level at which the noise occurs and silence it.
Due to conditions in your performance environment—such as the presence
of AC line noise, RF interference, etc.—you may need to raise the noise
suppressors' thresholds to get rid of noise. Conversely, you may want to
lower them in conditions where noise interference isn't present. Using the
Global NS setting, you can offset the threshold settings stored in each patch
as necessary.
Use the F1 knob to adjust the Global NS setting until the noise
disappears. "+" settings raise the threshold, while "-" settings
lower it. Press F1 to quickly set the threshold to 0 dB. (At 0 dB,
the VG-99 uses the threshold settings stored in each patch.)
Depending on the noise suppressor settings and other settings in the
currently selected patch, adjusting the Global NS threshold may have
no audible effect.
