ASIC CONNECTIONS
1. Use audio cables to connect ToneLabSE's OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks
(11.4) to a mixer/recorder or guitar amp (p.13, 14). If desired, you can also
connect an external effect processor. To do this simply connect SEND to the
input of your external processor, and RETURN to the output of your external
processor.
NOTE: If you're making connections in mono, use the OUTPUT L/MONO jack.
However to take the fullest advantage of ToneLabSE's sound, we strongly recom-
mend that you use stereo connections.
If you are using headphones, plug them into the PHONES jack (11.5).
NOTE: Signal from the OUTPUT jack(s) will still be heard even if headphones are
plugged in. If you only want to hear signal from headphones you must disconnect
any cables from the Output jacks or turn off or lower any equipment ToneLabSE is
connected to.
2. Turn the LEVEL knob (11.3) located on the rear panel of ToneLabSE all the
way toward the left (as seen from the rear), setting the volume to 0.
3. Connect the included AC/AC power supply to the rear panel AC9V power sup-
ply jack (10.2), and then connect the plug to an AC outlet.
4. Plug your guitar into the rear panel INPUT jack (11.1).
5. Turn down the volume of your amp or mixer so you don't hear crackles or pops
when the power is turned on. Then turn on the STANDBY switch (10.1) to turn
on the power.
