on the Software Install CD) to ensure your computer system meets the necessary
requirements prior to installation. Once installed and configured, the GNX3000 can
then control Pro Tracks Plus and its recording functions.
Connecting the GNX3000 to the Computer
The GNX3000 comes equipped with a USB cable that is to be connected to your
computer whenever you will be recording or using the X-Edit Editor/Librarian. We
recommend that you only use the USB cable that is shipped with the GNX3000 since
it has been tested and approved for this specific use.
To connect the GNX3000 to the computer, follow these steps:
1. Install the GNX3000's software suite (described above).
2. Begin with the GNX3000's power turned off.
3. Plug the small end of the USB cable in to the USB jack on the back of the
GNX3000.
4. Plug the large flat end of the USB cable into an available USB port on your
computer.
5. Turn on the power to the GNX3000.
NOTE: DigiTech recommends that you do not use the GNX3000 as your default
sound playback device. This is configured in Windows in the Control Panel under
the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties. Windows Audio Samples are generally
recorded at full scale level and if played back through the GNX3000 may be very
loud in comparison with the configuration of audio level in the GNX3000.
Audio Routing for USB Recording
This section will cover the GNX3000's inputs and how they are routed for recording
on your computer via USB.
Inputs and Recording Routing (4 In/2 Out USB Audio Interface)
The GNX3000 has four audio inputs, the GUITAR INPUT, MIC INPUT, and LEFT/
RIGHT LINE INPUTS. Each of these inputs can be used to record audio and each
has multiple routing configurations available. For instance, in a given recording
session you may want to record guitar with effects, a dry guitar only, vocal with
or without effects, or both the guitar processing and the LINE INPUTS. The
GNX3000's flexible routing lets you record each of these inputs in different
combinations and even lets you utilize the GNX3000's effects processing if
desired, giving you a wide variety of options for your particular recording
application. Having an understanding of how the GNX3000's inputs and routing
options function is the best way to optimize your recording experience.
Input Sources
The GNX3000 has two recording input selections called Input Sources. Each of
these Input Sources offer several routing configurations for a variety of recording
options. The Input Sources are selected by first pressing the SHIFT button to
enable the Shift function and then using the USB 1-2 SRC and USB 3-4 SRC buttons
