Page 4: Vsound Pedal Controls
Vsound pedal controls Top panel • Volume. This rotary control adjusts volume of the output. • Preamp. This sets the gain of the input preamplifier, allowing a gain of either 0 dB or 14 dB. • Response select. This footswitch is used to select the IR. The pedal can hold 10 IRs in its memory, and the footswitch cycles round from 0 (bypass) to 10. -
Page 5: Quick Start Tutorial
Quick start tutorial Ensure your computer or laptop has internet access. If you are reading this then you will have already downloaded and installed the vsound software from the website, and the vsound software is open. Now follow these steps: Connect the supplied power adaptor to vsound and switch on (do not use any other adaptor). -
Page 6: Notifications And System
• Pre-amp (dcello) – alters the pre-amp gain between 0 dB and 14 dB. Note – this feature is only supported by the dcello board, not the vsound 2 unit, which ignores this command. The pre-amp gain for the vsound 2 unit is selected by the physical switch on the unit. -
Page 7: Response Control
Response control The Response Control window is the section of the software that allows the user to open an impulse response and download it to the hardware, as well as EQ the response using the versatile EQ tool. The impulse response and its spectrum are shown in the plot areas when loaded from disc. -
Page 8: Spectrum Eq
Spectrum EQ The equalizer is a new and very powerful feature introduced in vsound version 2.5. It allows the frequency response to be modified with exceptional precision using an interactive tool, instantly generating a new impulse response that can then be saved or downloaded to the pedal in the usual manner. - Page 9 • Precision control - this has two settings, standard (default) or high. With the standard setting, the equalizer will change the gain of the selected region of the frequency response exactly as specified. However, with a large gain change, the modified impulse response can have ripples in the tail end, which may be undesirable.

Changing default axes From the main menu, select Tools > Axes. A new window opens, which you can use to change the vertical axis range of the impulse response and frequency response plots. For the frequency response plot, two ranges are provided, depending on whether the vertical axis is in dB (default) or linear scaling. -
Page 11: Selecting An Impulse Response From The Software
