Section 1. Producing Sound

Making connections

Make connections as follows, depending on how you will be
using the VF-1.
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the
power on all devices before making any connections.
* To output in monaural, connect a cable to only the OUTPUT L
(MONO) jack.
* There are three input jacks: the GUITAR jack, and the INPUT L
(MONO) / R jacks. If you make connections both to the
GUITAR jack and to the INPUT L (MONO) jack, the input
from the GUITAR jack will be given priority.
* To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit
(should the plug be pulled out accidentally), and to avoid
applying undue stress to the AC adaptor jack, anchor the power
cord using the cord hook, as shown in the illustration.

Connecting a guitar

* When connecting a guitar, you will normally make connections
to the front panel GUITAR jack.
* If you will be outputting in mono, use the OUTPUT L
(MONO) jack to make connections.
* Normally you should set the LEVEL switch to -20 dBm.
