GLOBAL SOUND SETTINGS

fig.3-12
The VF-1 allows you to modify the settings of all patches in
common. This is called the Global function. By using the
Global function, you can leave the settings of each patch as
they are, and quickly make changes in your settings as
appropriate for the equipment you are using or the situation
in which you are playing.
In particular when a guitar is connected, it is convenient to
use the Global function to optimize the VF-1 for the amp that
you are using.

OUT LEVEL (output level): 0%–200%
Adjusts the output level that is specified for each patch.

OUTPUT SELECT

GUITAR AMP (COMBO), GUITAR AMP (STACK),
POWER AMP (COMBO), POWER AMP (STACK), LINE
Set the VF-1 to the optimal settings for the amp to which it is
connected.
* This setting is effective when a guitar is connected to
the VF-1, and you are playing the sound through a
guitar amp.
* When you are using the Patch that uses the algorithm BASS
MULTI, no effect will be obtained if the value other than LINE
is selected.
* The global sound setting function will not operate if the
algorithm of the currently selected patch does not contain the
"Preamp/Speaker Simulator," or if the "Preamp/Speaker
Simulator" has been turned off.
Section 3. Overall Settings (Utility)
In order to take fullest advantage of the VF-1's potential,
we recommend that you set "OUTPUT SELECT" to
either "POWER AMP (COMBO)" or "POWER AMP
(STACK)," and connect it to the RETURN or MAIN IN
jack of your guitar amp. If your guitar amp does not
have a RETURN or MAIN IN, connect it to the normal
input (if the amp has L and H inputs, use the L input),
and set the tone controls of the guitar amp BASS=0,
MIDDLE=10, and TREBLE=0 so that the frequency
response is flat. If your amp has switchable channels, use
the normal (clean) channel.
* The suggested settings of BASS=0, MIDDLE=10, and
TREBLE=0 are general guidelines. The optimal settings
may be different for your amp. Adjust the tone controls of
your amp so that its frequency response is flat.
GUITAR AMP (COMBO):
Use this setting when connecting to the guitar input of a
combo-type guitar amp (i.e., amp and speaker contained in a
single unit).
GUITAR AMP (STACK):
Use this setting when connecting to the guitar input of a
stack-type guitar amp (i.e., amp and speaker in separate
units).
POWER AMP (COMBO):
Use this setting when connecting to the RETURN or MAIN
IN of a combo-type guitar amp.
POWER AMP (STACK):
Select this when connecting to a power amp + speaker, or
when connecting to the RETURN or MAIN IN of a stack-type
guitar amp.
LINE:
Use this setting when connecting to a mixer or MTR.

NS THRESHOLD
(Noise suppressor threshold)
Adjusts the threshold level of the noise suppressor that is
included in each patch. When you connect a different guitar,
it is effective to adjust this according to the output level of
your guitar.
-20 dB – +20 dB
45
