EQ and Mix Adjustments
Adjusting the global EQ is as easy as grabbing the knob and turning it. The <1> knob controls the level of the bass frequencies, the <2>
knob controls the level of the mids, and the <3> knob controls the highs. In Program mode the level of each frequency band is displayed on
the screen. Global EQ settings range from -12 to 12. For more information on the Global/Local EQ and Mix, see page 31.

Wet/Dry Mix Adjustments

To change the mix of dry and wet signal use the <4> knob. Mix settings range from 0 (all dry) to 100% (all wet). The Mix knob really comes
in handy when playing live because the acoustics of any room will change throughout a gig due to changes in crowd size, humidity,
temperature, and other variable factors. As the room acoustics change, you can easily adjust the level of your effects accordingly with the turn
of a knob. The Master Mix of each program can be modified in the Master Mix menu while in edit mode by either pressing the <Edit> button
then scrolling through the program pages. Or, simply press the <Other> button until this menu is reached.

Program levels

To adjust the overall level of a program push the <LEVELS> button. Then use the <1> knob to either bypass or activate the Tube or Solid
State levels. At this point, you now want to use the <2> knob to adjust the level of the selected distortion. This controls the Preamp levels
into the digital section. If the CLIP indicator lights, lower these levels. From here, you will now want to use the <3> knob to set the DSP
level. This controls the Preamp levels in the digital domain. If the DIGITAL CLIP indicator lights, lower these levels. Last but not least, knob
<4>. This controls the Master program level. All of the these level range from 0 (off) to 100%.

Using The Solo Button

The exclusive Solo button feature in the 2120 VGS gives you the ability to boost your solos instantly live or in the studio with just the press of
a button.
How does this work? With the unique Solo Button feature engaged (either via the Front panel control, or the included 2120 FC foot
controller), you get an additional 6dB of boost at the output of the 2120 VGS. This feature is also ideal to use in the studio (or live) to give
you a little extra punch for solos.
To assign the Solo button function, simply press the <Solo> button once then store. If you wish to link it to a footswitch, access can be made
in Page 3 of the Master Mix menu in the Utilities menu.
