Other Utility Functions

These are the extra Utility functions included in the 2120 VGS that make your programming life a little easier.

Factory Reset

Allows you to erase all User Program, Default and Utility settings at once and restore the 2120 VGS memory to its factory condition.
WARNING! This procedure will destroy and reset ALL User programs in the 2120 VGS memory. Be sure you want to erase the
memory, and start fresh before continuing with this procedure.
To perform a factory reset, do the following:
1. Press the <Utilities> button and scroll to page 13 of the Utility Menu using the <Page> knob. The display reads:
2. To initiate the reset, turn the <1> knob.
3. This is your last chance to change your mind. If you are sure, turn the <3> knob. If not, you can abort the procedure by turning
the <4> knob. If you turn the <3> knob, the Information line of the display briefly reads:
after which the unit resets, and returns to Program 1.
In extreme situations, the 2120 VGS can be reset using a special power-up procedure. This will also completely reset the 2120, eliminating any
custom settings created by the user. The procedure is as follows:
1. Press and hold the <Preamp> button while powering up your 2120 VGS.
2. Release the <Preamp> parameter button after an asterisk appears in the information line on the screen.
3. Press the <Mod> button and the 2120 VGS will re-initialize itself.
Global vs. Local Cabinet Emulation
The thing to factor in when using the Cabinet emulator in either global or local mode is whether or not you want all of your sounds affected by
this change. A good time to use Global mode is when your frequently playing in different venues (because each room always sounds different).
1. Press <Utilities> and scroll to page 2 of the Utility page using the <Page> knob. The display reads:
