SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Congratulations, and thank you for your purchase of the DigiTech
Valve FX Guitar Preamp / Signal Processor. The Valve FX combines
the world's most powerful digital signal processor, the S-DISC™ with
real tube distortion or one of our three most popular solid state distor-
tion types. These digital multi-effects are second to none, and when
joined with the warmth and clarity of one of the best analog preamps
on the market, the results are amazing. Special features of the Valve
FX include:
• Full bandwidth effects (20-20kHz)
• 24-bit signal path, 48-bit internal data transmission
• Stereo processing
• Instant Module and Parameter access
• The Control One remote foot controller (optional)
• Programmable cabinet emulation for running direct to a mixing
console (great for both studio and live applications)
• Front panel Presence control and headphone output
• Full MIDI implementation
• Built-in MIDI merging (MIDI output can act as a standard out or
as a merged out)
• MIDI Transmit and Receive mapping
• All effects and parameters are available for MIDI continuous
control with up to 10 CC links available per program
For the first time, all of your effects needs can be filled by a single unit
with 16-bit digital clarity. This owner's manual is your key to under-
standing the powerful world of the Valve FX. Read it carefully. After
you've had time to familiarize yourself with the unit, try experimenting
with unusual effects settings. You may achieve some interesting
results.
