Vx400 Setups

Setups Introduction

The Vx400 is equipped with four inputs and four outputs that can be configured several different ways for
both live and recording applications. These configurations are selected in the DRUMS/SETUP row of the
editing matrix using the five editing knobs. Settings include whether the Instrument or Line inputs are routed
through the Vx400's effects processing and which pair of outputs mic, line, and instrument processing are
routed to. The USB 1-2 Source and USB 3-4 Source knobs are used for configuring how all inputs, mic
processing, and drum machine are routed via USB to the computer for recording applications.

Instrument/Line Setups

The Instrument and Line Setups are configurations for the instrument and line inputs designed primarily
for live performance applications. The Vx400 acts as a mixing device for mic, instrument, and line sources,
and can eliminate the need for a mixer when the Vx400's outputs are to be plugged directly into a
full-range powered speaker system. When enabled, these inputs can be routed around or through the
Vx400's effects processing and then mixed directly into the Vx400's 1/4" and XLR outputs.
Both Instrument and Line inputs have four settings that can be independently selected using the
Instrument and Line knobs in the DRUMS/SETUP row of the effect matrix. The configurations are
as follows:
