Editing Hit - TC-Helicon VL3X Reference Manual

Editing HIT

Return to the Vocal Layer by pressing Home.
If you are on the Guitar Layer (indicated by red
LEDs), press the Layer button until the Vocal Lay-
er is active.
You can easily edit the effects contained within
the HIT function. It is possible to have effects ac-
tive when HIT is on or off. We refer to these two
states as "HIT on" and "HIT off". Think of them
as two variations of a Preset.
Press the HIT button a couple of times.
►
Take note of which effects come on and off
►
when HIT is active (HIT on) and inactive (HIT
off).
Now, let's add an effect to the "HIT on" flavor
►
of this Preset.
Activate HIT.
►
Now, turn on an effect that is currently off. For
►
this example, try µMod.
Preset 2 – HIT on
VL3X – Reference manual (updated 2015-07-16)
Press HIT. Notice that µMod (and Harmony)
►
turns off.
Preset 2 – HIT off
Press HIT again. You will see that µMod
►
comes back on, in addition to Harmony, which
was previously activated by pressing HIT.
If you save the Preset, your new HIT assign-
►
ment will be saved and you can control both
µMod and Harmony with the single HIT button
the next time you use the Preset.

Tips and tricks for using
HIT effectively
If you would like an effect to be ON regardless
►
of the HIT button's state, just activate it for
both HIT ON and HIT OFF. For some effects
such as Reverb, it is common to leave them
on all the time.
HIT can control any or all of the effects for
►
both guitar and vocals, or guitar/vocals simul-
taneously.
Use the process described above while on the
►
Guitar Layer to change the effects associated
with Guitar HIT.
