6 V-TONE GMX1200H/GMX212/GMX210/GMX112/GMX110 User Manual 1.3.3 Online registration Please register your new BEHRINGER equipment right after your purchase by visiting http://behringer.com and read the terms and conditions of our warranty carefully. Should your BEHRINGER product malfunction, it is our intention to have it repaired as quickly as possible. To arrange for warranty service, please contact the BEHRINGER retailer from whom the equipment was purchased. Should your BEHRINGER dealer not be located in your vicinity, you may directly contact one of our subsidiaries. Corresponding contact information is included in the original equipment packaging (Global Contact Information/European Contact Information). Should your country not be listed, please contact the distributor nearest you. A list of distributors can be found in the support area of our website (http://behringer.com). Registering your purchase and equipment with us helps us process your repair claims more quickly and efficiently. Thank you for your cooperation! 2. Control Elements and Connections Control elements of your V-TONE guitar amp are described in this section. All controls and connections are explained in detail, and we give you useful tips on how to use them. An illustration of control elements with corresponding numbering can be found on the separately included supplementary sheet. Because models GMX112, GMX210, GMX212 and GMX1200H each feature two identical MODELING CHANNELS, control elements (4) through (11) will only be described once in the following section. 2.1 Front panel (1) The connector labeled INPUT is the 1/4" jack input of your V-TONE. Use it to connect your guitar. Use a commercially available 1/4" jack mono cable (no DIY, ask your specialized dealer) with good mechanical and electrical shielding to avoid unpleasant surprises during rehearsals or concerts. (2) On the GMX110, the CLEAN control modifies the volume of the CLEAN channel in relation to the MODELING CHANNEL. (3) Use the CHANNEL key to alternate between the two modeling channels (except for the GMX110). The channel LED (5) lights up when the channel is activated. On the GMX110, the CHANNEL key switches between CLEAN and MODELING CHANNEL. CLEAN CHANNEL is active when the channel LED (5) is not lit up. With all models you can also switch between channels using the provided footswitch. A long hit (approx. 2 seconds) on the CHANNEL key activates the guitar tuner. (4) The DRIVE control determines the amount of distortion in the respective MODELING CHANNEL. Using this, you can ideally adjust the V-TONE pre-amp to the output level of your guitar pick-up to achieve the desired amount of distortion (depending on the amp, mode and speaker combination you selected). (5) The CHANNEL LED indicates the currently selected channel. (6) Use the AMP switch to select one of the three guitar amps that orient themselves on classic tube amps. You will surely recognize these classic amp sounds as soon as you hear them. If you select TWEED, expect crystalclear, transparent sounds with dynamic bass. You get aggressive mids and pressure-rich, inescapable assertiveness and endurance when you select BRITISH. Rounder and more evened-out (yet still sophisticated) sounds can be dialed up if you select CALIF.(ORNIAN); perfect for lead sounds! (7) Use the MODE switch to choose one of three possible gain settings (CLEAN, HI GAIN and HOT) you wish to use with the basic sound you selected with the AMP switch. (8) The SPEAKER switch offers the simulations of two classic guitar speakers: 4 x 12" speaker in an enclosed casing (U.K.) and 2 x 12" speaker in an open casing (US). Additionally, we have included a frequency response correction (FLAT), specially modified to go with V-TONE's cabinet. (9) The LOW control on the EQ section lets you cut or boost the bass frequencies. (10) Use the MID control to cut or boost the mids. (11) The HIGH control regulates the upper frequency range. (12) If the tuner is activated, these LEDs (in connection with the FX display) indicate your guitar's tune. Activate the tuner by keeping the CHANNEL pressed for roughly 2 seconds. (13) The FX DISPLAY indicates either the program number of the preset you selected or the value of the parameter dialed up using the FX control. (14) Use the PRESET control to dial up one of the effect presets (between 01 and 99). The preset you dialed up is loaded when you make no further changes for about one second after dialing up that preset. (15) Use the IN/OUT key to activate/deactivate the selected effect. When the effect is activated, the LED located above the switch lights up. You can save your own effect settings by keeping this key pressed for about 2 seconds (also see section 4). The effect can also be activated/deactivated using the provided footswitch. ◊ If the MIDI function is deactivated (see ch. 4.2), FX tracking is active, i.e. a separate effect can be selected for each of the channels of your V-TONE. FXT is explained in detail in section 4.1. (16) The FX control adjusts the mix ratio between the original and the effect signal. (17) The LEVEL control adjusts the volume of the respective channel. Adjust LEVEL to achieve the desired volume balance between both channels. ◊ The GMX110 features no such control. However, use ( 2 ) to control the volume of the CLEAN channel in respect to the MODELING channel; use MASTER (19) to control the overall volume. ◊ The GMX112 and GMX210 feature the LEVEL control only on MODELING CHANNEL 1. It controls the volume of the channel in respect to the second channel. (18) The PRESENCE control gives you an additional way to cut or boost the highs (GMX212 and GMX1200H). (19) The MASTER control regulates the overall volume as well as headphone volume. (20) The POWER switch powers up your V-TONE. The POWER switch should always be in the "Off" position before you connect the V-TONE to the main power source. ◊ Please note: The POWER switch does not fully disconnect the unit from the mains power cord plug or extention cord. To disconnect the unit from the main power source, pull out the main cord plug or appliance coupler. When installing the product, ensure the plug or appliance coupler is readily operable. Unplug the power cord when the unit is not used for prolonged periods of time. ◊ GMX110's POWER switch is located on the rear.

Control Elements
and Connections
Control elements of your V-TONE guitar amp are described in this section.
All controls and connections are explained in detail, and we give you useful tips
on how to use them. An illustration of control elements with corresponding
numbering can be found on the separately included supplementary sheet.
Because models GMX112, GMX210, GMX212 and GMX1200H each feature two
identical MODELING CHANNELS, control elements
(4)
through
(11)
will only be
described once in the following section.
2.1
Front panel
(1)
The connector labeled
INPUT
is the °“ jack input of your V-TONE. Use it
