8 V-TONE GMX1200H/GMX212/GMX210/GMX112/GMX110 User Manual 3. Applications The V-TONE features many different connectors, allowing you to adapt to all kinds of application challenges. We have listed just a few examples to show the flexibility your V-TONE. 3.2 Recording setup with an external effects device 3.1 Practice setup with playback DSP2024P Drum Computer Footswitch FX In Insert Send FX Out Footswitch Insert Return/ Aux In HPS3000 CD Player Aux/Tape In HPS3000 Line Out BEHRINGER V-TONE GMX210 BEHRINGER V-TONE GMX110 Multi-track Recorder Electric Guitar Electric Guitar Fig. 3.1: Standard setup To use your V-TONE in practice rooms, or to jam at home, connect your V-TONE as illustrated in figure 3.1. Connect a CD player or a drum computer to the TAPE input. You can control the volume of the connected signal by using the TAPE INPUT control (on the GMX210, GMX212 and the GMX1200H, the AUX control adjusts the signal connected to the AUX IN). If you want (or have to!) to practice using headphones, connect your headphones to the PHONES connector on your V-TONE. The loudspeaker is automatically muted. Connect the provided dual footswitch to the footswitch connector on the V-TONE. Use the CHANNEL footswitch to switch between the channels. If is active (see section 4.1), the effects selected for both channels are loaded. Use the IN/OUT footswitch to activate/deactivate the effect. Keeping CHANNEL depressed for about 2 seconds activates the internal tuner. Fig. 3.2: Recording setup If you want to use your V-TONE in home recording or studio situations, we suggest wiring your equipment as illustrated in figure 3.2. Of course, you can continue using a CD player or a drum computer. However, for clarity's sake we've omitted those two in this illustration. Connect the input of your effects unit to the INSERT SEND connector of the V-TONE; connect the output on your effects unit to the INSERT RETURN connector on the V-TONE. If you wish to record the guitar signal together with the stereo effects, connect the LINE outputs to your mixer, audio sequencer or a multi-track recorder. To record the dry guitar signal without the internal effects, it is best to use the INSERT SEND connector on the V-TONE. You can also use both outputs at the same time to for example record the dry signal without permanently committing to a single effect. At the same time, the LINE output (with the effect signal) lets you listen to yourself while recording. Of course, you can insert a Wah pedal or some other stomp box instead of an external 19" effects unit. To achieve a parallel stereo insert, you can connect the effect return to the AUX input, and then use the AUX IN control to determine the extent to which the effect is present. In this case, the effects unit should be set up to 100% effect signal, and the INSERT RETURN connector should have nothing plugged into it.
