Let’s talk about how ToneLabSE is structured.

OUTE
When you plug into ToneLabSE the signal passes through the following stages.
You might want to glance at the explanations in “A Guitarist’s Guided Panel
Tour” (p.5) while you read this section.
M ODES
ToneLabSE has a Program Select mode (where you can switch programs) and
an Effect On/Off mode (where you can switch individual effects on/off). To
switch between these modes, simply press the FX ON/OFF pedal which can
be done even while you are performing.
A
MP AND EFFECT SETTINGS
(E
DIT
)
The six model selectors, six value knobs, and various buttons let you edit the
amp and effect settings directly and intuitively. You can use the CHAIN switch
to change the order in which the modulation, delay, and reverb effects are con-
nected. For the amp and cabinet model, you can make settings for two chan-
nels (A and B) and switch between them while you perform.
R EALTIME EXPRESSION AND CONTROL PEDALS
You can use the expression pedal and control pedal to control wah, volume, or
effect parameters with your feet. Use the EXPRESSION button or the CON-
TROL button to specify the parameter that will be controlled by the corre-
sponding pedal.
S
AVING A PROGRAM
By using the WRITE button, all settings you make can be saved as a “program.”
When doing so, you should use the RENAME button to give the program a new
name. Once you’ve saved a program, you can use the program select pedals to
recall it instantly (in Program Select mode).
MIDI AND OUTPUT DESTINATION SETTINGS
The GLOBAL button lets you make MIDI-related settings and specify the destina-
tion to which ToneLabSE is connected. The settings you make here are automat-
ically saved within ToneLabSE so there’s no need to perform the WRITE
operation.
