• If you are connecting ToneLabSE to one or more guitar amps, connect the OUT-
PUT L/MONO and R jacks to the input jack of your guitar amp(s). If desired, you
can also connect an external effect processor; connect SEND to the effect pro-
cessor’s input, and RETURN to its output. Press the GLOBAL switch to access
the OUT SEL menu, and use value knob 6 or the
▲, ▼ buttons to select “AP”
(AMP).
HINT: If ToneLabSE is connected immediately before a combo amp or amp head,
set the tone controls of your guitar amp to their center positions and then adjust for
taste. To avoid unintentional distortion, press and hold the FX ON/OFF (Effect On/
Off) pedal for 0.5 seconds to bypass ToneLabSE, and adjust the rear panel LEVEL
knob so that the volume is the same as when your guitar is connected directly to
the amp.
HINT: If you’re connecting ToneLabSE to a guitar amp that has a jack allowing you
to connect directly before the power amp (such as Return or Main In), set the OUT
SEL menu item to “Ln” (LINE), and then connect ToneLabSE to that jack. If you
want to take advantage of the tonal character of that amp (and cabinet), you may
want to turn ToneLabSE’s CABINET setting “OFF.”
HINT: When the program name is displayed, you can press and hold the EXIT
switch for one second or longer to activate the Key Lock function; this disables
operation of the buttons, selectors, and knobs. (The name display will indicate KEY
LOCK for one second, and the value knob LEDs will go dark.) To cancel the Key
Lock function, press and hold the EXIT switch again for one second or longer. (The
name display will indicate LOCK OFF for one second.)

By using MIDI you can control ToneLabSE from a sequencer or control an external
MIDI device from ToneLabSE. You can also save ToneLabSE programs on a
sequencer or MIDI data filer that is able to transmit and receive MIDI exclusive
data, and then load the program data back into ToneLabSE when desired.
