The {1} INPUT socket is the 1/4" connector for your guitar.
Please use a standard 1/4" TS connector.
CLEAN CHANNEL2.1.1
The {2} CLEAN CHANNEL LED lights up when the CLEAN
channel is active.
The {3} GAIN control determines the volume of the CLEAN
channel.
The {4} CRUNCH button (VT100FXH and VT100FX only) allows
you to add some slight distortion to your clean sound, giving
it a bit of “dirt” or “crunch”.
The {5} BASS control in the EQ section allows you to raise or
lower the bass frequencies on the CLEAN channel.
With the {6} MIDDLE control you can raise or lower the midrange
frequencies on the CLEAN channel.
The {7} TREBLE control adjusts the treble frequencies on the
CLEAN channel.
Press the {8} CHANNEL button to switch between the CLEAN
and OVERDRIVE channels. The channel LED lights up when
the channel is activated. With all models you can also switch
between channels using the footswitch provided.
OVERDRIVE CHANNEL2.1.2
The {9} OVERDRIVE CHANNEL LED lights up when the chan-
nel is active.
The [10] GAIN control determines the amount of gain applied
and hence the degree of distortion in the OVERDRIVE
channel.
The [11] OD1/OD2 button (VT100FXH and VT100FX only)
switches between two different overdrive sounds.
The [12] BASS control in the EQ section allows you to raise or
lower the bass frequencies on the OVERDRIVE channel.
With the [13] MIDDLE control (VT100FXH and VT100FX only)
you can raise or lower the midrange frequencies on the
OVERDRIVE channel.
The [14] TREBLE control adjusts the treble frequencies on the
OVERDRIVE channel.
Use the [15] CONTOUR control for additional, highly characteris-
tic adjustment of the midrange, allowing you to easily create
traditional as well as ultra-modern guitar sounds.
The [16] VOLUME control adjusts the volume level of the OVER-
DRIVE channel.
DIGITAL FX2.1.3
The [17] DIGITAL FX LED lights up when the effects processor
is active.

EffectsTab. 2.1:
The [19] FX LEVEL control adjusts the mix ratio between the
original and the effect signal.
The [20] REVERB LEVEL control determines the effect intensity
of the additional reverb effect.
The [21] FX LOOP MIX control (VT100FXH and VT100FX only)
determines the effect intensity of the external effect (see
Chapter 2.2.1 FX LOOP).
MASTER section2.1.4
The [22] MASTER VOLUME control adjusts both the overall
volume and the line out/headphones volume.
The [23] VTC push button activates and deactivates the VTC
Virtual Tube Circuitry.
The [24] CD IN connector allows you to connect the output signal
of a CD player, tape deck, or CD/MD walkman. For example,
you can play back music CDs or CDs accompanying a guitar
tutor while practising. This connector can also be used as
a LINE OUT output. In this case, the guitar signal is output
with no speaker simulation applied and can be routed to
an external amp or mixing console. This will not mute the
VIRTUBE’s built-in loudspeaker.
The [25] LINE OUT/PHONES jack is for headphones connection.
Internal speaker simulation is applied to the headphones sig-
nal in order to produce an authentic signal. The VIRTUBE’s
built-in loudspeaker is muted when this connector is used.
The headphones output signal can also be routed to a +
mixing console or other sound reinforcement system. To
do so, connect the headphones output with the line input
on the mixing console. Use a standard cable with 1/4" TS
connectors. If hum problems occur, you could insert a
DI box, e.g. BEHRINGER ULTRA-DI DI100 or DI120.
Some headphones tend to produce distortion with too +
high a volume level . Please turn down the volume a bit,
until distortion stops.
The [26] POWER switch turns your VIRTUBE on and off. It
should always be in the OFF position when connecting the
unit to the mains.
