• Lighe nor lit — Effect is bypassed (off) + GREEN - Effect is engaged (on) + RED (flashing) — Batteries should be replaced This low power indication will override all other states Connections and Power Indicator Light In Jack Here where it all begins. Use a standard guitar cable to connect your guitar, or the output of another effect to use in combination with your ToneCore. Like most pedals, inserting a plug into this jack will turn on the power to your ToneCore. Disconnect the plug from this jack when the ToneCore is not being used. Out Jack Use a standard guitar able to connect to the input of à guitar amp, or the input ofanother effect that will £ced your amp. Power Jack Connect an optional ToneCore-compatible Line 6 power supply like the DC-1, and you'll never need a 9-volt battery again! Foot Switch Stomp on this to turn Crunchtone’s effect sound processing on and off.

Level This sets the output level. Higher levels will hi the amp or effect fed by the Crunchtone with more signal level, giving you more volume. the level is high enough, it may also cause more distortion to be created within the receiving amp or pedal. Bass Add more low end to your sound by turning this knob up, or reduce it by tuning the knob down. Point the knob straight up to leave your tone unaltered Treble Just like the Bass knob, only it working the high end. Point the knob straight up to leave your tone alone. Drive The drive knob controls the amount of distortion created within your Crunchtone, You may want to use the Gate to tame umwanted noise, especially when you've got the Drive set high Controls Model Switch Give this a flick to reconfigure the virtual circuitry inside your CrunchTone, and enjoy three distinetly different sound “flavors": Blues is designed to produce a glassy, snappy 6L6-style overdrive tone for playing the blues. Pop is just the thing when you need a nice, 60s-style Class À pop rock bark. Crunch gives a punchy, slightly compressed overdrive tone, much like what you'd get from à full stack amp- and-cab setup. Gate Of- Disables the Gate. Gate 1 - A soft and mild noise gate, self-adjusting to your current Drive knob setting (cool, huh?) Gate 2 — À heavy, fast-clamping gate. Great for those aggressive metal chords and palm muting
