and create your own individual Tones. Tone 1 is always on, and you can optionally click the Dual Tone
button at the top of GearBox to additionally toggle on Tone 2 to enter Dual Tone mode. Note there
are different configurations for a Dual Tone setting, depending on how you choose to feed the POD X3
physical inputs into these two Tone paths:
Process two completely independent Tones for two separate inputs at the same time, such as •
your guitar plus a microphone. We like to refer to this Dual Tone configuration as a tone “Pair”
- or...
Use two completely independent Tones on a single input. This is like running through two amps •
at once! We call this a tone “Blend”.
Using the GearBox (or on-board POD X3) Pan, Volume and Mute controls for each Tone 1 and Tone
2, you can customize how you want each Tone fed out to the Left & Right channel outputs and Record
Sends.
Note: For more info about the POD X3 Dual Tone concept, please check out your POD X3 Pilot’s
Handbook.
What are the Effects?
GearBox includes nine simultaneous Effects - A.I.R., Comp, Delay, Gate, Mod, Stomp, Verb, Vol
(Volume Pedal) and Wah. When you load a Tone from GearBox’s Tone Menu, the Effects will be set
to the settings saved for that Tone. Saving a Tone will save all the effect settings with the Tone.
Clicking the arrow to the left of the Gate icon shows and hides the Effects control panel. •
Click directly on the ON/OFF portion of the Gate, Wah, Stomp, Delay, Mod, Comp, EQ, and •
Verb icons to toggles the effect On or Off. The Volume, Amp/Mic/ER and Send 3-4 icons do not
turn on/off. (For TonePort UX8, you’ll see a Send 11-12 icon rather than a “3-4” icon).
Clicking the top portion of an effect icon to will also cause its controls to be displayed in the •
Effects control panel – this is independent of toggling the effect On/Off.
You can also select a particular effect for display in the Control Panel by selecting it from the •
menu just below the Gate icon, or by right-clicking the effect (Windows
®
) or control-clicking
(Mac
®
).
