Hints & Tips � Building a New Tone
Stompbox Routing
8� 2
As you probably know from, the Basic Operations chapter, stompboxes can be set up to feed Amp 1, Amp 2 or both amps (for a refresher, see page 4�17). Set up the stompboxes to feed the amp however you�d like. To keep things simple, you may find it helpful to set them up like this:
Setting Up a Stompbox
At this point, you may want to follow our little rule of thumb of putting Distortion in Stombox 1, Modulation in Stompbox 2 and Delay in Stompbox 3. But if you�re looking to do something more adventurous with the routing or the ordering of the stompboxes, that�s great too, and it�s why we provided you all the flexibility there is here. When you�re dialing in the setting for a stompbox, it�s good to A/B between the stompbox on and stompbox off states to make sure that you�ve got the levels where you want them for each situation. For modulation and delay effects, you may also want to set the effect to be locked to tap tempo, and set the note value it will use. Once again (and this is the last time we�re gonna bring it up, we promise), tweaking at level and with other musicians is recommended. Also, as you�re tweaking it�s a good idea to save various versions of the tone along the way. This way, if things start out well, but then you wander off in a direction that doesn�t pan out, you don�t have to go all the way back to the beginning. You may want to treat one bank as your �tone workshop�, using the A, B, C, D channels in the bank to save various versions of a tone, and then switching back and forth to hear the differences between them.
Add Post Effects
Okay, you�ve now done all you could do with a traditional amp and stomp box setup (plus another amp), but Vetta�s still got a lot more to offer. Tremolo, Compression and EQ are ready and waiting, though it�s often good to leave the EQ, and sometimes the post Compression, for a last step of refinement, in order to help yourself avoid overdoing it with either one.
