Front Panel
1. Program and Bank Selector Footswitches - These switches provide access
to the VGS50 user presets and the 10 user banks. They are also used to bypass the
VGS50, access the tuner, and perform various functions for the Learn-a-Lick feature.
2. Effect Select Buttons - This row of buttons is used to select or bypass a
specific effect group for each preset. These groups include Master Level, Reverb,
Delay, 11 Modulation Effects, Noise Gate, Equalization, Distortion and Compression.
3. Store Button and LED - After editing a preset, your modifications must be
stored in order for the VGS50 to remember the changes that you made. When you
change any aspect of a preset, the store LED will light indicating that you need to
use the store button to save the change.
4. Clip LED - This LED will light to indicate that the VGS50 is receiving too much
signal. Clipping causes an unwanted distortion in the digital effects. To prevent
clipping from occurring, reduce the program level parameter.
