ep, you’re right, the vast majority of manuals are about as interesting as
watching paint dry and we know that you’re anxious to plug in to your new
ToneLab and give it a whirl in the comfort of your home. So, here’s a “Quick
Start” to get you up and running in a heartbeat.
First we’ll get you started quickly using the preset programs. Then we’ll
explain how to use the knobs and switches of the amp and effect sections to cre-
ate your own sounds.
Once you’ve satisfied your primal urge to play, I’d like to urge you to give
this manual a chance - it’s been written by a fellow guitar nut and boasts some
killer bells “n” whistles that’ll warrant your interest. In short, it’ll be worth your while,
we promise. I look forward to talking you through the ToneLab in more detail once
you’re done....
HINT:
Want life to be easy? Of course you do! For this reason I suggest you fold
out the inside back cover of this manual before you go any further.
HINT:
Why? So you can see the pretty pictures of the Top Panel and Rear Panel it
contains while you’re going through the “Quick Start,” that’s why!

1.
If you’re going to connect ToneLab to a mixer or recorder, set the rear panel
AMP/LINE switch (9.1) to “LINE,” and connect the OUTPUT jacks (L/MONO
and R) (9.2) to the input jacks of your mixer or recorder. If you’re monitoring
through headphones, connect them to the PHONES jack (5.2).
If you’re connecting ToneLab to a guitar amp for playing live, set the rear panel
AMP/LINE switch to “AMP” and connect the L/MONO output jack to the input
jack of your guitar amp.
NOTE:
If you’re connecting ToneLab to something that only has a mono input, just
use the L/MONO jack.
NOTE:
If you’re connecting ToneLab to two amplifiers to run in stereo, take the L/
MONO and R output jacks and connect them to the inputs on each amplifier.
HINT:
Rear panel area (at the end of this manual) shows an illustration of this.
2.
Turn the LEVEL knob (9.3) on the rear panel of ToneLab all the way to the left,
setting the volume to 0.
3.
Plug the supplied AC/AC power supply into ToneLab’s rear panel AC9V power
inlet (6.1), and plug the power supply into an AC wall socket.

Plug your guitar into the front panel INPUT jack (5.1).
