Introduction
WELCOME ABOARD!
any thanks for adding the VOX Valvetronix ToneLabSE to your sonic
arsenal. We’re sure it’ll give you countless hours of great guitar tones that
will feel as good as they sound!
To maximize your chances of enjoying a long and happy relationship with
your ToneLabSE, please read this manual at least once, and (as they say), “use
the product as directed.” Keep the manual for future reference after you’ve read it;
you’ll want to re-read it later at some point to pick up cool tips you may have
missed the first time around.
MAIN FEATURES
•ToneLabSE features Valve Reactor technology that switches between Class A
and Class AB power amp circuits with an actual 12AX7 (ECC 83) miniature tri-
ode valve (vacuum tube) to create the sound of an actual tube power amp,
delivering the response and tone of classic amps.
•ToneLabSE uses sophisticated modeling technology to create classic amp, cab-
inet, and effect sounds. You can choose from sixteen amp types that include
classic vintage amps and expensive high-end valve amps, and eleven different
cabinet types. By combining amp types and cabinet types you can create an
amazing range of sounds, many of which have never been heard before.
Since high-quality effects are built in, ToneLabSE is all you need to create a
completely finished sound. Sixteen types of pedal effects are placed before the
amp, and after the cabinet are eleven types of modulation, eleven types of
delay, and eleven types of reverb. You can choose one type for each effect, and
use these four effects simultaneously plus Noise Reduction.
•You can store all of your own amp settings and effect model settings as a “pro-
gram” in one of 96 program memories. ToneLabSE comes with 32 preset pro-
grams for instant gratification.
Manual Mode lets you use ToneLabSE just like conventional amps and effects.
The sound will be exactly as specified by the physical positions of the amp sec-
tion knobs. In other words...what you see is what you get!
•For convenient tuning, an Auto Chromatic Tuner is built-in.
There are two expression pedals that you can use as a wah pedal, volume
pedal, or to control a variety of effect parameters – a great feature for live perfor-
mance.
There’s a Quick Assign function that makes it easy to assign parameters to the
expression pedal.
•ToneLabSE provides control switches that let you do things like set the delay
time via TAP TEMPO, switch insert effects on/off, or switch the speed of a rotary
speaker ... again, must-have features for live performance.
