All Guitar FX Global parameter
Use the All Guitar FX Global parameter to “lock”
the guitar effects in their current state. This is a
great feature if you would like to use one “set” of
guitar effects across all Presets, much like indi-
vidual stomp boxes instead of having guitar ef-
fects change with every Preset.
Global NatPlay Source parameter
Use the Global NatPlay Source parameter to de-
fine a global signal source for the NaturalPlay
feature. Use this parameter if you want to make
sure that only audio or control data from a spe-
cific source is used to determine key/scale. For
more information, see “What is NaturalPlay?”.
Parameter settings:
► Auto: VL3X “listens” to any audio or con-
trol data coming from the Guitar input / MIDI
or USB port / Aux input / RoomSense micro-
phones to determine the key/scale that should
guide Harmony voices and HardTune.
► Guitar: Audio received at the Guitar input is
used to determine key/scale.
► MIDI: MIDI note messages received at the
MIDI IN jack are used to determine key/scale.
► Aux: Audio received at the Aux input input is
used to determine key/scale.
► RoomSense: Audio received by the built-in
RoomSense microphones is used to deter-
mine key/scale.
Mix RoomSense to NaturalPlay
This parameter allows you to have audio from the
RoomSense mics blended with other incoming
NaturalPlay information (like guitar) to enhance
accuracy.
In fact, if the audio received by the RoomSense
mics has sufficient chord information, it can set
key/scale without other input. That means you
can stop playing guitar or MIDI and have VL3X
automatically start “listening to the band” for
key/scale cues.
