Line 6 GearBox 3.7 – Glossary (What Is...?)

10•12

As you move your mouse over any effect control, you’ll get a description and tips on using the

control in the Info Bar at the bottom of the GearBox window.
Click switches in the Control Panel or turn any knobs to adjust the selected effect. Or double-

click numerical values to type in values.
Some effects include a Model menu for selecting which Model you’d like to use for the effect.

The order of the effects icons shows you GearBox’s signal flow, from left to right.

The Vol, Mod, Delay and Reverb effects include a Pre/Post switch so they can run Pre (before the

amp/cab/mic or Preamp processing) or Post (after the amp/cab/mic or Preamp). As you click the

pre/post switches of these effects, you’ll see all the icons re-ordered to show the new signal flow.
Many of the effects are modeled after classic gear described in the

Model Gallery

What is EQ (Equalizer)?

EQ, which is an abbreviation for Equalizer or equalization, is one of the GearBox Effects. Equalizers

add or remove any range of audio frequencies from bass to treble. The EQ is configured as a “post”

effect – that is, it comes after both the Compressor and the Amp in your signal chain. For details

on each of the Equalizer controls, move your mouse over the control and look in the Info Bar at the

bottom of the GearBox window.
