9 -Pick-up type indicator: You’ll see that either the “single coil” or “humbucker” type pickup is

selected for each Tone. This is an indicator saved within the Tone by its creator to let you know what

type of pickup it was intended for use with. You can use it with any pickup setting on your guitar, but

it the Tone will sound most faithful to what it is trying to match if you use the same pickup type as

indicated.

POD X3/POD X3 Live users... Since the Tones available in the Online Tone Library are Single

Tone type presets, they will always load into only Tone 1 with your POD X3.

What is the Tone Locker?

GearBox’s Tone Locker lets you access and organize your Tones. Click the Tone Locker button above

the Browser to access the Tone Locker:

The list on the left shows Tones stored on your computer. This list shows the contents of the

folder that is set as the Tones Root Folder in your GearBox Preferences – Tones tab window.
The list on the right shows the

Online Tone Locker for GuitarPort Online members.

To load a Tone into GearBox so you can hear it, double-click the Tone in one of the lists, or

click a Tone in either list to highlight it, and then click the Load button above its list, or type

the ENTER key on your computer’s keyboard to load it.
Point with your mouse at something in the Tone Locker and look at the Info Bar at the bottom

of the GearBox window for information on it.

PODxt users also have a Right List Shows menu at the top of the Tone Locker to select whether the

right list will show their Online Locker or PODxt Memory. (More on this in the following Memory

List sub-section).
