and create your own individual Tones. Tone 1 is always on, and you can optionally click the Dual Tone

button at the top of GearBox to additionally toggle on Tone 2 to enter Dual Tone mode. Note there

are different configurations for a Dual Tone setting, depending on how you choose to feed the POD X3

physical inputs into these two Tone paths:

Process two completely independent Tones for two separate inputs at the same time, such as

•

your guitar plus a microphone. We like to refer to this Dual Tone configuration as a tone “Pair”

- or...
Use two completely independent Tones on a single input. This is like running through two amps

•

at once! We call this a tone “Blend”.

Using the GearBox (or on-board POD X3) Pan, Volume and Mute controls for each Tone 1 and Tone

2, you can customize how you want each Tone fed out to the Left & Right channel outputs and Record

Sends.

Note: For more info about the POD X3 Dual Tone concept, please check out your

What are the Effects?

GearBox includes nine simultaneous Effects - A.I.R., Comp, Delay, Gate, Mod, Stomp, Verb, Vol

(Volume Pedal) and Wah. When you load a Tone from GearBox’s Tone Menu, the Effects will be set

to the settings saved for that Tone. Saving a Tone will save all the effect settings with the Tone.

Clicking the arrow to the left of the Gate icon shows and hides the Effects control panel.

•

Click directly on the ON/OFF portion of the Gate, Wah, Stomp, Delay, Mod, Comp, EQ, and

•

Verb icons to toggles the effect On or Off. The Volume, Amp/Mic/ER and Send 3-4 icons do not

turn on/off. (For TonePort UX8, you’ll see a Send 11-12 icon rather than a “3-4” icon).
Clicking the top portion of an effect icon to will also cause its controls to be displayed in the

•

Effects control panel – this is independent of toggling the effect On/Off.
You can also select a particular effect for display in the Control Panel by selecting it from the

•

menu just below the Gate icon, or by right-clicking the effect (Windows

®

) or control-clicking

(Mac

®

).
