13 - Send 1-2 VU Meters:
TonePort & GuitarPort - These show the level sent to your recording program tracks that are
receiving Send 1-2. If the little indicator at the bottom of each meter lights red, turn down the
RECORD knob and/or turn off the +18 button, because you are clipping your audio, which can
cause harsh, bad sound for your recording.
These indicators will light up red
when the signal is clipping
Note – Gearbox will not display VU Meters when a PODxt is the source device.
14 - Record Send 1-2 controls:
Record knob - controls the level of your GearBox processed Tone that is routed to Record
Send 1-2. this will ultimately control the record level into your audio software for any track
receiving this Send 1-2 signal.
+18 button - Boosts the level of the Record Send – useful if your GearBox signal is a weak
one and you need more level to get a good record level.
Mono button – sums the GearBox stereo Tone to a Mono signal for Record Send 1-2 (the
same mono signal is fed to both Send 1 and 2 channels). Useful if you want to record from
Send 1 or 2 and ensure it is not one side of a stereo signal.
Note – Gearbox will not display the Mono button when a PODxt is the source device.
15 - USB device connection indicator:
TonePort & GuitarPort - This little USB plug icon appears flashing if GearBox does not find a
supported Line 6 USB device connected to the computer.
PODxt - When GearBox is set to use a PODxt source device, a little red PODxt icon is displayed.
If the PODxt device is disconnected or powered off, the icon appears with a question mark.
16 - CPU meter: Shows how much of your computer’s processing power is currently being utilized. If
it reaches the red then you may experience audible dropouts and therefore need to reduce other
processes running, or bypass some GearBox effects.
