First, press the &#8220;PLAY&#8221; button. Now, since we want to start from scratch, first turn the bottom<br \/>\nknob counter-clockwise until you see &#8220;Tag: (none)&#8221; and &#8220;(None)&#8221; as the preset name and then<br \/>\npress the bottom encoder button to clear out all the previous settings.<\/p>\n<p>2. Next, we press the PLAY button and then select AUD1 channel. The default input assignment is<br \/>\nInput A, so this is where we will plug in our guitar and assign the chorus effect. When we clear out<br \/>\nthe system by loading an empty preset, the AUD1 channel is set to off, so it appears like this:<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: The MuseBox defaults are for AUD1 to be assigned to INPUT A, and AUD2 to be assigned<br \/>\nto INPUT B. These assignments can be changed by pressing either the AUD 1 or AUD 2 button,<br \/>\nand then pressing the SETUP button, which allows you to change the assignments to any of the<br \/>\navailable inputs.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: Please be aware that because MuseBox is only a two-channel device, so you can only use<br \/>\nthe front inputs or the rear inputs at the same time. You cannot simultaneously process both the<br \/>\nfront panel and the rear panel inputs. However, you can bring in a signal on the rear panel inputs<br \/>\nand have them mixed passively with the front panel inputs, which is great if you have an MP3<br \/>\nplayer or drum machine that you want to mix in with what you are processing with the front panel<br \/>\ninputs<\/p>\n<p>3. Turn the gain control to minimum on Input A and plug in your guitar. Turn the bottom encoder to<br \/>\nselect &#8220;TAG FX Spectral&#8221; and then turn the top knob to select the preset &#8220;Ac. GtrPhase1&#8221; Press the<br \/>\nencoder button to load the patch. Of course if there is a different chorus you&#8217;d like to use on the<br \/>\nguitar, feel free to select it now.<\/p>\n<p>4. Bring up the gain on Input A, and verify that the green and yellow level indicators light on a<br \/>\nregular basis, but the Red indicator never illuminates<br \/>\n.<br \/>\n5. Now it&#8217;s time to plug in the Microphone into Input B, and select an appropriate compression<br \/>\neffect on that input. Turn the gain control to minimum, plug in the microphone, and if it is a<br \/>\ncondenser microphone that requires 48V phantom power, press the switch to apply phantom power.<\/p>\n<p>6. Now we want to select an appropriate preset for use with the microphone signal. Press the AUD2<br \/>\nbutton, and you will see that the input is turned off:<\/p>\n<p>7. Now turn the bottom knob to select the &#8220;TAG: FX Vocal&#8221;, and select the preset &#8220;Smooth Lead Vox.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>8. Now press the PLAY button to hear both effects simultaneously. Pretty cool, yes?<\/p>\n<p>9. Now bring up the gain on Input B, and adjust the input levels so that the green and yellow<br \/>\nindicators are lit on a regular basis, but not the red one.<\/p>\n<p>10. Press the PLAY button and you will now hear BOTH the guitar and the vocal at the same time.<br \/>\nIf you want to SAVE this combination of effects and input assignments, simply press and hold<br \/>\nthe EDIT button, and you can save this preset to the USER bank by simply pressing the encoder<br \/>\nbutton.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[9673],"manufacturers":[33572],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the Selecting Individual Effect Presets page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/selecting-individual-effect-presets\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Selecting Individual Effect Presets - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Now let&#8217;s make your own custom preset consisting of different effects on different audio inputs.
