VIRTUAL AMPLIFICATION V-AMP 3 User Manual

(22) 



MIDI OUT/THRU: Sends MIDI information from the V-AMP 3 or directly from 

the MIDI IN jack. 

(23) 



MIDI IN: Receives MIDI signals from a footswitch or other device. 

(24) 



FOOTSWITCH: Plug the FS112V footswitch into this jack with the 

¼" TRS cable. 

The V-AMP 3 offers many options that allow you to route selected parts of 

the signal to the LINE OUT jacks. Some features are well suited for one playing 

situation, but not necessary for others. In order to adapt your device to various 

studio and live applications, you can choose between 5 different operating 

modes (Configurations). Independent of the settings stored in the presets, 

these global operating modes determine how the LINE OUT signal is processed so 

that either stereo operation or unique left and right sends are possible. 

Selecting a configuration
Press the B and D buttons simultaneously to enter configuration mode. 

The display shows the current selection. Use the BANK UP and BANK DOWN arrow 

buttons to select a new configuration. See table for routing options.

When headphones are plugged into the PHONES jack, the V-AMP 3 

automatically switches to Studio 1 (S1) operating mode.

Press the TAP key and turn the GAIN knob to adjust the input sensitivity to 

match the output of your guitar’s pickups. If the CLIP LED lights, the input 

sensitivity must be reduced. Only raise the sensitivity if the pickups have 

particularly weak output. 

To exit configuration mode, press the TUNER/EXIT button. 

Studio 1 (S1)

Stereo operation with selected effects 

and speaker simulations.

V-AMP 3 as practice amp, 

e.g. with headphones.

Recording situation: (V-AMP 3 is 

connected to stereo line channel on 

the mixing console).

Studio 2 (S2)

Left (dry signal, 

only compressor 

plus auto-wah).

Right (with 

modulation, 

delay and 

reverb effects).

Recording situation: with the left 

channel connected to the recording 

device. The right channel is used 

for monitoring only (with effect). 

Advantage: while recording, 

you don't have to specify the effect 

used during the mix-down, but can 

still monitor wet signals.

Live 1 (L1)

Stereo operation + additional 

3-band EQ (adjustable in 

CONFIGURATION mode).

V-AMP 3 connected to a guitar amp 

with stereo input. The additional 

EQ (BASS, MID & TREBLE controls) 

allows you to match the sound to 

the amplifier used. The additional 

EQ does not affect the settings of 

your presets.

Live 2 (L2)

Stereo operation + additional 3-band 

EQ, but without cabinet simulation.

Here, too, the V-AMP 3 can be 

connected to a guitar amp with 

a stereo input. The additional EQ 

(BASS, MID & TREBLE controls) 

allows you to match the sound to the 

amplifier used. However, since no 

cabinet simulation is enabled,  

the speaker sound is determined by 

the combo/cabinet used.

Live 3 (L3)

Left + additional 

3-band EQ with 

modulation, delay 

and reverb effects, 

but without 

cabinet simulation

Right with 

cabinet and 

modulation, 

delay and 

reverb effects, 

but without 

additional 

3-band EQ.

V-AMP 3 as a stage amp, with the 

left output connected to a line input 

on the monitor amp. The additional 

EQ (BASS, MID & TREBLE controls) 

allows you to match the sound 

optimally to the monitor amp. 

The right channel (DI Out) is 

connected to the mixing console 

or stage box and is used for the 

FOH mix.

When using headphones, the V-AMP 3 will automatically switch into Studio 

Mode 1 (S1). This stereo mode works well for both monitoring and recording 

with effects, amp and speaker modeling. If you are certain the tone you have 

selected is what you want permanently recorded, then Studio Mode 1 is a good 

option. This Mode does not apply the 3-band EQ to the signal, but most recording 

programs have advanced graphic EQ capabilities that allow you much more 

precise adjustments. 
In addition to advanced EQ, recording programs often possess high quality 

effects plug-ins that can be tweaked and edited to your heart’s content. 

In this regard, Studio Mode 2 may be a better option to allow the most editing 

flexibility. This configuration sends a signal with amp and speaker simulation in 

both channels, but only the right output has the effects, leaving the left output 

“dry” and ready for editing in your DAW. You may either record both outputs 

to separate tracks, or only record the “dry” left output while monitoring the 

right output.
