Mail-In Registration Card on Back Cover

Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for inviting a Stomp Box Modeler home with you. (By the way, you filled out the registration card at the back of this handbook, or did it on our web site – www.line6.com – right? Great. Back to our regular program....) These pedals mine the tonal heritage of the past thirty years of stomp box and effects design and match it up with the kind of digital signal processing magic that will still be ahead of its time ten years from now.

How did the Stomp Box Modelers get the super processing power to let you create tones that are out of this world? It all started like this…

The Birth of Line 6 Modeling

Well, as you may know, Line 6 first came on to the scene with a new kind of guitar amplifier – the first to put digital software modeling technology to work in a combo amp for guitarists. In order to pioneer this technology, we had focused our efforts on the vacuum tube, the little glass wonder that had sat at the heart of most every great guitar amp in history

– plus quite a few stomp boxes, effect processors,

and other pieces of great audio gear. The Line 6 crew assembled a dream collection of amplifiers recognized by guitarists the world over as true “tone classics,” and, with a guitar in one hand and modern computer measuring gear in the other, put these amps through their paces and got them to give up their secrets – a guitar pickup output, after all, is an electronic signal, and tubes and the rest of the guitar amplifier electronics are really just a complex form of signal processing. These electronic explorers thus distilled the noble history of guitar tone heritage into a revolutionary, patented DSP (digital signal processing) software-based modeling technology, which gave Line 6 the power to create super siliconbased life forms like our history-making amplifiers and POD.

Well, it’s been some years since the first Line 6 amp brought modeling to the combo amp world, followed by the Line 6 POD that revolutionized the world of guitar recording. During that time, our thoughts have often turned from our amps to our feet. We started thinking about all those great stomp boxes that have been as much a part of the electric guitar experience as the amplifier. And thus began the Stomp Box Modelers, with their lovingly crafted digital software models of a whole carpet-full of the great effects of guitar history.
