STEP 0: Yes sir, you’re not seeing things – this is
STEP 0! Why? Because we’ve got to get
our amp on program 1-1 before we can
start, that’s why! So let’s get it to program
1-1 by the simplest way possible – by call-
ing the sucker up using the amp’s Top
Panel controls! And if you don’t know how
to do this shame on you! What are you
doing messing around with the VC-4 when
you don’t know how to use your amp yet?
It’s all in “the Guitarist’s Guide” that came
with your Valvetronix combo so get learn-
ing!
Right now we’re on program 1-1, we can
begin…
STEP 1: Press down the FX ON & OFF/CHANNEL
switch for more than 1 second. Doing this
will cause the “1” in the BANK DISPLAY to
start blinking. This means we’re ready to
select the bank we want to change to
which is Bank 4 in this instance.
STEP 2: To select Bank 4 merely step on SWITCH
4 on your VC-4. This will cause the Bank
display to change to “4” and start flashing
even faster. This means it is now ready for
you to select the channel you want, which
is 3…
STEP 3: To select Channel 3 merely step on
SWITCH 3.
STEP 4: There isn’t one! Congratulations, you’ve
successfully switched from program 1-1 to
4-3 as your VC-4 will attest – “4” will be
glowing (but not flashing!) brightly in the
BANK DISPLAY and the LED above
SWITCH 3 will be lit up too. Told, you it
was a simple three step process…

As already mentioned, when your VC-4 is in INDI-
VIDUAL MODE it allows you to use SWITCHES 1 –
4 to switch the PEDAL, MODULATION, DELAY and
REVERB sections of your Valvetronix amp on/off
within the program you’re using. When your VC-4 is
in INDIVIDUAL MODE “ ” shows in the DISPLAY
WINDOW.
If “ ” is in the VC-4’s BANK DISPLAY then your
Foot Controller is already in PROGRAM SELECT
MODE. Let’s assume it isn’t and work out how to
get there…
GETTING TO INDIVIDUAL MODE
So, your BANK Display is displaying a bank num-
ber (1-4 or 1.-4.), “ ”, “ ”, “ ” or is flashing and
you want to get it in INDIVIDUAL MODE? Don’t
fret, all you do is one or two of the following easy
things:
1. If the BANK DISPLAY is showing either “ ” or
“ ” it means it is in TUNER MODE. To get out
of it, simply step on the TAP TEMPO switch. This
will return the VC-4 to either INDIVIDUAL MODE
or PROGRAM SELECT MODE. If it goes to
INDIVIDUAL MODE (i.e. the BANK DISPLAY
shows “ ”) you’re ready to roll, if it doesn’t then
read on…
2. If the BANK DISPLAY is showing bank number
(1-4 or 1.-4.) it means that your VC-4 is in PRO-
GRAM SELECT MODE. So, all you have to do is
hit the FX ON & OFF/CHANNEL switch and it’ll
revert to INDIVIDUAL MODE.
3. If the BANK DISPLAY is flashing, it means
you’re halfway through changing banks. To get
out of this and get back to PROGRAM SELECT
MODE all you have to do is press the FX ON &
OFF/CHANNEL switch. Then to get to INDIVID-
UAL MODE merely hit the switch again.
4. If the BANK DISPLAY is showing “ ” it means it
is in MANUAL MODE. As already stated, the
only way to get out of MANUAL MODE is via the
amp. To do so, simply press either the ▲ (UP) or
▼ (DOWN) button on the amp’s Top Panel and
both the amp and the VC-4 will revert to PRO-
GRAM SELECT MODE. Then hit the FX ON &
OFF/CHANNEL switch and you’re in INDIVID-
UAL MODE.
Now we’ve got our VC-4 Foot Controller in INDI-
VIDUAL MODE we can use SWITCHES 1-4 to
turn whatever PEDAL, MODULATION, DELAY
and REVERB effects the program being used
contains. To be specific:
And as you’d hope/expect (delete as you deem
fit!), the relevant LEDs will light up when a sec-
tion is “turned on” and go off when a section is
“turned off.”
SWITCH 1 Switches the PEDAL SECTION on and off
SWITCH 2 Switches the MODULATION SECTION on
and off
SWITCH 3 Switches the DELAY SECTION on and off
SWITCH 4 Switches the REVERB SECTION on and
off
