LINK jack: This jack lets you use a commercially available 3.5 mm mini-phone cable to connect to
another VOX effect pedal that also has a LINK jack. When multiple pedals are connected, turning
one effect pedal on bypasses the other pedals (link function). Use this function as a simple
switcher between other effect pedals in this series.
You can connect up to five units. Do not connect any more than this. If you want to connect
multiple units, use a commercially available splitter cable (you can also use a stereo head-
phone splitter cable). However, you cannot use a splitter cable that divides stereo into L and
R.
Do not make connections using a cable that has a built-in resistor. Doing so might cause mal-
functions.

DC 9V jack: Connect an AC adapter (9 V,
Since this effect pedal requires high current consumption, we recommend that you use the AC
adapter.
7
COMP knob: Adjusts the amount of compression. This interacts with the TUBE GAIN to let you
adjust the texture of the compression.
8
TUBE GAIN knob: Adjusts the volume of signal sent to the Nutube. Raising this level adds
distortion from the Nutube.
9
Mode switch: Selects one of three modes.
VTG (Vintage): Sets a rapid compressor attack time and a slow release time. This mode gives a
high degree of compression, since compression is applied from the attack phase.
NAT (Natural): Sets a slow compressor attack time and a fast release time. This mode gives a
natural nuance, as compression is applied without losing the attack.
SAG (Sagging): This mode offers the natural compression and distortion that you get when play-
ing through a vacuum tube power amp. This is optimal when used in combination with a solid-
state amp, for playing with a light touch.
10
OUTPUT knob: Adjusts the output volume.
