[. . . ] Pilot's Guide 40-00-0018 Electrophonic Limited Edition available @ www. line6. com Rev C 10 1 Plug In Here Channel Memories Four programmable channels come pre-loaded with great factory presets. Press one of these buttons to hear them. To store your own "snapshot" of all knob positions (except Master Volume), press and hold one of these four buttons for two seconds. The LED changes to green and then back to red when the save is complete. [. . . ] Noise Gate Press and hold Tap as you turn the Reverb knob up past twelve o'clock, and you turn on a built-in Noise Gate, which helps to cut down on hiss and noise. When you do this, the Channel D LED comes on to indicate that the Gate is on. Special Hidden Functions When you select an Amp Model, Spider II automatically sets its tone controls and effects to match that Amp Model. You can disable the auto-FX selection (but not tone control auto-selection) by powering up Spider II with the Channel D button held. The autoselection is re-enabled next time you power up. Want to know where your Spider II's controls are set in the programmed channels?Hold ­ and keep holding ­ the Tap button. Now, before you do anything else, turn the Amp Models knob. This activates Spider II's "Compare" mode. Now turn any knob other than Amp Model and Master Volume, and the channel lights will tell you whether you need to turn that knob up (Channel A lights) or down (Channel D lights) to match the stored setting. The Channel B & C lights will be lit at the same time once the knob position matches the stored setting exactly. You can reset your Spider II's programmable channels to their factory-programmed states by holding down the Channel A button as you turn on the power. Warning: This will erase ALL custom sounds you might have created. Ask yourself, "Do I really want to do this?" If your answer is yes, then go for it! Tap Button "Extra" Functions The Tap Tempo button, in addition to setting the speed of your delay effects, also lets you access a few extra Spider II features: a Tuner, Distortion Boost and a built-in Noise Gate (the tuner and the boost are also accessible via the optional FBV Shortboard). When CHAN A B C D Using Your Feet The FBV series of foot controllers includes the original FBV--with its extensive effects controls for the Line 6 Vetta amps--and the more-compact FBV Shortboard, which includes all the controls needed for the Spider II. Also available are the FBV4 for channel switching and tap and FBV2 for channel scroll. Note that the Line 6 Floor Board and FB4 foot controllers will not work with Spider II. FBV footcontrollers come with an included RJ-45 cable. Connect this cable between the front panel of the Spider II and the side of the FBV. If you ever need a replacement cable, look for a Category 5, 10 Base-T or RJ-45 cable with male connectors on both ends. These can be found at almost any computer supply retailer. FBV2: The FBV2 functions as a two button channel scroll foot switch. This foot switch allows you to scroll through the 4 channels (the A, B, C & D buttons) of your Spider II.
